Drop A Big Lie Novels & Stories

“This is ridiculous. Absolutely ridiculous.” What is Damian trying to pull? I stare at the revised contract on my tab. The clause was there in bold legal phrasing, subtle enough that most people wouldn’t notice the shift in wording, and I didn't. My jaw tightens. I grab my phone and dial his number. He picks up at the second ring. “Hey, wifey.” His voice sounded amused, like he’d been expecting my call. “Spare me that bullshit,” I snapped. “What the hell did you do to that clause?”

I nod, tilting my head back, blinking so the tears threatening to fall stay exactly where they are. "It's not a big deal," another lie, in fact the biggest lie I've told, when I know for certain that it's a big deal. Marriage is a big deal. And the fact that I heard about his like a criminal overhearing a sentence meant to ruin her made it worse. Wiping my face with the back of my hands, I set the cold wet socks on my lap, without any care about it leaving a wet spot, because I can’t find it in me to care about anything right now, aside from the hollow feeling in my chest.

Hot tears spilled freely out of my eyes as I lowered my gaze back to the paper. “Furthermore, I acknowledge that my family's assets, including their business, may be subject to restitution and penalties as a result of my actions..." my voice cracked, then I turned to Lorenzo. “this isn’t right." He laughed dryly and then crouched in front of me, “then tell me what's right. You said you would do anything, right?" "You're going too far! This is too much,” I cried. "Too much?” His expression hardened slightly. “You attached my name to yours without permission. You made me a public figure in your little fantasy. Do you understand what that costs me?”

“Will you tell me what happened now?” “Hun?!” Avery looked up in shock. She feigned a smile, lying, “I slipped on the floor and hit my head on the bed,” Layla fixed her eyes on Avery, and noticing the look, Avery knew Layla didn’t believe her. “Believe me, Layla, that’s what happened. I am not lying.” “Did I accuse you of lying?” Layla said calmly. She took Avery’s hand and caged it warmly in her hand. “Talk to me, Avery. Tell me the truth.”

he said while disconnecting the call. "Swara, I know after this you would hate me more but I have no other ways left to keep you with me. I recorded the video when I kissed you. I knew your gold digger step mother would definitely throw you out of your house after watching that video. And then you will have no other option left. You will come to me. I am the one who broke you and I will be the one to fix you," Sanskar said to himself. ♡♡♡

I fell on purpose. "She knew about your disloyalty. And when you slapped her, that shattered whatever was left between you." Zoey burst into hysterical laughter, but Julian's face turned grim. Suddenly, he grabbed her by the throat. "How dare you—do you have a death wish?" Zoey's face turned red, but she looked up at him with adoring eyes. “Because I love you, Julian… You lied to me. If I have to suffer, I’ll make sure you do too."

I leaned into him, my arms around his waist, as I shouted over the wind, "There are two types of people I can't stand in this world: rich people and liars!" Suddenly, Lance slammed on the brakes, and I crashed into his back.

“They may be more sympathetic towards that spin on it.” “It’s a lie,” Aislen started shaking her head. “Lies are dangerous because they can easily be proven as being lies, and once exposed, everything we say would then be open for debate. If we lie, we win the war for the Van Helsings. I say the Van Helsings let the cat out of the bag, it’s not our job to stuff it back in there, but rather to win the war against them.”

Ogadima uttered using her hands to raised Greater's chin, making her to look at her. “Now, I will like you to transfer all the money in your account to my account now, if you really wanted to leave here alive. ” Ogadima said while Greater widened her eyes in shock. “I have no money in my account, and besides I haven't started earning my own money yet. ” Greater replied and just then Ogadima gave her a resounding slāp on her cheeks. Tears instantly escaped the corner of Greater's eyes. “i promise I don't have any money on me.” She said again.

I’ll live as a lie, but if I’m brave enough and good enough, maybe I’ll prove that the biggest lies can hold the most important truths. I guess I’m about to find out.
