Divorce Has Never Felt This Good novel Chapter 221

Rory paused for a moment. But he didn’t turn around to look at Devin’s face to check if he was being serious.

Rory and Devin had been opponents for so many years, so they knew each other quite well. If he were to turn around and see the expression on Devin’s face, he would know Devin meant what he said.

But he resisted the temptation to turn around.

Instead, Rory resumed walking and left the hotel as fast as he could. Frankly, even he could not explain to himself why he didn’t turn around to look at Devin. He just had the gut feeling that he shouldn’t. And he followed his gut without thinking twice.

It was night. The lights in Bluepond were bright and could be seen from afar. And there were quite a number of people milling around too.

When he finally brought his car to a halt, Rory looked around and found that he was in the suburbs. He had not intended to come here, but now that he was here, it didn’t look so bad.

The environment was very quiet. There were no sounds, except that of other cars driving past him on the road.

It was already dark, so Rory simply decided to drive over to an open space in front of a small restaurant nearby. Then he rolled down the windows, put a cigarette in his mouth and lit it.

As the smoke swirled, the words of Becky and Devin intertwined, and Rory suddenly became panic.

But the feeling of restlessness did not last long. When he finished smoking, his mind became calm and everything returned to normal.

He could see now that seeing troubles where there were none was the most stupid and unnecessary thing anyone could do.

After getting rid of the cigarette butt, Rory started his car and left the suburbs, heading straight back to the city.

The online frenzy concerning Devin’s new girlfriend had died down by now, but not before it spread among the upper class like wildfire. Prior to this, the fact that Devin was chasing Becky had been the main topic of discussion. Though he tried his best to keep a low profile, it was still clear to them that Devin had not given up on chasing Betty.

But now, Devin got himself a new girlfriend.
