Divorce Has Never Felt This Good

Becky wasn’t expecting to meet Rory. Not because she was guilty, but because she just didn’t want to see his face as a reminder of their failed marriage.

Besides, she was holding Stevie’s arm.

Stevie had always protected her, ever since she was a child. When she was in middle school, he had been asked to talk to the teacher because she had fought with other students. The first thing he had done was ask her if she was injured. Only then had he gone into other details before finally asking her to apologize.

It was hard to define who was right and who was wrong in her and Rory’s relationship. She had been the one who insisted on marrying him.

But Rory hadn’t considered her to be his wife over the past three years. He hadn’t protected her once.

When she just had divorced him, Stevie would have gotten even with the Casper family if she hadn’t stopped him.
