Chapter 292 I Don’t Deserve That

Upon hearing Becky’s words, Rory was shocked, his mouth agape. He peered into the pair ofdisdainful eyes staring back at him with no light or tendemess. The pain was too much. It was as ifhe was stabbed right into hisheart. He uttered, “No.” “Oh? What do you want to talk about, then?”Becky snapped.Rory then shifted his gaze to Becky’s left hand, her ring finger, tobe specific. Rightafter they got divorced, there used to be a mark of the ring, which faded away with time, Almost ayear had gone by, after all. A heavy feeling washed over Rory. “I just want to say sorry toyou.” Hethen raised his head, studying the woman with him. Becky smiled, “No. I don’t deserve that.” Shepulled out her phone after it vibrated several times in herbag. It was Jessie flooding her inbox.Without checking them, she excused herself impatiently. “If you don’t have anything else tosay, Il betaking my leave.” “Don’t you want to know who drugged you that night?” Becky shook her head.“Even you can’t replace out. I don’t think I can.”After the incident, Becky had someone investigate butfailed toreplace a trace of whoever did that to her. She had just graduated college back then. Her prettyface was no reason to subject her to such treatment on that occasion. She once thought maybe arich man fell in love with her and resorted to using a dirty trick to get her. She crossed it out sincethemen who tried to talk to her that night were all decent guys. Besides, everyone at that party camefor business. No one had a motive to drug her, given that she didn’t upset anyone there. The most acceptable case for Becky was that it was an unluckynight where she might have takensomeone else’s drink bymistake. Four years had passed, and Becky didn’t want to bring upanythingabout it to Rory. Her sarcastic remark painted a grim expression on Rory. Takingin the chilling aurafrom Becky, he decided not to push herfurther. Instead, he offered, “Let me drive you back.”. “No,thanks. I’ve called a designated driver. The driver will behere any minute now.” Becky refused.“Rory, we’re divorced. Ibelieve that should have been clear to you by now. It was just anaccident. Ifound the person who drugged me, and you too. Asfor how you’re going to deal with Betsy, it’s yourbusiness.”Becky meant every word, still disgusted by the two nights thatshe was drugged. “Becky!”Rory called out after her. Becky stopped, but she didn’t turn around.. What she said to Rory was not

a lie because she did have adesignated driver on the way.. “You don’t have any feelings for me now,do you?” Rory asked. It was rare for Becky to be stunned. She didn’t expect a man ascold andruthless as Rory would ask such a question. With that, Becky veered herself and sneered, glaring athim.”We’re divorced. What don’t you get about that?”. They were within arm’s reach, so near yet sofar.. Even under the dim light, Rory could see the contempt in her eyes.
