But Remus’s life is more complicated than Sirius knows.

Excerpt:

Remus frowned. “What should I have done? Not taken the money? Told him to go fuck himself? Well, I guess I did do that ….”

“You’ve been happier these last few weeks than I think I’ve ever seen you,” Lily implored. “Isn’t there any way you could still make things work with Sirius?”

“You mean, go back on the promise I made?” Remus shook his head. “I took the money. I agreed to the terms. I’m not a liar or a thief. At least, not when I don’t have to be.”

Lily scowled at him. “I know you’ve got your pride, but really, Remus. Who does this help? Just some rich, abusive asshole who uses his money to push people around. For that, you have to get your heart broken, and break Sirius’s, too? How is that right? Why doesn’t your happiness matter?”
