Many A True Word Spoken In Jest นิยาย & เรื่องราว

“If the Council demands the King present me, what happens when he says no?” “They throw a tantrum with better vocabulary,” Milo said. “We barricade,” Jarek said. “That escalated quickly.” “It is our hobby.” Somewhere under the panic, a tiny laugh survived. “Teach me something useful,” I said. “A word.” “A word!” Milo beamed. “Jarek, give her the scariest, sexiest word in the den.” “Useful,” Jarek corrected. He considered, then spoke a low syllable that hummed like the runes.

My words tumbled out, desperate and broken. But he just stared at me like I was nothing. Like he didn’t feel the same fire burning in my chest that was eating me alive. My voice cracked. "You felt it… you have to." But King Jester only shook his head slowly, as if I were some crazy stranger. "You’re a Stealer," he said, his voice low but heavy, like thunder before a storm. "Men feel strange things around you. They mistake it for a bond, but it’s fake. It’s cursed. You are cursed."

He yelled, looking frustrated. "The feeling is mutual!" I said to him with a dead straight serious face. "That was supposed to make you laugh out and say 'you finally caught me, buddy! What was that?' not this, nah! You are taking the words literally which isn't supposed to be so! How hard can it be to laugh at a simple joke? Were you told that if you laugh, you will die or you might lost your respect among the people? Not like the people love or like you or so but… no, don't get me wrong, it not like the people dislike you, I can't talk about hate but they just don't dislike you," he said as length.

Was that some kind of joke or what? “You can always find your way around it?” I scoffed, blinking my eyes rapidly in surprise. “Can you listen to yourself right now? You can find your way around it? I mean, what if something goes wrong? I'm not going to allow you gamble with my life. So, it's either you're sure about this, or I'm out.” “There you go again.” he said, heaving a sigh. “I was only joking with you. Do you really think that I would spend that much time and not memorize just four lines?”

“Hmm?” “If you keep talking like a LinkedIn motivational speaker, I’m going to throw up all over your father’s car interior.” He turned, blue eyes dropping to my face. “My joke was good.” “Your joke sounds like it was raised in a boardroom.” “That’s slander.” “That’s autobiography.”

“Relax will you, your heart, think of your heart.” “You know I do not have that when it comes to you and your jokes.” The managers foreshadowing words. Like screaming from the inside that Aaron’s lies and jokes will not buy him a free pass, nor he will be able to fool an experience and smart woman like her. “Come on, I am not playing games right now. Besides, I didn’t confirm to everyone that what they just think is the truth. You all jump to the conclusion without even knowing the facts.” “Really?”

It felt as if she would discover it immediately. So I just stood there, lost for words. Then her eyes widened as if a realization came over her. “Oh my goodness, is it true?” I pulled my head back, surprised again. “What is that supposed to mean?” She chuckled, amused. “My goodness, I only said that as a joke. I never actually thought it was true, but by your reaction, it is clear that there is an element of truth to it.” I swallowed. “Ellie, stop saying nonsense. None of that is true.”

He has been making me feel like he wants to court me but I don't take what he says seriously so he can't court me formally. "When the crow turns white, I might answer your courtship," I joked to him with a smile. Anjo just scratched when our colleagues at work laughed when they heard my answer to him. We are better off like this. Making everything a joke rather than taking it seriously because he would only be hurt by me.

It was echoing across the whole room, and I swear I wanted to push his head off for finding it funny as if he was both mocking and bullying me for the idea of revenge. His eyes shifted to me with a lopsided grin, “Awe, what's that frown for? Did you really believe that? Well, I have to warn you, I’m just joking. ” He said, "They say I was never the serious type of person, so do not believe what I said." I maintained my poker face, scowling at him, “That’s not a good joke. That’s treason.” I said, “And you are their triplet.”

" Lillian asked Jay,he wasn't behaving cheerful like before,he looked afraid and nervous. "Am I not supposed to?" It still rained and it was past nine pm. " It was a joke" Joy said it was a joke smiling, she noticed everyone in the room was looking serious and Jay's hand trembled. " You said truth,but you were playing, it was a joke? That was one expensive joke." Mark placed his fingers on Lillian's shoulder, he told her to calm down,he was also calming himself down. "Am I not allowed to tell jokes? You all are just like him,pretending to be nice when you're not !"
