Divorce Has Never Felt This Good

As the tow truck pulled to a stop, Talia approached Becky and said, “Miss Ramos, the tow truck’s here. You can go back with Miss Walker.”

Becky didn’t want to waste her breath with Devin, so she said, “Okay.”

She gestured at Jessie and then walked towards Talia’s car.

Devin stopped her. “If you take your assistant’s car, what will she drive on the way back? It’s so late. It’s not safe for a woman to take a taxi at this hour.”

As much as Becky hated to admit it, Devin’s words made sense.

She paused just as she was about to open the car door. Then, Jessie, who was standing beside her, clicked her tongue and said, “What else can we do? Mr. Stanley, are you offering us a ride?”

“It’d be my honor.”

Becky glanced at Talia. She knew that she couldn’t leave Talia alone like this, so she agreed.

“Thank you, Mr. Stanley.” Becky smiled at Devin.

She gave Talia back her car keys and then got in Devin’s car.

Jessie sat in the back seat.

With a guilty conscience, Jessie avoided her gaze and turned her head to look out of the window.
