Forgetting You in the Light Chapter 9
He lunged at me and clamped both hands around my ankles."Betsy! I finally found you!"Screams erupted from the crowd. Security guards immediately drew their batons and rushed forward.I looked down at the man sprawled at my feet.It was a filthy vagrant, reeking of body odor and grime. His hair was matted into hard, tangled clumps, and his face was covered in bruises and patches of frostbitten skin.The guards struck him across the back with their batons."Get away from Dr. Hull!"Elton cried out in pain, but he refused to let go of me. Instead, he pulled a filthy, crumpled blueprint from inside his coat."Betsy, look! I've drawn up the plans for the observatory I'm building for you. Everything's ready. Construction can start right away! And I broke Lula's other leg. No one will ever come between us again!"He lifted his grime-streaked face toward me. Tears mingled with the dirt on his cheeks, leaving two clean streaks behind."Please forgive me, okay? I sacrificed my entire

"Your pocket change is worthless compared to real science. Take your stupid icebreaker and get out of my sight."I hung up before Elton could respond, then added his number to my block list.Harry stood beside me, watching the lights on the icebreaker gradually dim."He won't let this go easily," he said.I took a sip of my coffee. "Then let's see just how far he'll go."Elton's irrational obsession was exactly what I'd been counting on....Six months later, the Arctic entered the midnight sun period, bathing the frozen landscape in continuous daylight.Our nebula research project achieved a groundbreaking breakthrough, and major scientific journals around the world competed to feature our findings on their front pages.Meanwhile, Elton had become the laughingstock of Verolvale's business community.I came across the latest news about the Werner Group online. In a desperate attempt to force me home, Elton had halted the company's most profitable real estate development proje

The sharp crack of the slap echoed through the quiet room."I was wrong," Elton said bitterly. "The tattoo was fake. Lula used a temporary sticker and bribed the wedding planner to deceive me. I've already driven her out of Verolvale. She'll never show her face around us again."He clutched my snow boots with both hands. "Betsy, please. Come back with me and marry me, okay?"I looked down at his tear-streaked face and felt nothing but disgust. "You only came looking for me because your ego can't stand being dumped."I kicked his hands away and continued, "The moment you sided with Lula and humiliated me at our engagement party, we were over."Elton stared at me in disbelief. "You're throwing away years of our relationship over something so trivial?"He scrambled to his feet, his desperate pleading instantly giving way to anger. "Do you really have to be so heartless?"I pointed toward the heavy front door. "Get out!"He gritted his teeth and gestured at the sophisticated equipm

Elton snatched the file from his assistant, crumpling the papers in his tight grip.The cover page clearly showed a bank transfer between Lula and the wedding planner.Keeping his head down, Raymon quickly delivered the rest of his report."Ms. Buckley paid the wedding planner $300,000 to keep quiet about Ms. Hull canceling the wedding. And regarding the tattoo photo displayed on the big screen at the engagement party..."He hesitated briefly before continuing, "We checked Ms. Buckley's recent online purchase history. The tattoo was just a temporary waterproof sticker she bought online. She never had a real tattoo in the first place."The color drained from Elton's face. He slammed the file against Raymon's chest."Bring Lula here. Now!"Half an hour later, two burly security guards dragged Lula into the office. She glanced around in confusion, still trying to play innocent."Elton, why did you call me here?"Elton strode toward her, grabbed her by the hair, and yanked her hea

Elton stared at the shattered phone on the floor, his voice hoarse."Impossible."He shoved past the groomsmen and strode toward the elevator. Lula hurried after him in her high heels and grabbed his sleeve."Calm down. Betsy might just be throwing a tantrum. Maybe she's hiding at home and refusing to answer your calls."Elton shook off her hand."Get out of my way!"She stumbled sideways and crashed into the hallway wall.He didn't even look back.Instead, he turned to his assistant, who was struggling to keep up."Check every flight and train. Get all the security footage! Find her. Now!"...A month later, the Arctic research station had entered the polar night, plunging the region into almost perpetual darkness.I sat at the observation station, studying the fluctuating data on the screen, when my team lead pushed open the door and handed me a folder."The sensor in Sector B is malfunctioning. We'll have to collect today's data manually."I grabbed the recorder and go

Elton's face darkened."What are you throwing a fit over now? Do you have any idea how many strings I had to pull to get you this job?" he demanded through clenched teeth."And now you're just going to quit? You were only supposed to talk for a few minutes. It's practically second nature to you by now. Is this what your so-called love for astronomy amounts to?"I remained unfazed. "I do love astronomy, but my passion isn't there to entertain people or help you impress anyone."Elton's expression turned furious. "Lula is just a friend, and I'm offering you the title of Mrs. Werner. What more do you want from me?"I shook my head. "Save that title for someone else. I'm done."I turned away from his furious face and walked straight out of the planetarium.He'd turned even my last sanctuary into his personal playground. There was no reason for me to stay anymore.Once outside, I took out my phone and called the head of the Arctic research station."Hello, this is Betsy Hull. I've
