Virtuous Lies Haley Jenner Novels & Stories

“Not forever. But long enough to start fighting back. You don’t have to run anymore. We can build something. We can make it so he doesn’t get to control the narrative.” “But what if he hurts someone else trying to find me?” I asked. “What if he uses my family? Or the media? You know what he’s capable of.” Damien exhaled slowly. “Then we take the power from him. Go public. Tell the truth. Every ugly piece of it. If we expose him, it’s over.” I felt my heart hammer in my chest. “You’d do that? Risk everything to take him down?” “I already have,” he said simply. “And I’d do it again.”

Zara’s sobbing echoed through the worn-out living room, raw and desperate. Drake held his swollen cheek, staring blankly, his mind completely empty. Diana’s broom clattered to the floor, her mouth hanging open. "W-what is going on?" Diana stammered, her voice shaking. "Did you get the wrong person? That’s just Liana… She doesn’t even have a proper job—" "Shut up!" Zara snapped, spinning around, eyes bloodshot. "A nobody? She’s the CEO of Halcyon Group! The richest person in Aurelion! You idiots couldn’t tell the difference between power and nothing. You’ve ruined everything! You’ve ruined me!"

My heartbeat quickened, the sound of it loud in my ears. “No, I’ve not,” I said quickly. The lie came out smoother than I expected. Too smooth. I tried to keep my face relaxed, hoping there was nothing in my expression that gave me away. Hoping he didn’t already know the truth. “Hmm,” he murmured, like he was thinking. “Well, good thing,” he said after a moment. “Because I got a mail from an unknown source telling me that you have been married before…” My stomach dropped. “…I mean, at first I wasn’t really sure,” he continued, rubbing the back of his neck casually. “I spoke to Clara, but she insisted that it was your story to tell… which was why I asked.”

my mother's head drops as she looks at the ground and says "I am sorry my love but he is not lying, I was the one that owed the money to the mafia, I was the one that had your father whore you out to those men, It was me not your father." To Be Continued....

Sharing is caring, they say. Hailey! I’m not shacking up with him! And no. I’m not sharing him. Go find your own man! >< So, you admit it! You’re totally shacking up with him then! OMG Zurielle! Did he take your V card? ^_^ Come on. You can tell Hailz <3 What was he like? I bet he was a beast in bed. I want ALL the details! Hailey! :O No! I’m still a virgin. You’re being a hail storm, and you can’t ask me those kinds of questions!

Hailey scooted closer to Giovanni, who's leaning to cut a piece of cake for her. 'They had the audacity to look like a married couple in front of me.' Jana hid her smile so hard. 'I don’t approve.' "You too, Ms. Queenie." Hailey said, "Giovanni said you've been interviewed countless times before." 'Yes, I've been there. Can't you believe it? Don't worry. I've got something else to confess; I'm the villain who is about to ruin your life. Ain't it fantastic? Don't hate me. It's not my own volition. You can't just leave me to die, right?' Jana nodded and lifted a corner of her mouth. "Hailey, nice meeting you."

It did not matter how bright I was because when it came to those whom I loved; I failed to be reasonable. “Who are you?” That suspicion in his eyes scared me, and ultimately my lips trembled. “I am Elenore Levine, and I’m not a virgin. I didn’t want you to discover it, so I had undergone a hymen surgery. You know that’s a repair surgery, don’t you?” I squeezed my eyelids shut and swallowed. Driving my tears back, I didn’t want to let the cat out of the bag. When you lie to someone, it stretches until that lie becomes a beast to devour you.

In Viola’s case, the truth was that she was a woman who was highly misunderstood and framed to look evil but now justice has prevailed. On behalf of myself and every other person who once accused you of being a liar and a disgrace to womanhood, I apologize. I had no right to bash a fellow woman like that, I was unprofessional and foolish about things. From now on, I will no longer be working as a head journalist at Zenith TV. Once more our prayers are with Viola as she is in labor. I am Laura Hale.” I sighed as I looked at the TV, tears trickling down my cheeks as I looked at the woman who I knew was popular for notoriously bashing me and labeling me a liar, step down as a journalist, and ap

I shriveled in shame; now, everyone knows I'm a virgin, and my cheeks are so red right now. "Hailey , why," I whined. I shouldn't have told her; forget Cafe Girl, I'm going to be called Virgin Girl. She looks excited; why me? On the other hand, I flashed a smile so it wouldn't be obvious I'm humiliated as hell, facepalming myself. "What do you think? It's easy to be a virgin. All you whores, I'm proud of her. She has the right to stay a virgin," God, kill me now, I thought as Hailey gave a speech hoping it would help, but she just made it even worse.

“But honesty is a two-way street. And sometimes, the people we love the most are the ones who lie to us the most.” She nodded at the AV coordinator. The screen behind her lit up. First, the hotel video: Luna bragging about the $1 million, Lucas laughing, the fake necklace glinting.
