Truth And Other Lies Novels & Stories

“I am asking because, you are very strange and am really confused. You know too much, you are acting obsessively. You live a double lifestyle. What if your other lifestyle is a lie? The one you act as Jake and as seamus. What if it’s a lie? What if your real name isn’t Jake De Walter?” I asked, staring into his eyes. Jake held my gaze without a wavering eye. He looked like he was doing a lot of thinking. He smiled, leaving the bed.

“Is that what you think of me?” “I think…” I trail off, chewing my lip before deciding to evade the question. “I think you’re usually trying to disappear. And helping us sneak out? That’s the opposite of disappearing.” He exhales a slow breath and moves to stand beside me, close enough that I can feel the heat from his arm, but not close enough to touch. “Sometimes,” he says, voice thoughtful, “it’s easier to disappear than to be misunderstood. Easier to distance than to react.”

Everything he had done in the dark was now exposed to the light of day. "Victoria, I know I've wronged you these past three years. I shouldn't have lied to you, but you have to trust me when I say I've long fallen for you and I love you…" he started, but I cut him off. "You think I would still believe you?" I asked, my voice trembling with contempt. "To be loved by you—it's an insult!" The mechanic's wife handed over the video, an irrefutable piece of evidence. And the transfer records further confirmed the financial exchanges between Zach and Kayla.

Marc said—voice cracking on the last word. Damien nodded once. Squeezed his hand. “You have it.” They drove back in silence—rain hammering the roof, wipers sweeping steady rhythm. Marc watched the city blur past—streetlights bleeding into puddles, billboards glowing through the haze, life moving on without them. The folder lay on the seat between them like a bridge they weren’t sure they could cross. The chain pressed warm against his chest. The folder felt like proof of every lie he’d told himself for months.

He looked at my father and gave Dave a very hard look, then walked out. “What are you doing here?” “That's not how you speak to your husband, Rhea.” My father's voice was calm. I sat up straighter, ignoring the pain shooting through my ribs. “I don't know what he told you, but it's all lies. Every word…” “I know everything.” He cut me off. “The surrogate. The ex-girlfriend. The donor eggs due to your medical complications. Which part is the lie?” My mouth opened in disbelief. “You…you can't actually think this is okay.”

" Reynold fell silent instantly, sliding down the wall until he sat helplessly on the floor. Brian crouched beside him and patted his shoulder. He said, "I've known you both for years, and I've witnessed everything Adrianna has done for you. Five years ago, when your company's funding dried up and debt collectors came after you, she stepped in front of them. Without her, they would have torn you apart. He continued, "Later, she went around securing sponsorships, drinking and entertaining business executives until she had ulcers—and she never told you about it. "But what about you? Look at what you've done—which of your actions has shown any appreciation for her sacrifices? Think about this t

On our wedding day, my fiancée and brother died in a tragic crash, and the shock left my mother completely bedridden. Everyone blamed me, saying I brought misfortune and death to everyone around me. However, I didn't even have time to grieve. I worked myself to the bone, hauling concrete at construction sites by day and delivering food by night, just to afford my mother's medical bills. Then came the day I took a side job wearing a mascot suit for a grand opening event. One employee mentioned, "Our boss is super rich and handsome, and his wife is so sweet. Their family is so loving. They even rescue stray cats and dogs all the time!" I stayed quiet, only worried about whether I'd make it

“Sometimes, Liam, when people feel hurt or angry, or when they can’t get what they want, they make up stories to try and hurt others. The things they are saying about me aren’t true. But sometimes, even lies need to be looked at carefully, and the truth needs to be shown clearly so everyone can see it.” Liam frowned thoughtfully. “Like at school. Some kids tell stories to make people laugh or to get someone in trouble. But the truth always comes out eventually, right?” “Exactly,” Kael said, a small smile tugging at his lips. “It’s just like that. And sometimes, it takes a little time and patience, but the truth always finds its way to the surface.” “Are you scared?” Liam asked suddenly.

She thoughts she has won because she shouted at him and filled his ears with rumours from jobless people who made gossiping their daily routine as if they will get millions of money or awards for each rumour they made. Rumours are true, people will not see a fire without smoke, they will never say what they didn't see or happened, the problem is they will add a huge portion of lies to it; five per cent of truths they saw or happened and ninety-five per cent of lies, big lies. And the strangest and funniest thing about rumours is that people tend to add their own exaggeration; lies as they gossipped or passed to another person, that person will add his/her own exaggeration; lies and passed to
