Chapter 234
Chapter 234 He Doesn't Hate Her Now
Aiken's words were like a knife stabbing Rory's heart.
But Aiken gave him another blow.
"You had a fight with Devin, but how come you don't have any bruises on your face?"
As soon as Aiken finished speaking, a thought suddenly occurred to him.
"Devin hit you in the gut.l saw it in the video.You hit him in plain sight, while he hit you in a spot people can't see.How ironic!"
Rory's expression clouded over.
"Is it so difficult for you to stay quiet?"
"Hey, don't get angry at me! I'm not the one who hit you.Devin's such a scheming bastard.He hurt you secretly, but Becky felt sorry for him, not you."
Aiken then looked at his friend pitifully.
"You humiliated yourself and helped Devin get closer to Becky.Do you really hate Becky, Rory?" "Get out!”
Aiken's insight pissed Rory off even more.
Rory had only punched Devin in the first place because he saw Devin trying to kiss Becky.
Yet things took a turn for the worse.
Devin had Becky's concern, whereas Rory looked like a sore loser who fled the scene.
Nobody knew who originally posted the video of the fight online, but it had circled the Internet quickly.
As soon as Elmore caught wind of it, he ordered Carl to call Rory.
Carl tried to call Rory several times, but no one answered.
Elmore was so angry that he couldn't fall asleep that night.
After calling Stevie to apologize, he sat in the study until it was more than eleven o'clock. Elmore usually went to bed at around ten o'clock.
Glancing at the clock worriedly, Carl said, "Mr.Casper, it's almost twelve o'clock.”
Elmore looked up at him and grunted, "Give me my phone."
Knowing that Elmore was going to try to call Rory again, Carl had to hand over his phone. Elmore pushed his glasses up the bridge of his nose and tapped on Rory's number.
Aiken had fallen silent.
Finally, Rory had a moment of peace, though it didn't last long.
At that moment, his phone suddenly started to ring.It was Elmore calling.
When Rory landed in Courtbush, he saw that he had several missed calls from Carl.uovelesook. ¢omHe knew why they tried to call.
At the time, he was too upset to explain himself, so he didn't bother to call his grandfather back.He didn't expect that EImore would try to call him again so late in the night.
Aiken also raised his head when he heard the ringing phone.
When he saw the caller ID, he raised his eyebrows and left the ward knowingly.
Rory gripped his phone in his hand tightly for a long time before finally answering it.
"Grandpa."
"I asked you to go to Stevie's birthday party, not to get into a goddamned fight! Rory, you don't want to get Becky back, do you?"
Rory pursed his lips and muttered, "Sorry, Grandpa."
"What happened anyway? Did Devin say something to offend you?" Rory didn't answer.
Elmore waited for a while, but he was only met with silence.
In a fit of rage, he slammed his fist on the table.
"Rory, are you deaf?"
"It's late, Grandpa.You should be in bed.”
Before Rory could hang up on him, Elmore's angry voice sounded from the other end of the line. "You don't want to get Becky back?" Rory paused.
He wanted to say no, but in the end, he found himself unable to utter a word.He didn't know why, but he couldn't bring himself to hate Becky.
