But you’re right–you don’t deserve her forgiveness.” He stared her down without a shred of warmth. “And since you’ve admitted what you did, it’s time to face the conséquences. Lily and her co–star were both injured tonight. The stage is trashed. The performance is canceled.” His tone didn’t waver. “Here’s what you’re going to do: every person who bought a ticket gets double their money back.
