Divorce Has Never Felt This Good

Chapter 217

Carlee wanted to say something else but thought better of it when Devin pleaded with her. “Okay,” she said. “I’ll ask someone to delete it now.”

How did a smart man like Devin act so foolishly after he met Becky?

Carlee wanted to record the call and play it later for Becky.

It was unbelievable to Carlee that Devin, a man who was usually dignified and unresponsive to others, could now call and beg her for anything. After the call ended, Carlee talked to her secretary and asked the woman to delete the news.

The popular Twitter news search about Devin’s girlfriend had only been active for two and a half hours before being deleted inexplicably.

Many people did not get to see the face of Devin’s new girlfriend. It was widely believed that the pursuit of Becky had just been a meaningless display for Devin, and his true love was this new girlfriend. It certainly seemed so with how much he had done to protect her.

Carlee couldn’t help but feel some guilt over Devin when she read the comments online. Even though she and Nolan were not on speaking terms, she still called him for help right away.

It also angered Jessie to see the search online. She had wanted to send the screenshots to Becky, but she knew it would only make her friend upset.

Louisa encouraged Jessie not to get too involved. “Even if Devin is a jerk, we don’t have a reason to blame him for what he did. Becky doesn’t either.”

Jessie was about ready to start cursing at Devin, but what Louisa told her made her pause. “I guess you’re right,” she said instead.

Becky had never accepted Devin anyway. He had only pursued her. The best thing Becky could do was to pretend like it didn’t bother her.

If Becky tried to cause any trouble, people would only say she was a bitch who neither accepted Devin nor allowed him to chase another woman.

Becky put it out of her mind instead and ignored the fact that the popular search mentioned her name. She didn’t care. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Stevie, Becky’s father, was not so nonchalant about the whole thing. His daughter’s feelings had been severely disturbed by Rory before, and now this new scumbag, Devin, hurt her too.

It made Stevie extremely angry to think that Devin had been chasing his daughter and now he suddenly had a new girlfriend. He called Devin’s father in a fit of rage.

The Stanley family was also big, just like the Ramos family, so their paths had crossed in the business world in the past. Even though Devin’s father, Webster Stanley, had not been in business for years, he and Stevie remained friends.

Webster knew how deeply Stevie loved his daughter. The man had been traveling abroad with his wife when Stevie told him on the phone what Devin did to Becky. Webster exploded in anger. “That jerk! Don’t worry, Stevie. I’m going to return home right now and make him apologize on his knees to Becky!”

Webster’s response made Stevie feel a little better. For three whole years, the Casper family had done nothing but bully Becky. On the other hand, Webster didn’t defend his son.

As Stevie began to calm down, his attitude softened a bit. He was better able to explain the situation. “They should be free to love who they want. As parents, we should stay out of it, but it looks shameful that Devin chased after Becky just days ago and then suddenly has a new girlfriend.

People who know what happened may not make a big deal out of it, but strangers will ridicule them. It is all over the Internet about the humiliation Becky is suffering at the hands of Devin. I am not unreasonable, Webster, but Becky is my only daughter. Devin wronged her this time. Don’t you think so?”

Webster’s attitude remained angry. “Don’t say that. It is Devin’s fault, and I will make sure we clear all of this up to your satisfaction. Don’t worry about it, Stevie. I’m going to hang up right now and call Devin. I’m going to demand that he apologize to Becky!”

Webster was a decisive man.

The phone suddenly went dead as he hung up.
