#WIPSnips from A SOULMATE OF HER OWN, this is at the end of chapter one and makes me giggle (at the end). Lily is talking with her friend, Nina, after her husband had an unfortunate accident.

"Don't you dare, for one millisecond, feel guilty about this. He was having heart issues for weeks, and when I finally got him an appointment at the cardiologist, he skipped it. Hell, last night's argument was about him skipping the appointment, for god's sake," she rushed, and a weight lifted from my shoulders. "I told him it would kill him, but he didn't listen to me, or any of the kids. We all tried to warn him, but the bastard always thought he knew best. If you ask any of the kids, they'll tell you the same thing. Anyway, I'll let you go, I appreciate the call," she paused and scoffed before sighing. "There's the hospital now. Have a good evening, Lily. We'll talk later."

Then she hung up. I shook my head but knew how true it was. Brad Bradley was instantly hated by most everyone he met. As I walked back to Lucifer and Hannah, I wondered again how the nearly fifty years younger Nina, who I'd met during her modelling career, ended up dating then marrying the multi-millionaire.

It read like a classic tale: older, wealthy man dates younger woman after his first wife dies under mysterious circumstances. He had money.
She was a young model looking for fame and fortune. It should have been a closed case. Something about it had always tasted wrong to me, but I don't meddle in mortal affairs. I just planned their weddings.
