Divorce Has Never Felt This Good Chapter 160
Chapter 160
Raina and Babette remained with the silence Elmore left behind in the ward.
“What should we do now, Babette?” Raina asked.
Babette’s mind was a mess. She looked at the bank card on the table.
Fifty million dollars meant nothing to the Casper family. Elmore wanted to drive them away, but he didn’t want to spend a lot of money.
But Babette knew that it would be difficult for Raina to marry into the Casper family, given the current circumstances.
Elmore’s parting words had been quite vicious, too.
If Raina insisted on marrying Rory, Babette would no longer be a member of the Casper family. But if Raina took the money and left, Babette could still be Mrs. Casper.
Babette had wanted Raina to marry into the Casper family only because she wanted to be a part of the family again.
But Babette was hesitant now since the Casper family still recognized her as one of them even if Raina would not marry Rory.
“Babette!” Raina called loudly, interrupting Babette’s train of thought just as Babette was going to ask Raina to accept the money and give up.
Babette looked up at Raina, guilt written all over her face. “Raina, listen to me. This old man…”
“I know what you are thinking,” Raina interrupted her. “You think there’s no way I can marry into the Casper family now, so you’re thinking that it would be better for you to continue as Mrs. Casper than
lose everything. But Babette, don’t forget that your husband is dead. What’s the use of that title? You think you can use the Casper family’s money?”
Raina had given voice to Babette’s thoughts, which embarrassed and angered Babette. “So what’s your plan? Don’t forget that getting rid of us will be as easy as killing an ant for them. Don’t tell me you want to be sent abroad again!”
Raina took her time to calm down before saying, “You know what? Meeting Elmore today is a chance handed to us on a platter.”
Babette frowned. “What do you mean?”
Raina whispered something in Babette’s ear.
Babette hesitated as he heard what Raina had to say. “Do you think it will work?” she asked skeptically.
“Don’t worry. It will definitely work!”
Babette gritted her teeth as she considered this. “Fine. There’s no other way now anyway.”
The sisters continued to discuss their next plan in a low voice.
Meanwhile, Becky had calmed down after attending a meeting.
To her, the bidding that was to take place the next day was more important. “Has Keenan been doing anything lately?”
Keenan would be Becky’s biggest competitor in tomorrow’s bid. She had already asked Talia to keep an eye on him.
Talia brought Becky up to date with Keenan’s latest activities and said, “There is nothing unusual at present.”
Becky nodded. “I see.”
She went back to her office and immediately got busy dealing with two urgent documents. Only then did she get the chance to leave the office.
When Becky walked out, she found that it was raining. There was a spare umbrella in the office, but she didn’t want to go back to get it. It wasn’t raining very heavily, just a drizzle. She tugged at her windbreaker and decided to take a taxi.
“Why don’t you care about your health?”
A black umbrella appeared over her head the moment she walked out into the rain, accompanied by a familiar male voice. Becky turned and her eyes met a pair of familiar, smiling eyes.
Becky smiled sheepishly and said, “There’s a taxi! It would only take me a few seconds to run and get into the car. I won’t get wet.”
She had barely finished speaking when someone got into the taxi she was pointing at.
Devin clicked his tongue. “What now?” NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.
Becky blinked and replied, “It seems that I have to bother you again, Devin.”
Devin stared at her before handing her the umbrella and saying, “I’ll bring my car.”
He then walked into the rain.
Becky held onto the umbrella, wondering what had just happened.
The handle was still warm, but it felt scalding hot to her skin. She quickly moved her hand to avoid it.
