They were already divorced, yet in front of Mathilda and the rest of the Ginger lunatics, James gently took her hand and asked if it hurt.

The way he looked at her–it almost seemed like he cared.

But Lily quickly shut that thought down.

He liked men. He would never have romantic feelings for her. The only reason he defended her in front of the Ginger family circus was because he had basic human decency. He just couldn’t stomach Mathilda’s manipulative bullshit.

“It hurts… it really hurts…”

Mathilda’s eyes welled up. “Please, don’t kill me.…..”

“I already told you–you’re so disgusting, who the hell would want to be your sister? This one’s for calling me that again!”
