Earlier: Will: The Groom
In this chapter WILL: The Groom, Jules and I walk back to the marquee together. I leave Olivia to make her own way. For one crazy moment there, realizing how near we were to the cliff edge, I was tempted. It wouldn’t have come as that much of a surprise. She tried to drown herself earlier, after all – or that’s certainly how it looked, before I saved her. And with this wind – it’s really blowing a gale now – there would have been so much confusion. But that’s not me. I’m not a killer.…-
