Chương 125: rough times

"Well," Jimmy began, his voice dropping as he leaned forward slightly, "the good days were over for him. From that day on, it was... rough. Honestly, it was hard for me to handle his rollercoaster of emotions. I kept telling him, 'Let's move on.' But he couldn't. He just wouldn't."

Jimmy paused, his expression growing heavier. "You know, Avey, I had always thought of you as someone important. Not because of anything you did, but because Lucian cared so much about you. His feelings for you made me see you in a good light. But after everything that happened after hearing so many things about how cold you were it... it saddened me. It even made me angry."

He sighed, rubbing the back of his neck as if trying to release the tension building there. "But Lucian... Lucian was Lucian. Even after your cold rejection, after you acted like he didn't matter, he never not once complained about you. Never said a single bad thing about you."
