Novel & Cerita The Lies He Told Me Series

“You didn’t put your hands on me in the way you’re thinking. We had an argument. We disagreed. It happens in every relationship. I’m fine. Nothing happened last night.” For the first time since waking, he looked at me directly. Just for a second. Then his gaze dropped again. “Say it,” I pressed, desperate. “Say nothing happened last night.” I waited, hope flickering weakly in my chest. But as the seconds stretched, it became clear he wasn’t going to give me the lie I wanted. Finally, he spoke, his voice quiet but devastatingly final. “Something happened last night, Lizzie. I’m sorry… but I can’t lie to myself.”

I began carefully forcing my voice to stop shaking, "I know you're probably mad about what happened earlier but I guess you've taken your anger out already.” His eyes darkened, “At least now you have a chance to clear your name,” I continued, “I don't, and that's okay. Perfectly fine by me." Was it? I swallowed. “That's the consequences of my lie anyway,” I said but he said nothing. He walked behind his desk, opened a drawer and brought out a pack of cigarette. The sound of foil tearing echoed loudly in the quiet room and he lit one slowly. Smoke curled around him, blurring his features. “I have to go,” I said finally.

“I carried it quietly because it felt easier than admitting how much it hurt. I didn’t want it to become my whole story, nor did I want anyone’s pity.” Silence fell between them again until Nathaniel spoke, his voice lowered, unhurried, carrying an authority that made Serena listen. “It explains the scars on your ankles, the burn on your hand, and how you were always on edge around your parents. Serena, do you realize you chose to lie to me?" Serena looked away. Yes, it was true. When Nathaniel had asked her about her scars, she had lied. Back then, she said: “I burned myself while learning how to cook.”

He walked over to me and kissed my forehead. “Did you enjoy the trip?” he asked. I nodded. “It was beautiful. Thank you for planning it.” He smiled and sat on the edge of the bed. “I meant what I said. I want us to start fresh. No more tests. No more lies. Just us.” I forced a smile. “I want that too.” He left the room after a while. I sat alone for a long time, staring at the wall. The lies were piling up. The recordings on my phone. The money transfers. The way he had stood up and laughed about me. I could not keep pretending forever.

He asked, “There’s no more to it, I was banished as I said earlier hence you met me at the desert” I couldn’t remember the words I said to him earlier so I wrapped my head around the basis of my lies. One thing I hate about lies is that I’m not good at it and when the truth unfolds it would be disastrous. “Ok if you say so, I hate lies and one thing I hate about them is the consequences the teller faces” He chuckles as I put a smile on my face.

He immediately shifts his attention back to me and laces his fingers with mine. "I promise. No more lies," I answer, and her face goes soft. There I said it. I've been lying. Now I can't back out. Now she will know the truth. The glaringly awful truth. Lorraine takes a seat on the recliner, and I pull Ethan to our couch. I take a deep breath and close my eyes.

Lewis said, looking sad as he coiled his hands into fists. Tears streamed down my face, feeling hurt. “Lewis, you said you loved me.” “Yes… I did and I do… very much.” I looked up at him as more tears streamed down my face. Something Jace said hitting me hard. ‘It’s like your whole life is based on lies.’ A sharp pang of pain shot through my chest. “Tell me Lewis… are you supposed to lie to someone you love?”

"Liam, I'm so sorry." "Fifteen years." Liam's voice was raw. "Fifteen years I've been living with lies. Thinking my mother's death was random. An accident. Bad luck. But it was him. It was always him. And he's been lying to my face this entire time. Making me think he cared. Making me think family mattered. When all he cared about was control." Janet knelt beside him. Wrapped her arms around him. Let him cry into her shoulder like he was a kid instead of a grown man.
