Chapter 238: Devin Is Smarter Than You
Unlike Becky, the Casper family were not very happy with some of the recent developments.
The reason was simple.
After Rory posted his apology on Twitter, Devin also posted his own apology.
But he didn't just apologize; he went on to point out that he was still single.
He claimed that this was due to the fact that he was yet to get the girl he truly loved.
Anyone who had heard about Devin chasing Becky would know the girl Devin was referring to was none other than Becky.
Rory's apology had been posted in the morning, and Devin had released his in the afternoon. People saw it as a battle of words.
Both statements were completely different in terms of composition, but it was clear that they both had feelings for Becky.
Actually, Rory's apology had not been drafted by Rory himself.
Instead, it had been drafted by Elmore while all Rory did was post it.
After the apology was released online, Elmore had assigned someone to monitor the public's reaction.
Many people wanted Rory and Becky to remarry.
They believed that the pair still loved each other and they also felt that it would be good for the two rich and powerful families to be united again.
Naturally, there were also those who objected to the idea of Rory and Becky coming together again. They felt that the Casper family didn't have good intentions.
They felt that Becky, being good-looking and rich, should try her prospects elsewhere and not go back to repeating her past mistakes.
Seeking to drown any voices opposing the idea of Rory and Becky getting remarried, Elmore ordered Carl to hire some people who would be tasked with drumming up more support for the idea by spreading rumors of their imminent remarriage.
Soon, these rumors effectively killed any talk of Rory and Becky not getting together.
Elmore was satisfied.
His goal had almost been achieved.
All he had to do now was nudge Rory and Becky a little bit.
He was sure that with sufficient pressure, they would soon get back together as husband and wife. So far, everything had gone according to plan, but one thing he had not expected was Devin posting an apology of his own right after Rory"'s was released.
The most annoying part was that every word of Devin's statement seemed like he was presenting a direct challenge to Rory.
In a matter of hours, people made an unexpected U-turn in terms of their opinion.
One enthusiast who had been following the issue online for a long time came out to claim that he had read almost all of Becky's and Rory’s posts since their divorce.
He put out a very long post, comprehensively analyzing Becky's situation for the last eight months, and in the end, he concluded that Devin was far better than Rory in every aspect.
Instantly, the analysis went viral and it quickly became the most trending thing after Devin's apology.
It wasn't long before it came to Elmore's attention
After he read it, the old man became livid with anger.
The analysis contained several reasons why Becky shouldn't remarry Rory.
And three of those reasons had to do with the Casper family.
The first of the reasons was that Elmore was not kind.
The writer argued that if he had been kind, he wouldn't have allowed Denise to bully Becky.
The second reason was that Denise was a troublemaker.
The writer pointed out that no one could bear to have someone like her as 4 sister-in-law.
Even after Becky divorced her brother, she did not stop giving Becky trouble.
According to the writer, Becky did not deserve to be married into a family with such people.
The third reason outlined in the analysis was that the Casper family had a bad reputation.
The writer claimed that Rory's father had kept a lot of mistresses and it was inevitable for Rory to follow in his father's footsteps.
Finally, the analysis pointed out that Devin and Becky were on the same level, status-wise.
And their parents were equally nice.
Even though Devin was once known as a playboy, there had been no rumors connecting him with any other girl for the last six months when he declared his intention to be with Becky.
Even his rumored new girlfriend turned out to be his cousin's wife.
The writer argued that if a playboy fell in love with any girl, he would remain in love with that girl forever.
And he concluded by asserting that Devin was better than Rory in every aspect.
Elmore was not the only one who was angered by this analysis.
In fact, the other members of the Casper family were equally angered.
Rory, in particular, was furious when he read it.
Aiken, on his part, found it interesting.
And he gloated to himself when he finished reading it.
"It's just as I said.Devin is indeed smarter than you, Rory."
