You Lied Novels & Stories

Triston turned back to me, “Of course I told her, remember Iris?” I got the suggestion, “This is Alexadrea.” I heard him remind me. Well, tell me for the first time. “Now I recall,” I lied. “How is she?” “She’s great.” Marcus gushed, “You know she’s an actress, right? Just like you, sis,” I hadn’t been an actress since what I had done. I gave up all that to keep Triston. “Really?” I smiled at him, “That’s great. What is she on?” Marcus tilted his head,

on the screen, I felt an overwhelming wave of irony. "Honey, why didn't you reply? Are you feeling unwell? Do you want me to come back to accompany you?" His anxious voice came through the moment I picked up numbly. "I was in the shower and didn't see your message. Focus on your work. Come back when you're done." I lied. I didn't want to see him right now. Rudolf exhaled audibly, relieved, then said gently, "Alright, get some rest. I'll bring you a gift when I come back."

he said, trying to lighten the mood. “They lied,” I said truthfully.

When I finally picked up, the first thing she said was, “Honey, I’m feeling really unwell today. Can you wire me two thousand dollars? I need to get more asthma medication.” Hearing her voice, a scoff surfaced in my heart. She had no idea I had uncovered her lies. She still thought I was the same gullible fool she could push around. If I sent her the money now, she would definitely use it to refill Derek’s medication. With that thought, I replied coldly, “I’m in the hospital. I don’t have money to send you.”

"They didn't tell you." "No," I lied. "They did not tell me." "That's extremely messed up." I let out a sound that was half laugh and half something else entirely. "Yes. It is."

“I’ve been useless. I won’t be able to take care of you in the future.” “All I hope now is that you two live a happy life together. As long as your hearts are united, there's nothing you can’t overcome.” She cried as she spoke, and I cried with her. Jack held me tightly, swearing to protect me for a lifetime. But in the end, he broke that promise. He cheated on me with his childhood sweetheart. Seeing that I was still ignoring him, Jack suddenly knelt down with a thud. “Laura, I really know I was wrong. I love you—I can’t live without you!”

The crate clattered to the ground. “She wanted to forgive me for something,” Lloyd said smoothly, as if amused. Cole’s eyes narrowed. “Is that so?” He turned to me. “Forgive him for what?” Lloyd tilted his head. “Trying to orchestrate another hero moment, are you, brother? Did you get her dow here?” Cole’s expression darkened, but his grip didn’t loosen. “Scarlett, what did you mean forgive?” I stammered. “F-for the basement. For what he did to me… when we were kids.”

His voice remains calm. Controlled. That somehow makes it worse. I stare out the glass windows of my office. The city stretches endlessly below. Busy. Loud. Alive. Meanwhile my heart suddenly feels too loud inside my chest. “You left,” I say quietly. Another pause. Then— “I did.” No excuses. No lies. No attempt to deny it. And somehow that annoys me even more. “You don’t get points for honesty now.” “I know that too.” God. Why does he sound like this?

“Help me, Lucian. Help me escape… for the last time.” His lips parted and his eyes softened. “Sammy…” I sobbed and wiped my tears. “He lied to me, Lucian. He's a liar, just like Dylan.” His eyes flickered with something that made me still. He heaved a sigh. “Sammy, he's going to tell you—” “So, you knew,” I said in a cold and stiff voice as I took a step back. “I-I just found out yesterday. I told him to tell you the truth, and he said he will but…”
