Divorce Has Never Felt This Good

Jessie knew that Becky would come tonight, but she hadn’t expected her to show up so soon.

Jessie hadn’t slept well since she had said what she shouldn’t have said before Rory.

But what had been done could not be undone. She couldn’t withdraw her words now. She couldn’t go back in time and make sure that Rory and the others didn’t hear her.

Jessie felt guilty when she saw Becky. “You’re here,” she said.

Becky had been friends with Jessie for more than twenty years and knew her well.

She knew from Jessie’s expression that she had caused trouble. “Have you been busy of late?”

Ever since Jessie had shut down her studio, she had become a typical leisurely rich lady.

There was no way she had been busy.

But Jessie felt guilty now and was also afraid that she would say more wrong things. “No, I’m not busy. See! I came here to help Louisa today!”

Becky’s eyebrows shot up and she looked at Jessie, a faint smile playing on her lips. “Tell me. What’s wrong?”

She paused and added, “It’s okay if you don’t tell me. I’ll know about it sooner or later.”
