Morally Ambiguous Veronica Lancet Novels & Stories

“Defamation is still a crime.” “Oh, I’m not accusing anyone,” Veronica replied, smiling with saccharine sweetness. “I’m simply observing that if OmniCorp were to learn that one of their merger partners had engaged in questionable disbursements to cover up… let’s say… an inappropriate relationship resulting in a child? Well, that could make things very messy.” Bella’s hands went cold. Her past, the truth of Lila’s conception was being weaponized. Veronica knew about George’s payoff to Martha. About the silence he bought with money.

“That’s a lot of confidence.” “It’s not confidence,” Veronica corrected sharply. “It’s clarity. I’ve wasted too much time being her shadow. But after what she did to you... and the way she turned on me when it suited her...I’m done protecting her lies.” Cassie studied her carefully, searching for cracks in her resolve. But there was none. Veronica’s eyes burned with conviction, her voice steady. “Fine,” Cassie said at last. “Let’s assume I believe you. What kind of dirt are we talking about?”

She avoided her sister’s glare and ignored Natasha who tried to grab her hand as she walked past her. At the witness stand, she was given a bible with which she swore. She swore to say nothing but the truth, but somehow I felt she was going to say the filtered truth. Veronica wouldn’t come up here to say something that will put her in trouble. “Can you tell this court what you know about the death of Mr. Derek Shirley?” Veronica looked at Vera briefly before clearing her throat. “Before I say anything, I’ll like to apologize to my sister Vera.” She looked at her again. “I know you think I betrayed you, but I want you to know that I’m only doing the right thing.”

"And who is that girl?" Seeing the Dean, Veronica didn't look ashamed; she played the victim. "Dean, I was just about to file a complaint. Lance has lost his mind. He let a nameless rogue into the ICU without any clearance!" The Dean didn't have time for her excuses. He knew Lorenzo was watching. "I am asking you one more time: Why. Aren't. You. In. There?" "The paperwork wasn't finished, and besides..." Veronica turned up her nose, her elitist attitude on full display. "A patient with such a 'common' background doesn't exactly require an expert of my caliber, does it?"

She would rather end her life than let this filth of a human being defile her. Sammy came at her and punched her hard in the stomach, making her double over with pain. He then kicked her and she went flying across the shed. With her last strength, she got on all fours, throwing up the broth she had eaten earlier. Sammy was already mad with rage. Taking the knife that had fallen when Sandy attacked Vinca, he ran to where she had landed. Vinca saw the knife slash toward her and roll to the edge of the shed. She knew she was about to die. Using the wall as support, she slid up and faced him. As he came charging towards her, she shifted slightly at the last second and he rammed into the wall.

“No, what exactly is going on here? Veronica, I am asking you, what is going on here!” “I can explain everything to you mother…ma'am…” Bianca volunteered but Mrs Williams shot her a stern look that shut her up. Veronica let out a shaky breath before she started towards Mrs Williams. She knew a day like that was going to come. But she didn't know it was close. Over and again, she had mentally prepared for it but even at that moment as she dragged her wobbling legs towards Mrs Williams, she felt so helpless. “Is she speaking the truth? Is this really Lawrence’s child?”

Lilith was currently taking pictures against her will. “I will kill you!” Veronica screamed. The nurse put her hand on her head and shoved it back down. “If you don’t hold still, I will stab you.” “Really?” Luca said loud enough that everyone stopped moving. Veronica slowly turned around, moving her hair out of her face so she could see us. “Hello….” “Next time I come down here, you don’t run and tell Alpha Luca.” I said, glaring at the nurse. She had the decency to nod and look down before moving back at Veronica. “Yes, Luna.”

Aries knitted his eyebrows as she accused him, and he stood up to face her. “I know you are aiming to acquire his hard-earned money, like Cynthia and Alfred Doyle, and you will realize your ambition after marrying Isla!” Veronica looked into his eyes. “Cut the charade!” Her slender finger pointed at his heart. “Your heart is black, and it has no good intentions for me!” “This is getting interesting now!” the signature smirk was on his sexy lips again and Veronica glared at him. She attempted to walk away when he seized her waist, her breast was pressed against his hard chest and Veronica parted her lips.
