Divorce Has Never Felt This Good

Rory lowered his gaze to study Becky. When he looked into her beautiful eyes, something stung his heart.

Her gaze on him was frigid. But her grin was sweet and endearing when she was with Devin.

A wave of overwhelming emotion washed over Rory. He tried to shake it off but failed. “You’re the writer of ‘Only I Know’, right?”

Becky was stunned for a while. She had thought Rory came here to blame her for Denise’s sake.

She laughed and said, “You are hilarious. I have no idea how you think I drew that, given my little artistic ability. It’s obvious that it was created by someone who used her own personal experiences as inspiration. For the whole duration of high school, the author secretly loved a guy. I’m curious as to why you believe this project pertains to us. Or are you so egotistical that you believe that I fell in love with you when you were 17?”

Becky’s comments managed to break Rory’s composure. He approached her, but she didn’t back down. He didn’t stop until he was mere inches away from her.

Rory fixed her with an intense gaze. “Then tell me this; why does the hero look exactly like the sketch you made for me?”

Becky was stunned for a second, but she quickly recovered and said, “Maybe you should ask the painter.”

“The painting styles are the same.”

Rory would be able to see it.
