Divorce Has Never Felt This Good

Rory wasn’t surprised when Elmore sent for him. But what Elmore said surprised him greatly.

“You want me to marry Becky again?”

“Raina is no good. Don’t tell me you are going to choose her over Becky,” Elmore said angrily.

Rory didn’t want to marry Raina. But Becky was not an option either!

After all the drama that had transpired between him and Becky, Rory thought it unwise to go back to her. “I will not marry Becky.”

Elmore growled. “How dare you! Are you blind? Can’t you see that Becky still loves you? This is the only reason for her angry outbursts. Tender a sincere apology to her and say things that she would love to hear. Maybe coupled with Denise’s apology, Becky will forgive us.”

Rory said nothing. He knew that Elmore wouldn’t hear him out no matter what he said. Rory had always known his grandfather to be a very stubborn man.

“Are you deaf?” Elmore demanded, lifting his walking stick and bringing it down on Rory’s thigh. “Do you not hear me? Raina and her sister are both scheming women. No good will come out of marrying Raina. Becky, on the other hand, is from an influential background. She is more than enough for you, and most importantly, still loves you. This is why she will readily accept a sincere apology from you and marry you again.”
