Riley Pronunciation Novels & Stories

Finally, Riley grunted. "Perfect. I've got Hemingway on my right and Yeats on my left." "Who's Yeats?" Stopping abruptly, Riley faced Brady. It took everything he had to continue the feigned innocence act while Riley glared at him like he'd clocked time in the land of stupid.

Riley murmured, too afraid to say what she suspected and jinx them. “It sounds like Mommy.” Paisley whispered in reply. “Where’s it coming from?” Ryder added eagerly. “Over there!” Riley exclaimed, pointing into the clouds. “Let’s go!”

Composing herself, Riley calmly ended the call and turned to face Gina, feigning obliviousness. "What is it, Gina?" Gina's eyes narrowed. "I distinctly heard you say Amira." Riley quickly interjected, "You misheard. I said Aliyah, not Amira." Gina's gaze remained firm. "I heard you correctly. It was Amira." Riley's tone turned blunt. "Maybe you should get your ears checked. They're clearly hindering your proper hearing."

Riley says as she drives the car. “What?” I say as I raise an eyebrow. “Don’t you think?” Riley says as she stares at me and raises an eyebrow. “I…I don’t know…” I say in stutters as I lean and sigh. “If she likes you, you’re lucky sissy!” Riley says. “What are you talking about?” I chuckle as I highly raise my voice.

He blinked in surprise, momentarily speechless. There was a beat of silence before Riley couldn’t contain herself, bursting into laughter. “Well, open it up! There are some really good names in there!” she teased, nudging him. River flipped the cover open, a look of disbelief mixed with amusement spreading across his face. “Newborn names, Riley? Why would I need….oh!” he gasped. “Wait…are you…” the words died on his lips. Riley nodded. Valerie made a squeaking sound, but no one else said anything.

His voice was a blend of anger and surprise. "I just got to know he is an important person in my life..." Riley took a deep breath and said. She had no heart to lie to Eash after he poured his heart out. Also, there was no other way she had to explain to him how she was feeling right now... She must speak the truth... Everything about it...

And the more they spoke, the more people believed in the rumors. Right now, her joy knew no bounds. That was why she was currently skipping her feet as she pushed the doors open and slammed into her sisters home. “Riley,” she called out with a huge grin on her face, “Where are you?” “Here,” a voice echoed out from the back of the home. Sydney grinned, her eyes widening as she followed the side doors of the home that led towards the courtyard. Riley sat there, her brows furrowed, and her cloak wrapped tightly around her as she laid half bent on an old stone bench. Her elbows rested on her knees as she looked up towards the evening sky, at the now rising moon.

CHAPTER 37 ~ASHLEY POINT OF VIEW~ “Oh, that…” I pour the liquor down my throat. “Yes. I don't know him or what he looks like. I never got to see him for a day.” Riley blinks, her stare lingers for a while.Then she bursts out laughing. “Oh my God—” she wheezes, clutching her stomach. “Ash ... .Ash, that is—” she gasps again, trying to breathe, “—that’s the craziest marriage I’ve ever heard in my entire miserable life!”

Riley smiled awkwardly at the tall man who was still an inch or two shorter than Damon. "H..hi... I'm Riley." Riley said softly as Fred stood in front of her with a wide grin on his face. "I'm Fred as Kayla has already introduced. It's nice to finally meet you Riley." Fred smiled at her genuinely.

Both of them did not speak. They suddenly heard sounds coming from the door. Claire pulled Mrs. Carter out, smiling brightly. “Riley is back. You haven’t seen him for a long time either. He misses his aunt every day!” Mrs. Carter put on a fake smile and lowered her voice. “Why did he come back? It’s better to find a job abroad!” “Don’t you want to meet his girlfriend?” Riley smiled and went over. She looked at Riley, who was wearing a pink suit and smiling as he walked in. His hair was slicked back, his face was greasy, and his facial features were sunken.
