Seth flipped him off. “Let’s talk this out. We won’t ask for more right now.”
She shook her head, stare pleading. “Please. I just need time to myself. To grieve and think. Whatever I decide next, I want to be really sure. You deserve that. I’d never want to make commitments I can’t keep.”
“We know.” Seth clearly didn’t love it, but he gave her a self-deprecating grin. “And we’ll try not to push. At least not too much.”
“I get it. I’ve been alone and penniless, wondering where life would take me,” Beck assured. “I lucked into Gloria. Let us help you now. No strings. Just know we’re here so that when you figure out what you want, even if that’s not with us, we’ll help you succeed.”
With a cry, she launched herself into their open arms.
As the PI wrapped his arms around her and dropped a kiss to her head, Beck palmed her waist and tried like fuck to imprint himself on Heavenly. Did she have any idea how much he loved her?
Gloria bounded into the family room then, Buddy beside her. “Good morning. I hope everyone slept well last night. I sure did.”
A grin spread across Buddy’s face as he slapped Gloria on the ass. “Me, too.”
“Eventually,” Seth drawled.
Beck sent Gloria’s fiancé a glare. “There’s a reason those little blue pills come with a warning to seek medical assistance after four hours.”
“Oh, take that stick out of your ass, Ken.” Gloria passed a mug to Buddy and clutched her own, seeming to float across the room like the happiest woman on earth.
Given what he’d heard last night, she probably was. He prayed Heavenly would give him and Seth the chance to make her every bit as happy again.
As the couple settled nearby, his soon-to-be ex-wife raised a brow. “Did you three get everything ironed out this morning?”
“I’m going to fly to Wisconsin.” Heavenly skirted the point of the question.
Beck provided the details and promised Heavenly he’d drive Raine’s car back to LA.
“That’s a start.” Gloria’s lips curled up. “Did you already book her flight?”
“No.”
Her smile turned sly. “Perfect. I have a steady client who owns a fleet of private jets. His pilots fly famous people all over the world. Let me give him a call.”
Gloria plucked her cell phone from the pocket of her robe and punched the screen before turning to Heavenly. “What’s the closest regional airport in Wisconsin?”
She named a town he’d never heard of.
“And when did you want to return to LA?”
Heavenly avoided wincing as much as she tried not to look their way. “Can I let you know?”
“No problem.” Gloria meandered into the kitchen to sweet-talk her client. Buddy followed, looking for a refill.
A few minutes later, Gloria breezed into the room again. “All booked. You’ll leave at three o’clock. There will be a rental waiting when you land.”
“All that with one phone call?” Heavenly looked stunned. “I can’t begin to thank you…”
Gloria waved her away. “Doing business with powerful people has its benefits.”
Beck glanced at the clock. “We’ve got five hours to show you some Vegas glitz and glitter. You up for breakfast and some sightseeing?”
He and Seth didn’t have long to show her all she’d miss out on if she didn’t choose them, but he refused to waste a single second of this opportunity to give her some adventure and prove they could make her happy.
Heavenly’s smile lit up her eyes, and Beck’s world suddenly seemed brighter. “I’d love to.”
Seth grinned. “Run upstairs and get dressed. Beck and I will do the same.”
