Chapter 250 Who Else Could It Be
Before Denise could march off to go deal with her father's mistress, Jenifer grabbed her hand and held her in place.
"Stop acting rashly, Denise.It has nothing to do with her."
"Then why have you been looking so sad day after day?" Jenifer sighed.She had no choice but to tell her daughter the real reason for her depression.
Denise was stunned.
"Wait, Mom.Do you mean Grandpa asked you to drug Becky?"
But Jenifer quickly put her hand over her mouth to shut her up.
"Stop saying it out loud for everyone to hear! Your grandpa told me very clearly that I must not tell anyone!"
"Wow.So, is Grandpa that desperate to have Becky back in the family?"
Jenifer didn't respond, but Denise could tell it meant yes. This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .
Before Jenifer could stop her, Denise took the bottle from the dressing table.
"Mom, you can't drug her.If you do it, Rory and Becky will hate you forever.But don't worry.I'll take care of it.All you have to do is ask Betty out and then tell me about it."
With that, Denise ran out of the room with the bottle to prevent her mother from getting it back.
Looking at Denise's retreating figure, Jenifer began to regret telling her about it.
In the manager's office at Fairway Group "Miss Ramos, Jenifer Casper has asked to see you again."
Hearing Talia's words, Becky raised her eyebrows and said, "I'm busy."
She wondered what the Casper family was up to.
Rory and Denise no longer bothered her.
Now, it was Jenifer.
This was the second time that Jenifer had asked to see her.
Even though Becky had been her daughter-in-law for three long years, that was all in the past now.
Since she had divorced Rory, there was no need for her to meet with his mother.
Talia nodded, but she didn't leave.
Seeing that Talia was still in her office, Becky raised her eyebrows questioningly.
"Is there anything else?"
"The land in the north of the city is currently the most trending topic on social media."
Becky was surprised.
"Wow.That's a good thing.It's free publicity, you know."
But Talia didn't look as happy as her boss was.
Apparently, she had more to say.
"Many people are beginning to question how you got the land.They're saying Rory asked Keenan to give up the land and gave him a project as compensation."
"There's nothing to worry about.It was true," Becky said with a careless shrug.
The rumor peddlers had gotten tired of spreading the news about actors, so they paid attention to Becky.
Either way, Becky didn't give a damn.She liked the free publicity.
It would help to put the project she had in mind in the spotlight, which would save her a lot of expenses in terms of hiring publicists.
Seeing that Becky was not concerned about the matter, Talia let it drop and didn't bring it up again.But in her mind, she felt the Casper family was behind this.
A few days ago, after Rory and Devin had apologized to Becky for their fight on her father's birthday, the public preferred Devin and urged Becky to choose him.But now, more and more people chose Rory over Devin.
Who else could it be behind this than the Casper family? If Talia could figure it out so easily, Becky could, too.She just didn't care.
After all, she would never allow the internet to influence her life.
After the news was exposed, people began to talk about the love and hate between Rory and Becky again.
Aiken, who had also been following the matter like everyone else, felt that Rory was getting smarter.
It was only after he called to congratulate him that he found that Rory had no idea about the rumors.
After he got off the phone with Aiken, Rory’s face became gloomy like a horizon with storm clouds hanging over it.
Just then, Lowell walked in.
Finding his boss in such a mood, he stood there, wondering whether to come back at a better time or just talk to him.But eventually, he summoned up the courage to do the latter.
"Mr.Casper?"
Rory looked up and noticed Lowell's presence.
But instead of asking what he wanted, he simply got up and said, ‘I'm going home.I'll be back in the afternoon."
After saying that, Rory walked out of the office.
Lowell just stood there, unable to say anything.
The look on Rory's face and the tone of his voice were clear indications that it was not the safest of times to talk to him.
Lowell could only stand there and watch him leave.
