Chapter 228


    Becky’s words had little effect. Devin and Rory stopped for a moment, but they soon resumed


    fighting again.

    One of the guests came out from the hall to investigate the source of the loud bang. In a matter of


    minutes, others came out too. More and more people kepting to watch the men fight.


    The situation had clearly gone out of control by now and there was nothing Becky could do about it


    anymore.


    In fact, she didn’t want to have anything to do with it. She just wanted to distance herself away from


    it all and let them fight till eternity if they wished.


    But then, that was easier said than done. There was no way she couldpletely dissociate herself


    from the ongoing battle. For crying out loud, the participants in this brawl were Devin and Rory.


    She overheard someone in the crowd saying that Devin and Rory were fighting for her.


    With an expressionless face, Becky called for a waiter and asked him to bring the security guards to


    separate Devin and Rory. Nobody else in the party would dare to attempt the separation of those


    two.


    Both men were rich and powerful. Getting on their bad side would not be a good idea for anyone.


    But before the security guards even arrived at the scene, there was a loud groan from someone


    nearby. Becky quickly turned around and she saw that Devin had fallen to the ground.


    Since this was an event being hosted by her family, there was no way for Becky to ignore what had


    just happened. She couldn’t just walk away like that.


    The fall of Devin had also made it impossible for her to just stand there and watch. She had to take


    direct action now, regardless of how much she hated it.


    Becky took a deep breath and walked over to Devin. “Devin, are you okay?”


    Devin was still conscious and he grabbed her hand when he heard her voice. “I just feel a little


    dizzy.”


    People in the crowd began to condemn Rory. They felt he had been mean and cruel for knocking


    Devin out so hard. They had seen when hended a particrly heavy blow on him even though


    Devin was struggling to find his bnce at the time.


    But Rory ignored the murmurings behind him and looked down with a gloomy face at his rival lying


    on the ground.


    It was actually Devin who hadnded heavy punches on him!


    He only punched Devin’s shoulder, face, and other less vital parts. The corner of Devin’s mouth was


    bleeding only because there was a wound on his lip.


    But Devin had punched him on his stomach several times. No one had seen those punches due to


    the position in which the men had been standing while they were trading blows.


    The only thing everyone took particr notice of was Rory’s retaliatory punch that had sent Devin to


    the ground.


    The security guards finally arrived, but they were no longer needed. Becky had already called for an


    ambnce. Soon, Stevie and others who had remained inside the hall came out to see what the


    ruckus was all about. One nce at the scene was enough to tell Stevie all he needed to know. He


    looked at Rory and snorted in anger. Even though he said nothing, it was clear to everyone present


    that he was furious and trying his best not to show it.


    Since there was a hospital nearby, it would take only a few minutes for an ambnce to arrive at


    the scene. But when the ambnce came, Devin was found to be unconscious. He had to be


    carried into the ambnce on a stretcher.


    Rory looked down at him with a frown as Devin was being lifted onto the stretcher. But as the


    stretcher was about to be carried into the ambnce, he saw Devin smiling smugly.


    Devin was faking it!


    Almost involuntarily, Rory turned to look at Becky.


    The crowd was quickly dispersed by Stevie and the security guards. When almost everyone had


    left, Becky marched up to Rory andnded a stinging p on his face. “Do you know why I pped


    you?”


    When he saw her approaching him, Rory was nning to tell Becky that Devin was faking his loss


    of consciousness, but the p shut him up.


    Becky looked down at her face and sighed. She looked so beautiful tonight. He had never seen her


    look this beautiful before. All night, he had been seeking an opportunity topliment her, but


    Devin had ended up beating him to it.


    Now that he was nning to expose Devin for the faker that he was, Beckynded a p on his


    face. Again, Devin had gotten on her good books ahead of him. Becky now saw him as nothing but


    a troublemaker.


    “Yes, I know why,” Rory answered in a soft tone. He kept his eyes on Becky, waiting for her to


    continue talking.


    But Becky said nothing more. She only gave him a cold look and turned on her heels, leaving him


    there alone in the garden.
