Novel & Cerita A Lie For A Lie

" Reynold fell silent instantly, sliding down the wall until he sat helplessly on the floor. Brian crouched beside him and patted his shoulder. He said, "I've known you both for years, and I've witnessed everything Adrianna has done for you. Five years ago, when your company's funding dried up and debt collectors came after you, she stepped in front of them. Without her, they would have torn you apart. He continued, "Later, she went around securing sponsorships, drinking and entertaining business executives until she had ulcers—and she never told you about it. "But what about you? Look at what you've done—which of your actions has shown any appreciation for her sacrifices? Think about this t

Chapter 252 Ellie I don't like lying. That doesn't mean that I've never lied before no have I ever forced to eat myself out of a sticky situation ,I have lied before and I've sugar coated the truth before but; a lie is a lie is a lie. There are people that you can lie to and there are people that you should tell the full extent of the truth to . There is also a difference between being deceitful and omitting information that someone needs to know .

I replied with a shrug. "Let's just say that I'm curious because I'm bored and also because anybody could be interested in hearing how two lovers met and since I don't have anything else that I'm doing with my time, I just want to listen to a story about how you met him. So, will you tell me or are you going to ask me to mind my business?" I asked. I desperately wanted her to tell me the truth but I'm not expecting her to be completely honest with me because it would make it obvious that their story wasn't exactly normal but I still wanted to hear her say something because I believe that in every lie, there's always an iota of truth.

“You said… you said it was all for the money. That you never cared about me.” “I lied,” Kayla said, tears streaming down her face. “I lied because I thought I had to. I thought the DNA results were real. I thought we were related—half-siblings. I thought our love was a sin, that it was wrong. I couldn’t tell you that, Liam. I couldn’t put that weight on you. I knew it would destroy you. So I made up that lie. I pushed you away because I thought it was the only way to protect you. But I never stopped loving you. I never stopped loving you for a single second.”

I asked quietly. "Marco, I didn’t mean to lie. I just... I didn’t know how to tell you." "Who is he to you?" "He’s..." She swallowed. "He’s my best friend. Lucan’s my best friend. I just found out he was the leader of a rival mafia faction. He came to tell me. That was all." "That was all?" She nodded. "Yes." "So you snuck out to meet a rival don early in the morning and didn’t tell me, and lied about it afterward. But it was nothing?"

"Dr. Lane, please repeat what you told me." Ruby's stomach dropped as the face on the screen came into view. It was the very doctor who had helped forge her diagnosis. She stared at Caleb in disbelief, only to hear Anthony Lane's trembling voice coming from the video. "Yes… Ruby was never poisoned. She paid me to fake the medical report... It was all her idea. I'm sorry, Alpha…" Ruby went completely pale. She looked at Caleb, but he was staring at her with nothing but hatred. "Do you have nothing else to say?" he asked.

When I finally picked up, the first thing she said was, “Honey, I’m feeling really unwell today. Can you wire me two thousand dollars? I need to get more asthma medication.” Hearing her voice, a scoff surfaced in my heart. She had no idea I had uncovered her lies. She still thought I was the same gullible fool she could push around. If I sent her the money now, she would definitely use it to refill Derek’s medication. With that thought, I replied coldly, “I’m in the hospital. I don’t have money to send you.”

Laurel suddenly said in a gloomy tone, "And then you'll be the heiress of a rich family, and the three of us will still be poor." I promised them immediately, "Don't worry. I'll make it worth your while. Enough talking. First, we make them tell us where my real parents are." The three of them tied up the fake parents again. To keep them from escaping this time, they tied them extra tight. Then, they splashed water on them to wake them up. "Talk! Where did you hide my parents?" I demanded. At first, the three of them stayed stubbornly silent. I didn't waste words. If they didn't talk, I shocked them. In the end, they couldn't take it anymore and finally told the truth.

“It’s not true. I’ve only ever loved your dad. Marcus is trying to come between us. He was obsessed with breaking us up, you know that.” “I know nothing, not about you. Marcus isn’t the one with a history of lying to me. I want to know the truth, all of it.” Her continued lies seemed to be telling me more than her version of the truth ever could. The pieces were slowly falling into place. She wasn’t lying because she wanted to. She was lying because she had to. The original lie was so huge that she had to continue lying to cover for the first lie. I didn’t even want to ask the question, but I had to. I wondered if Marcus had even considered it or if he would be shocked when I voiced my conce
