Because you loved me
"Damien called me that night and told me he had someone who had dug up information, something big that I could present in court against a big shot. He wouldn’t tell me over the phone. He just told me to meet him at our old diner, the one we used to go to as kids. But I never made it."
Krystie swallowed hard. "Why not?"
Lucian let out a bitter laugh. "Because I was called away. A client needed urgent legal help, a last-minute meeting that I thought couldn’t wait. By the time I finally made it to the diner, it was too late. The place was empty, except for him." His voice broke slightly. "Damien. He was lying there, a gunshot wound on his chest. He died before I could get help."
