"Me? I don't think that's a great idea." Karen hesitated. "I mean, none of them even know who I am. You guys go have fun without me." "You're my fiancée. They're bound to meet you sooner or later. Might as well make today the day," Jeffrey insisted. Deep down, he feared any hiccups before the engagement party. Hence, he felt it was always safer to have Karen by his side to keep the doubts at bay.

What Jeffrey did not realize, however, was that this decision would be his biggest mistake.

But it was too late to turn around and leave without raising my suspicions.

"Is this the future Mrs. Turner? Wow, she's a stunner!" Jeffrey's buddies caught sight of Karen and started ribbing them with grins.

This was a rite of passage in their group; everyone had been through it with a new girl on their arm.

Even though Karen was not a fan of such comments, she let it slide. Everyone had been drinking, and since she was the one who had pushed Jeffrey to come, she had to ensure he kept his dignity.

Decisive man!" "Congratulations!" Amid the chorus of cheers, Karen noticed the girl across the table had turned pale.

As she closed her eyes to splash water on her face, she heard the click of high heels entering the restroom.

Another visitor-nothing unusual for the ladies' room.

Finishing up, she looked in the mirror to find the woman from the table standing right behind her.

It was the woman who had looked unwell.

Caught off guard, Karen offered her a friendly smile. "Hey, how are you doing?" "Not well," she replied sharply. "So, you're marrying Jeffrey?" Karen's inner alarm bells rang loud and clear, sensing trouble. "Yes, what about it?" She scoffed. "Funny, isn't it? Jeffrey toldhe'd never get married when I was with him and that I shouldn't wait for him. And now, just two years later, he's announcing an engagement." Oh, great. Another ex of Jeffrey's.

Karen took a deep breath, maintaining her composure. "People change, it's normal. Like her, she never planned on marrying Jeffrey either.

"Normal?" The woman crossed her arms and laughed bitterly. "Do you think I'm just another conquests of Jeffrey's "Aren't you?" "I was with him for nearly three years. Sure, he had his flings, but his buddies all knewas his girlfriend." Karen was stunned. X
