Rachel Larson was adamant about marrying me, and she spent ten years stealing my heart. On the night before our wedding, I overheard her conversation with her friend. "You're marrying Leonardo? What about your side piece?" A moment of silence later, Rachel answered, "That guy? He's just a cheap replacement. Leonardo's the real deal. Don't compare my side piece to him. If he stays put and keeps his mouth shut, I might let him stay around. Leonardo's a broad-minded man. He won't mind." The side piece did not stay put. In fact, he caused a scene at the wedding the next day. He shoved me off the stage, but the woman who was supposed to marry me darted over to his side instead. Why? He was holding a piece of broken glass against his throat. Gutturally, he roared, "Choose! Me or him?" Panicked, Rachel kicked me away despite my injuries, and she roared, "Get out of the way! I need to take him to the hospital! If anything happens to him, I'll kill you!" She didn't need to wait that long. My heart died right there and then. … That night, I bought a flight ticket that would take me abroad and left her.

I Was Left Behind at the Altar Chapter 8 Hysterical
"You hooked up with someone else right after I left? Did you cheat on me? There's no way you could've found another girlfriend this fast!"I answered slowly, "None of your business. I would never date you, not even if you're the last woman in the world." I hung up and left Rachel to her hysteria.That post must have hurt Rachel. She did not come back into my life for a long, long time. I put all my efforts into my research. Eventually, I published my article in a top academic journal and got the award for my efforts.The professor naturally knew about the happy news, and he clapped my shoulder. "I knew you could do it. You were born for academia. I was sad after you left for your marriage, but I couldn't possibly stop you from pursuing love. Good thing you're back with us now."I said nothing and nodded.Then, graduation season came. I was chosen to give a speech, and when I was done, the applause was almost thunderous enough to shake the roof. But then the spotlights converged on
I Was Left Behind at the Altar Chapter 7 Relentless
Whatever she had to say got stuck on the tip of her tongue, and she stared at me like I'd grown fifty feet all at once. She couldn't understand why I was doing this to her.Well, this was how she treated me. I thought she would get my refusal and back off, but she stayed back and even closer to me than she did back when we were still in a situationship. I sighed. "Honestly, you only go after the people you can't get, and once you do, you toss them away like they're trash.""What?" Rachel froze. She then processed what I said, and her face fell. "How could you? I cherish you all the time, Leonardo. I treat you like a king. I bought you everything you wanted. I took you everywhere you wanted to go. All I did was spend some time with Jonathan. Must you go this far? You're overreacting."I did not answer her question. Instead, I shrugged and smirked at her. "Well, I can't change the way you think. If you really want to patch things up, you can."Rachel's eyes lit up, and she looked a

The sticky note slid off Rachel's hand. She grabbed her phone and called the bodyguard who had interrupted her earlier in the day. The moment he picked up, she cut to the chase. "Are you sure that letter's from Leonardo? Where is he now?""Yes, Ms. Larson. I've checked the surveillance footage. He went away after leaving the letter behind. He writes about breaking up with you and going abroad. I did ask you to get him back. Still, since Mr. Ginger's the only one you care about, I guess we can let this sl—"Rachel roared, "Shut up! You don't know the first thing about this! I want you to figure out his flight! I'm going to him right now!"She hastily draped a jacket over her and was about to leave when Jonathan sobered up a little. He stumbled and wobbled, but he caught up to her. He pulled her into his embrace and muttered, "How about we have the time of our lives tonight, Rachel?"Rachel shoved him off and icily replied, "Leonardo's missing. I don't have time for you, so piss off!

Rachel snapped out of it and nodded. "And I thought he wasn't the kind of man who'd do this. Guess I was wrong. I can't believe he'd stoop so low. We'll carry on with the ceremony."Jonathan smiled and slid the ring down Rachel's finger. Then, he kissed her forehead. "Will you spend the rest of your life with me, Rachel?"She wanted to tell him that this whole ceremony was nothing more than that—a ceremony. It had nothing to do with promises of eternal love. That was for Leonardo, but what came out was, "Yes."The crowd went wild. The applause was thunderous, but Rachel felt empty inside. She scanned the scene, trying to search for that man. She wanted to be sure, to know he was just kidding, that he hadn't left. But she found no one.…When she got off the stage, she quickly asked her acquaintance, "Where's Leonardo? Have you seen Leonard?"Everyone shook their heads. "No," they replied.Fury filled Rachel's heart, and she stomped her foot. "Unbelievable! He's such a nerd! He
