Chapter 248


    Chapter 248 I Don''t Think She Wants to See Me


    What Elmore heard from Rory was so annoying to him that he felt like throwing his phone at the


    wall.


    As far as he was concerned, his grandson was an idiot! Aplete Idiot! Devin refused to give up


    even after Becky told him she didn''t care for him.


    But Rory chose to give up after facing only a few minor obstacles.


    What a weak moron! Regardless of how angry he was with his grandson, Elmore knew that Rory


    had simply lost confidence.He knew how good Devin was when it came to scheming and ying


    mind games on others.He had somehow managed to get most people on his side.


    It was just crazy! Elmore couldn''t understand it.


    But one thing he knew for sure was that he would never stand by and watch Becky marry Devin.


    Four years ago, Becky had made the choice to marry into the Casper family.


    If it was possible then, it could as well be possible now.


    He leaned back on the sofa and started to think.


    It wasn''t long before an idea floated into his head.


    "Carl, ask Jenifer toe over here."


    Carl nodded respectfully and darted off on the errand.He found Jenifer sitting with Denise and


    listening to her talk about the recent trending subjects on the inte.


    Jenifer was a quiet and sensible woman who avoided drama at all costs.


    And with the inte being a ce for drama, she didn''t think much of the strangers’ments.


    But Denise was a different case entirely.


    She took thosements very seriously and she was very upset by the fact that people called her


    a troublemaker.


    If she hadn''t been whipped not long ago, she would have talked back already.


    She strongly believed that it was Becky who was behind all of the hate directed against her and she


    said as much to her mother.


    "Come on, stop talking nonsense.Do you want to get punished again?"


    Jenifer scolded her.


    Heeding her mother''s warning, Denise promptly kept quiet.She would have loved to speak her


    mind, but she didn''t dare risk any further punishment.

    Jenifer sighed and turned to Carl.


    "What''s the matter, Carl?"


    "I have no idea.Mr.Casper just asked to see you in his study."


    "Oh, okay." Jenifer nodded.


    Then she stood up and promptly went with him.


    When they got to the study, Carl knocked on the door.


    "Come in," Elmore called out immediately.


    Clearly, he had been waiting impatiently for them.


    Carl pushed the door open and ushered Jenifer in.


    Jenifer was a little scared of Elmore.She walked into the study, her mind a bit uneasy as she


    wondered what he wanted to say to her.


    "Have a seat," Elmore said and nodded at a chair nearby.


    After Jenifer had taken her seat, Elmore cleared his throat and picked up a box from the table and


    handed it to her.


    "You''re Rory’s mother.Like me, ! believe you wish for him to live as good a life a man can live.I like


    Becky very much and I want her to be my granddaughter-inw again.And I remember you both got


    along nicely back then.Rory is too proud to coax Becky.So, it falls to you, his mother, to step in and


    help him."


    Jenifer was confused.


    She understood what he had said about Rory, but she didn''t understand how it had anything to do


    with her or what he wanted her to do.


    "I don''t understand what you mean."


    Elmore, being already in a foul mood, was further annoyed by the fact that Jenifer could not


    understand something he felt was clear and straightforward.But he tried to act like he wasn''t


    angry.He couldn''t afford to scare her off since he needed her assistance.


    "Jenifer, you were Becky''s mother-inw for three years.You have every excuse to reestablish


    contact with her."


    It finally dawned on Jenifer.She now knew what Elmore had been trying to say.


    "But I don''t think Becky wants to see me," she pointed out, Jenifer might be soft, but she was no


    fool.


    In the Casper family, she could easily be seen as another Becky, only that shecked the spirit and


    courage Becky had.


    As a result, she could only put up with her husband''s affairs.She was smart enough to know how


    Becky felt.


    Frankly, if she was in Becky''s shoes, she wouldn''t want anything more to do with the Casper family


    either.


    "She''ll agree to see you after some time if you put in a little effort" Elmore said in an effort to


    persuade her.


    It was clear what Elmore wanted Jenifer to do.He wanted her not just to talk to Becky but to talk to


    her on Rory''s behalf.


    But as difficult as the task was, Jenifer couldn''t dare think of disobeying her strict and fearsome


    father-inw.


    "Okay, I''ll try," she said reluctantly and stood up to leave the room.


    "Wait.Take this with you.You can use it when Becky finally agrees to see you.And make sure you


    remember to tell me when that happens."


    Jenifer took the small bottle he handed to her and looked at it suspiciously.


    "But what''s this?"


    "What are you afraid of? It won''t kill.It''s not poison.You know how stubborn and impulsive young


    people are nowadays.So, it''s necessary for us to give them a little push sometimes.When they get


    to our age and be as sensible as we are now, they will be very grateful for what we did for


    them," Elmore said and leaned back with a satisfied smile.


    Taking onest nce at him, Jenifer couldn''t help but shiver involuntarily.


    This father-inw of hers was a demon!
