"Lily, you lied. You said you'd always love me, but you still haven't forgotten Gavin. "Gavin, why won't you just leave Lily alone?" Media cameras were already filming us. I nearly laughed. Was he planning to use his death to frame me? Just as Morgan was about to jump, I shouted, "Morgan, I'm already married to your cousin. We've set a date for the wedding. It's next week."
