Locked Up Liars Novels & Stories

That was when I… "What the? That's when Lia went away for the surgery. Didn't she inform Rupert Kilmer that she'd be gone for vacation with you guys?" Limwel turned towards Lacey, who was now fuming in anger with her arms crossed. "Yeah. I bet they used that as an excuse that Lia lied to meet up with her "lover". Their plan is very obvious. Those sharks are just playing along with it. Tsk." She was right. The timeline fits. They already framed me of infidelity with a janitor. It isn't surprising anymore that they'll add that to the pile.

She pulled harder, but the door refused to open. “What’s wrong?” Liam asked, noticing her struggle. “It’s locked,” Lily said, panic creeping into her voice. “I can’t open it.” Lucas and Liam exchanged a glance before joining her at the door. Lucas tried the handle first, then Liam, but neither of them could get it to move. “It’s stuck,” Lucas said grimly. “No,” Lily whispered, her heart racing. “It’s locked.They locked us in.” All three of them stared at the door, the reality sinking in. For the first time that night, Lily’s anger gave way to fear.

"I ran some scams. Credit card fraud mostly. Small stuff. Enough to survive. I'm not proud of it." "Were you ever going to tell me?" "I wanted to. But every time I tried, I was afraid you'd leave. That you'd see me for what I really am." "And what's that?" "A liar. A thief. Someone who ruins everything she touches." Nickey stood. Paced the small kitchen. "The files on the USB drive. Did you alter them?" "No. I swear. Those files are real. Michael's lawyers are lying." "How do I know that?"

“What’s going on? You’ve been in here a while.” “Well, Xavier was just letting me know dinner was wrapping up.” The lie rolled off my tongue before I could think, and I managed a small smile to make it more convincing. “I was also lost in our little discussion that I lost track of time.” Frank looked at me for a moment like he found something blue in what I said and then Xavier, I couldn’t read the plain expression he had, it was the kind of look that made you think he had some suspicious thoughts. My pulse hammered in my ears but I held his gaze, kept my shoulders lose and held on to the smile.

“My life can’t be greater, and I have a lovely daughter. I hope you can stop harassing us.” Playing along, Dave kept his mouth shut. Casen’s gaze finally fell on Leena. As he observed my arm linking with Dave’s, his complexion went pale, and his eyes reflected agony and resentment. He opened his mouth, but no words escaped his lips. I cocked my head to Dave and murmured, “Come on. We have an early start tomorrow.” With that, I brushed past with Dave, ditching Casen’s lonesome self in the back. I released my grip once we were in an empty corner. Feeling embarrassed, I looked at Dave.

"Lock you in? What are you talking about? You just need time to think. I did the same thing with your sister when she acted up. Now go!" "No…" "Dad, you can't…!" Judy rushed over. "You want to start, too? None of you ever make things easy for me!" He shoved Judy aside with one hand and pushed me forward with the other. "Dad…" I stumbled inside, my shoulder hitting a stack of boxes. The door slammed shut behind me, and the lock clicked. Darkness swallowed everything. "No… Don't lock it!" Everything fell away. All that was left were flashes of fear. The whip with barbs. The clamps biting into skin. Men laughing as they closed in, hands already at their belts.

] [And since we're already broken up, you have no right to even say something like you're disappointed in me. I sent the message, then tapped open my contact and blocked the number. The screen went dark and I went back to scrubbing the sheets. The next morning, my phone woke me up by vibrating more than a dozen times. Still half asleep, I opened it and found a long string of messages from my roommates, with a link at the top. The headline read: [Shocking news! The truth about Central University's wealthy heiress and her maid! Is the girl always beside Sophie an impostor?]

“, one of these men.” Mouth suddenly dropping, Chloe stared at the smiling, dashing men. “Who exactly, sir?” “The man in the middle is Amir Cook. He is the culprit.” Chloe did not know why her chest squeezed, but staring hard at his image just made it worse. “Pepper, this is not just about Natalie. We have some uncertainties, yet most probably true information about the illegal business of these men. Human trafficking.” Her eyes went back to Amir Cook. His smile was his best feature in the picture, then his eyes followed as they had their sparkle that just made his obvious clear skin and face structure look a lot better and it made her a bit jealous.“ Who are the others?”

Gray tapped the floor with his cane and growled, “Answer the phone. It’s time you suffer the consequences of your actions toward my granddaughter.” Once the call went through, Frank’s alarmed voice entered his ears. “A-Adam, you have to come back now! Why doesn’t your company account have any money? If they don’t get money, they’re going to capture me!” Shocked, Adam blurted, “What?” Ten hours later, Adam got off the plane, and he saw Leo waiting for him anxiously. Before the company got into trouble, Leo had called Adam countless times, but Adam had been busy begging for forgiveness from Ginnie and ignored those calls.

He laid out the accusations rigidly. Baranov hesitated, contemplating his next response which his life or empire might depend on. But because he was a stubborn mad man, he grinned like a wolf. “Guilty.” “You bastard,” Stefano hissed, clenching his fist, his rage simmering just beneath the surface.
