Novel & Cerita U Lie In April

Lily’s pov I felt some sharp pain in my ribs coming from Osiris, so I mindlinked him to check if he was okay. I knew he was going to see the prisoner. “Osiris are you hurt? I just felt some pain” Osiris sounded like he was fine, although his tone was very business-like “it is already healing, the prisoner tried to escape. I will explain later.” I was just showing April around “it’s really beautiful Luna, I can’t wait to start. I have some ideas on how we can improve your business.” I smiled “thank you April. I’d love to hear your ideas, but we have to keep prices low. I want the paintings to be available for anyone to buy.” April nodded “I will see how much you spend on making the painting a

“But I don’t understand… why would he lie like that?” April was silent, as if she were considering her options, trying to understand what was going through Finn's head. “I have no idea either,” she mumbled, still confused. “But are you sure nothing ever happened between you two? There wasn’t… any time when you felt insecure or…” I interrupted her, hand-raising to dispel that train of thought. “No, there wasn’t. There was nothing, April.” She nodded, still looking thoughtful. “So what is he trying to do? Why lie about it?”

Mysterious but extremely powerful in the words of Emily. “What do you want, Alexander?” “You got the flowers.” “That wasn’t a question.” A pause. Then— “I wasn’t sure you still liked peonies.” The uncertainty in his voice catches me off guard. Not dramatic. Not manipulative. Just… honest. Like he realizes time changes people. Like he knows I’m not fourteen anymore. “I do,” I admit before I can stop myself. Silence stretches briefly between us. Then— “I’m glad.” The simplicity of it unsettles me more than flirting would have.

Just then, his phone chimed with a message from Monica. Monica: "Reynold, my stomach still hurts so much. Why haven't you come to check on me?" Monica: "Is Adrianna okay? It's all my fault. I should apologize to her… Please don't be mad at her, okay?" Monica: "Reynold, if you're busy, just take good care of Adrianna. Don't worry about me. I can manage on my own." A wave of irritation surged through Reynold. He blocked Monica's number and nervously entered my hospital room.

⸻ “…what do you want?” Finally. ⸻ I closed my eyes. ⸻ “Choose.” ⸻ A long pause followed. ⸻ “You have forty-eight hours,” I continued. “Call me back—and we end this peacefully.” ⸻ My tone hardened. ⸻ “Don’t call…” ⸻ I opened my eyes. ⸻ “And we go to war.” ⸻ Real war. ⸻ Not shadows. Not secrets. ⸻ The kind that burns countries to the ground.

I snapped back irritably, "Did you forget? You couldn't even tell what was left of me when you went to collect my body! So what are you still unsure about?" Laurel let out a long sigh. "I remember. You were basically mush. I had nightmares for days after that." Vita frowned. "We're not doubting whether you were killed. We're just not sure how you still got labeled a fraud when you're the real heiress." Who the hell knew? The four of us put our heads together and still couldn't come up with a reasonable explanation. Laurel started sniffling. "What do we do now? The only ones whose ages match are the four of us. There aren't any other candidates. With that psycho family, I honestly think if no

Every time, I was the one covered in wounds, while Tina pretended to be wronged and complained to him. The second video showed the inhuman abuse I had suffered in that couple's home. The third video showed me after I was thrown out. I had to sleep on the ground under a bridge. Since I could not move like a normal person, I could only lie there every day and survive by selling blood, barely covering food. Watching how strangely I was moving and the miserable life I had in those videos, James nearly went hysterical. Then, Wendy held her phone screen up in front of him. "Alicia wanted to wear something nice before she passed away, but she never expected that... On the way..."

I'll come find you. I stared at the message and let out a laugh that turned into tears. I did not reply. Instead, I blocked and deleted his contact, along with every one of his friends. 'Nolan. Your April Fools' game ends here. I'm done playing.' I told myself that silently.

"Okay, fine. His name was Liam." My mind racing, I grilled her with questions. "When exactly? What year?" April's smile began to falter. "Um, it was...freshman year." I narrowed my eyes. "And how long did it last?" April shifted uncomfortably. "A few months." My thoughts whirled. If April had been in a relationship, then why was she crying at night? Was she still hurting from the breakup? I pressed on, determined to uncover the truth. "What happened? Why did you break up?"

It was going to make things easier. ******* Once Levi and April arrived at the apartment, with teary eyes and broken voice, April insisted on the same. Levi tried to divert her attention but soon he found out that April really wanted to do it and she wasn’t going to change her mind, so it was better he and Rose helped her to finish with that shit. In the end, April was the key. “Rose is on the way,” Levi let her know. April sat down on the couch. She was too hurt that life wasn’t the same since the pain Lucian caused her. The hell! Her life was never the same since she met him.
