My Boyfriend Cheated With His Student, I Left Chapter 8
Marcus and Claire were taken in by federal authorities.Once the footage and the audio went public, the narrative flipped instantly.The internet turned on them. Marcus had no business being anyone's advisor. Claire was shameless.The university's ethics board opened an investigation. The patents were returned to my name, and the paper was retracted and re-attributed.The university released a statement and terminated both of them."Evelyn. The police called. Marcus is refusing to cooperate. He wants to see you." Sebastian draped his jacket over my shoulders. "You don't have to.""I'll go."The visitation room had a glass partition. Marcus looked at me through it.He was in cuffs. His eyes were red, and his face was rough with two days of stubble. He looked like he had been hit by a truck.I picked up the handset. "You wanted to see me.""Evelyn, I love you." His voice caught."Your kind of love is choosing other people over me, and wrecking me for someone else. That kind of love is re

I walked in at exactly two p.m.Marcus and Claire went still the second they saw me."You're supposed to…"Marcus cut her off. "Claire. You're up. Do well."Claire pulled herself together, walked up to the screen, and started reading off the slides.No life in it.I watched her with my chin in my hand.Three slides in, I had figured her out.She was presenting a research direction I had dropped a long time ago. I had never even kept the drafts.I laughed. I couldn't help it.Claire stopped mid-sentence and stared at me, her face red."Dr. Sinclair, what is your problem? Are you mocking me?"I was enjoying this. "By all means. Continue your presentation."I let the "your" land.Under my eyes, Claire got smaller and smaller. She started tripping over her own slides.In Q&A, she fell apart. Her answers had nothing to do with the questions. She kept glancing at Marcus for help, and her eyes went red.There was a break, and they put me in a private room.Claire came in. Her eyes were wet an

I was about to get in when Marcus caught up and grabbed my arm."Evelyn."A hand slid around my waist and pulled me in. Cool, clean cologne settled over me like a coat."Hands off, Mr. Hale."I looked up.Sebastian stood at my side, his posture protective. Charcoal suit, perfectly cut. Dark hair combed back, not a piece out of place. The kind of sharp, expensive look that made men like Marcus shrink."You two are over. Professor Hale, you're what they call a respected academic. You should think about how things look in public." He took Marcus's arm and held it. His eyes were ice. "It would be a shame to end up trending."He let go of him.Marcus shook out his arm and his face went tight. "Evelyn. What is he to you?"He looked at Sebastian like he wanted to spit. This was exactly the kind of man Marcus hated.Polite on top, condescending all the way down.The kind who would never see someone self-made like him as an equal.Marcus lost it."Mr. Sterling. I don't care how much money or po

I exhaled.Sebastian was here."Take their cameras and their phones," I said, looking around the room. "Delete every photo and every video. There was no press conference today. If a single word of this gets out, you'd better know what's coming.""Sebastian. Get me out of here."Marcus moved into our path, his face dark. "Evelyn. Who is he?"I smiled. "Someone you hate, and someone you'll never be."Marcus had grown up poor. It left him with a chip on his shoulder he could never quite put down.He had carved out a name for himself, sure.But around men like Sebastian, his shoulders always pulled in. He would say it was about "breeding," that they only had family money while he had real talent. That was how he made it bearable.I used to feel bad for him, and I used to make room for it.But now? Now he was nothing.And he was going to pay for it.Marcus watched us walk out. Something in his chest tightened, and he turned to Claire. "I'll get you into a doctoral program overseas. Find a n

Lucky for me, the blast wasn't strong.Just surface burns. A few days in the hospital and I would be fine.The launch event for the anti-cancer drug I had led was in three days. Lisa told me to rest."No, I'm going," I said. There was nothing soft in my voice. "Every drug I've made is one of my kids. I'm going to be there when this one is born."Three days later, the venue was packed with press.Marcus and Claire were seated dead center.I had never liked the spotlight, so I took a seat further back.Marcus sat in the middle. Claire sat next to him, smiling into every camera.I thought about the first year he had been at the university, the two of us in the dining hall. Every time, he had scooped the better portion onto my tray and then pretended to check his phone, as if he hadn't.The MC started the program.The drug had been in the final stage of development when Marcus had begged to join. He said he wanted to contribute to science. He said he didn't even need his name on the paper.

I couldn't go back to the apartment. The thought of it made my skin crawl.I went back to the lab. I needed something to do with my hands.I dripped the plant extract into a petri dish and turned to log the data.There was a bang behind me.A wall of heat hit me, and I was on the floor.My vision went black.My back was burning.Pure survival instinct started dragging me toward the door.Everything blurred. I heard the lab door beep open.Running footsteps."Dr. Sinclair.""Dr. Sinclair."Lisa, one of my students, had come to pick up a report. She found me face-down on the floor and called 911.On the way to the hospital, my head was spinning. The doctor told me not to fall asleep. They said a student couldn't authorize surgery and they needed my emergency contact, so they asked for my name, my phone passcode, and a number.I gave them Marcus's name without thinking.The call connected."Hi, is this the emergency contact for Evelyn Sinclair? Ms. Sinclair was burned in a lab explosion.
