When His Lie Became My Truth Chapter 9
Pierce cremated my body and returned home cradling the urn — yet surprisingly, he didn’t go looking for Jessica first.Yet she saved him the time by walking right into his hands.Pierce’s gaze darkened as he looked at Jessica.She wore a delicate Chanel-inspired outfit, her makeup perfectly done, making her look even more dazzling and seductive.The chilling look in his eyes startled her for a moment, but she dismissed it before she ran over to wrap her arms around him affectionately.“Pierce, I’ve decided I won’t force you to marry me. I won’t come between you and Lorien again. I’ll never marry.“I’ll wait for you. I’ll wait until the day you change your mind and decide to marry me. I’ll do whatever you ask. You just have to say it.”“Anything?” Pierce’s gaze swept over her, as if he were about to devour her whole.But Jessica had not caught the look and still smiled sweetly at him. “Of course! For you, I’d gladly do it.”“Good. Then wait patiently for me.” Pierce patted he
When His Lie Became My Truth Chapter 8
I had told Pierce the day I was first diagnosed with cancer.But he brought Jessica straight into our home anyway, declaring he wanted to marry her, that he needed to make it up to her.He was the one who made me look like a madwoman who only spoke about dying, when I learned he had cheated, not Jessica.Yet he used his made-up ability, this nonsense about seeing people’s lifespans, to claim that I was lying, that I was just putting on airs, bullying poor Jessica, the one who was supposedly dying.But it was he who chose not to believe.When Pierce arrived at the hospital and couldn’t find me, he rushed around, questioning every doctor he could, desperate for any clue to my whereabouts.By pure chance, he bumped into Dr. Watson.Pierce’s eyes lit up with hope. “Lorien — which room is she in? I’m here to see her.”Dr. Watson paused, his face tightening with a look of regret. “And you’re just now showing up?” His voice brimmed with quiet disdain.“W-what do you mean?” Pierce’s

Pierce suddenly burst into anger.“Is this how you all neglected her? Did you forget she’s the lady of this house?”The maids all lowered their heads, falling into a nervous hush, none daring to respond. Only Margery watched Pierce.“Sir, you told us to make Mrs. Ronan think about what she had done, so you ordered all her belongings removed and said she should live under the most basic conditions,” she stammered.“We were just following your instructions.”Pierce stiffened. His whole body trembled as he pointed at the bloodstains on the wall.“Then what about the blood on the wall?”Margery sighed heavily.“Sir, I told you before, Mrs. Ronan kept banging her head against the wall. You told us not to intervene.”Pierce’s hand trembled violently as he gripped the doorframe. He shook his head repeatedly, panic filling his eyes.And I, standing apart from the crowd, watched his nervous, guilty act with a gaze already grown cold.The air turned deathly still. For a long t
When His Lie Became My Truth Chapter 6
When I first discovered Pierce had lied to me, I believed it was because he had fallen for Jessica.At the time, I lamented that this gentle, attentive man who had once loved me had merely been pretending all along.He had performed every act of affection, but at his core, he was just like any despicable man; rotten to the bone.Yet now, I heard something that shook me to the core.Could it be that his moral compass was still intact? Could it be that he still felt shame?Was it just that he knew I would never leave him, so he recklessly dared to cheat right before my eyes?But this willful betrayal, knowing full well it was wrong, sickened me even more than simple cruelty.Pierce believed he had made himself perfectly clear, but Jessica stubbornly clung to him.“So you’re really just going to stand by and watch me marry someone else? We clearly love each other, so why can’t we be together?“You and Lorien only got married on a whim through an arranged meeting. There’s no real

Yet all of that had been nothing but a dying dream, born of my last obsession.Truly, Pierce never realized I had died.As my life faded, my soul drifted out of my body.I floated aimlessly for a long while, not knowing where to go, not knowing what awaited me.Just as I wandered, lost and purposeless, the scene suddenly shifted.I saw the hospital room.Pierce sat faithfully by Jessica’s bedside, watching as she slowly awoke. Tears glimmered in his eyes as he endlessly murmured gratitude to the heavens.His eyes were red, his figure disheveled, and he clung to her as if he had snatched her from the jaws of death.“Thank God you’re safe. I don’t think I could bear losing you again, Jessica,” he whispered.Jessica saw his tearful eyes, and gently wrapped her arms around him as she murmured, “I’m fine, Pierce. I’m still here. You will never lose me. We’ll always be together, forever.”In the room, the television kept broadcasting their story.Pierce had summoned top speciali

As Jessica spoke, she pulled a knife from her side and stabbed it into her shoulder. Blood gushed out instantly.She threw the knife at my feet, then lunged forward to snatch Holly from my arms. We grappled, shoving each other until we stumbled toward the window.Jessica shrieked sharply, “Pass Holly to me, Lorien! Your life is yours to end, but don’t take Holly with you!”“What madness is this?” I fought back desperately, voice shaking.The struggle grew louder and more chaotic. Holly was terrified and burst into wailing cries.Seeing that Jessica was about to rip Holly from my arms, I readied myself to kick her away.But suddenly, out of nowhere, Pierce appeared and slammed me to the ground with a brutal kick of his own. He snatched Holly from me in one rough motion.“How dare you lay a finger on Jessica!”My head slammed against the corner of the wall. A sharp pain exploded in my skull. It must have been the tumor. The doctors had warned me that once it ruptured,
