Chapter 243 I've Always Wanted To Beat You Up
When they finished eating, Devin got out of the car and went over to the other side to open the door for Becky.
Then he opened the trunk and brought down her suitcase.
But instead of handing it over to her, he held on to it.
"I'll help you take your suitcase to your floor."
Becky didn't want him to carry her luggage after her.
But when she reached out to grab the suitcase, he pulled it out of her reach.
Becky sighed.
"You want to bring it along and then have a cup of coffee?"
"I don't feel like having coffee tonight.But of course, if you insist on inviting me in, I'll gladly come in and have a cup of coffee."
"Okay then.Thanks," Becky said with a smile of her own.
"You owe me another meal."
"Okay."
Becky shrugged in agreement.
They soon arrived at her apartment.
Devin kept his word and did only what he had promised.
After shopping with Vivien the whole day, Becky had taken a flight straight back to Courtbush in the evening.
But she never planned to get into an accident.
Thankfully, she had gotten off lightly and spent only a short time at the hospital getting checked up and also answering some questions from the police.
Now, she was relieved to finally be back home.
It was past midnight now.
With all the stress she had gone through all day, Becky was dog-tired.
She took off her clothes and made straight for the shower to take a warm bath.
After that, she went straight to bed and fell asleep almost instantly.
Meanwhile, after he had seen her safely into her apartment, Devin stood outside her door for a while before turning around to leave.
But as he was heading down, he ran into Rory.
Rory did not seem to be in the best of moods.
His face looked gloomy as if he would swallow Devin whole.
But Devin was in the best of moods tonight.
Seeing his rival giving him a threatening look, he unbuttoned his cuffs and pulled up his sleeves.
"Hey, you wanna go at it again?"
Rory tried his best to suppress his anger and calm himself down, but his face still looked threatening.
"Did you deliberately provoke me last night?"
Devin first said something unpleasant to irritate Rory.
He then went ahead to make sure that Rory saw him attempt to kiss Becky.
It was a carefully planned move with the aim of provoking Rory and pushing him into fighting with him in front of Becky.
Devin was just as clever and cunning as ever.
"So what?"
Devin shrugged carelessly.
He didn't give a damn what Rory thought or felt.
After all, what could Rory do to him? It was Rory who had started the fight.
He was the one who lacked self-control and ended up attacking Devin.
Devin's words made Rory angrier.
But he was sober now.
"What do you think will happen if Becky finds out about this?"
"Do you think I don't have the balls to admit it to her?"
Devin asked with a mocking snicker.
He had never for once thought about hiding from Becky what had led up to the events of the previous night.
If he could do it, then he could as well tell her that he did it.
"You don't realize that it's people like you she hates the most!"
Rory spat at him, his face red with suppressed anger.
Devin suddenly laughed and shook his head in pity.
"Come on, Rory.By now, you should know which one of us Becky hates the most."
He paused for a moment and ran his eyes all over his rival, studying him carefully.
Then he asked without preamble, "What are you doing here by this time? You don't have any feelings for Becky, do you?"
The statement irritated Rory to no end.
He didn't know why, but he just couldn't bear to hear anyone accuse him of having no feelings for Becky.
"Devin, are you looking for another fight?" he growled threateningly.
"lam, Rory.I've wanted to beat you up for a long time now.Last night was not enough.Let's finish it tonight!" Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.
But even after Devin's declaration, Rory didn't make any move.
Instead, he stood rooted to the spot, not showing any active interest in fighting.
This surprised Devin, but still, he didn't hesitate to seize the opportunity and deliver a hard kick to Rory.
Then, he turned around.
When Devin saw Becky standing there, he was stunned.
He stood there, flustered and confused as she stared back at him.
But he quickly recovered himself and walked up to her.
"Becky, why did you come out? Are you going somewhere?"
