The lab blew, and my girlfriend—Beatrice Whitmore—didn't even glance my way. She bolted straight for Joseph, wrapping herself around him. When the dust settled, she climbed into the ambulance with him. I was still on the ground, bleeding out, and she didn't spare me a look. Eighteen years raising him, and apparently, that was all the space her heart had left. My coworkers dragged me to the hospital. ICU, barely breathing. When I finally clawed my way out, throat raw, I called my advisor. "Prof. Beaumont, I'm in. I'll go. Even if it means disappearing for five years, I don't care." That was supposed to be my wedding month. Not anymore.

My Fiancée and Her Plus One Chapter 8
"Leona, I wasn't actually gonna meet her, I—"I didn't want her taking it the wrong way.But before I could even explain, she gave me this worried look. "You soft-hearted idiot. Always holding everything in, always giving your best to the wrong people. That phony with her fake morals—she must've dragged you through hell.""It's all behind me."Back then, Beatrice could talk a good game. I was naive enough to buy it, and that's how I wasted years.Leona pulled me into a hug, her hand warm on my back, full of quiet sympathy.***The next afternoon, we went to see my family.Leona—the tough, no-nonsense officer—suddenly turned careful and sweet, polite the whole time. To anyone watching, she looked like a totally different person.My family adored her right away, pulling her into every conversation. I stuck close, low-key stunned at how chatty she could be."Why'd you bring gifts? We're family! Don't waste your money. This is from your dad and me—take it already!" Mom grinned ea

Beatrice whipped her head toward the newcomer, disbelief written all over her face.I didn't even look at her. My eyes were locked on Leona, and I couldn't help but grin. "Didn't you say you wouldn't be back for two more days?""That's what the paperwork said. But I kept pushing—told the clerks I finally found the guy I want to marry. If the process drags and ruins my chance at a family, I'll camp on their doorstep and cry every day."Her voice softened as she looked at me.Hard to picture her—queen of ice—throwing tantrums like that. But knowing Leona? She'd do it without blinking.Back at the base, people never let me live it down. They said before I showed up, she never gave anyone the time of day unless it was business.Then out of nowhere, the stone-cold queen went full-on lovestruck.Anyone who tried to come between us? She'd burn the place down.Leona hooked her arms around my neck and kissed me right there in front of everyone. "Babe, it's been twenty-six hours. I misse

I called 911.Two cops showed up fast and hauled her off.Not long after, she texted:[I know you still love me. You're just avoiding me because I hurt you too much five years ago. That's okay. I'll prove how sincere I am!]I shot back:[Wrong. I already have a girlfriend. We're serious. Met each other's families. Engagement's next. Don't contact me again.]I meant it.During those five years locked in classified work, I'd fallen for Leona—the officer running base security. We'd been together three years now.But Beatrice refused to believe it.[You're only saying that because you're mad. We had ten years, Howard. We were each other's first love. There's no way you could love someone else. I didn't value you before, but I'll prove I've changed!]Didn't matter if she changed or not. I was done.Blocked her number, washed up, and went to bed.***Next morning, I cracked the door for my run—boom, Beatrice was right there."I knew you'd be up early. Got up at four to make rav

Beatrice finally got it—once I left today, I was gone for good."Howard..." she called, voice shaking with panic.But panic for what?I was human too. I could hurt. I could break.She should've seen this coming the moment she kept choosing Joseph over me.I shut my eyes. Didn't even want to see her anymore.***The research kept me cut off from everything.By the time I saw Beatrice again, five years had blown by.My family and friends threw a welcome-back party. The room buzzed."Howard, you missed the chaos. Your wedding five years ago? Total meltdown.""When those pics and videos hit the screen, the Whitmores' name tanked. Those two deserved it.""And Beatrice? Girl tried hijacking a helicopter just to stop you. Got locked up for half a month after that stunt.""She made zero sense. She was with you but acting sketchy with Joseph. After the wedding blew up, the Whitmores tried marrying her off to him. He was happy, but she refused. Kept crying about how you were the onl

"Howard, where are you going?"Beatrice burst out in her wedding dress, panicked, screaming my name.The rotors thundered overhead as I looked down.She sprinted across the lawn, tripped, hit the ground hard, dress a wreck.Bridesmaids rushed in, but she shoved them away, stumbling back to her feet, still chasing the helicopter like her life depended on it.I'd never seen her break like that for me.No—that wasn't true. Back in our first five years, she really did care.When I drank myself into a bleeding ulcer trying to help her land a client, she held me tight and cried.When her company was about to go public, I pulled nonstop all-nighters on her lab work until I collapsed.She rushed me to the hospital, panic in her eyes. When I came to, she crumpled to the floor, clutching me and sobbing.So when did she start slipping away?Maybe it was Joseph's eighteenth birthday—when he got drunk and kissed her.She stayed with him that whole night. From then on, they only grew tig

Before I could answer, Joseph slung an arm around Beatrice."Aunt Beatrice, I just remembered—there's a basketball game this afternoon I HAVE to see."She tapped his nose, smiling. "Why didn't you say that earlier?""Just remembered. Not like it's my fault. If you're too busy, I'll go alone. Worst case, a bunch of pretty girls hit on me. Who knows, maybe I meet my soulmate."He stood to leave.Beatrice panicked, grabbing his hand. "I didn't say I wouldn't go!"Then she turned to me, torn. "Howard, you see..."I let out a cold laugh. "Takes two people to get a marriage license. Didn't know there was a law saying you had to be Joseph's date for a basketball game."Her face darkened. "Jojo's just being playful. He's waited forever for this game. You want him living with regret just because we didn't grab a piece of paper today?""If you never planned on listening, why even ask?""Howard—""Enough. I'm not stopping you. We've already canceled three times. What's one more? Joseph
