Louis walked in. The moment I saw him, my eyes lit up. Just as I was about to hurry over to him, Flora beat me to it. She threw herself into his arms, her eyes slightly red as she whined like a spoiled child. "Darling, Rachel is bullying me! She even hit me!" Louis saw the red handprint on her cheek. His gaze instantly turned ice-cold, and he glared at me, his eyes blazing with fury. "Rachel, are you crazy? Why did you hit her for no reason?"

* And underneath the highlight, he scribbles little things I can hardly read. My throat closes I turn to the next page. *She smiles like she’s innocent, and lies like she’s already guilty.* I flip through the pages and notice more and more outlined pages.

I don’t know what’s worse. That he sees me like that or the fact that every line he marked is true.

She turned back and walked towards Kyle, she looked at him before looking at me, with a glare "No one will ever love you, you will never get a man as good as Kyle. You are pathetic Tara, sorry to say but no one likes a girl who keeps secrets from her boyfriend." Damn, she always gets me, I hate the fact she always gets to my head. She turned back and was about to leave when I stop her, I walked towards her and stood right in front of her, staring into her eyes "For your kind information Maria, you are the pathetic one, not me, if I remember clearly, Kyle didn’t cheat on me, actually, we were playing each other." I said before I looked at Kyle. It hurts me to lie but I have no other choice, I

Because every truth unraveled another, and now she stood on the edge of a decision she could never come back from: Stay loyal to the country that used her. Or stand beside the man she was sent to destroy. The man she was now hopelessly falling for. Now she knows: everything about the case had been a lie. And maybe… just maybe… she had been the biggest lie of them all.

"W-We were worried you would be nervous on your first night home! We were just joking to help you relax." Gillian and Keith nodded repeatedly. "Yes! That's right! The joke was poorly timed.

Orson forced a strained smile. "What are you talking about? The heiress is obviously you." "The DNA test proved it. There's no doubt about that." "Hurry up and untie us. Stop messing around, alright?"

“They destroyed everything else. This is it. Whatever this is, Ursa’s going to need to be one hell of a storyteller.” Aisha looked down at the book, a suffocating feeling creeping up her lungs. But not for herself.

I just want to bury anything related to her. But, while I was finally cleaning my bedroom, which she had occupied for a few months, I discovered a book on my bookshelf that she had asked me to buy previously. As I examined the book, I was surprised; I had never found any of her belongings before when looking for proof; did I simply overlook this one?
