Lies Behind Bars: The Hidden Life MAKING A CONNECTION
"Making a connection?" she murmured, taking a bite from the pizza and gulping down the remnant of food in her mouth."Is that not what you want?" he asked, and the room fell silent. Lila silently munched on her food, not because she did not have a thousand thoughts running around in her mind but because she did not know how to put them into words that would make sense. "You are awfully quiet," Damien said, breaking off the silence. He had broken the silence, so it felt weird that she was not talking again."Can I ask you some questions?" she said suddenly. "Strangely, you want to ask me questions, but I guess you can," he said, dropping the pizza back into the box. "You should not do that," she said, looking around. "I forgot to bring plates," she said, unfolding her legs and standing up. She shook them to get the blood flowing through them again. "I can go get the plates instead," he volunteered, trying to stand up. She bent so she could reach his shoulders, and she pushed him dow

"You want to know?" She said she was turning so she could look at his face, and no matter how she looked at him, she could not understand the expression on his face or what it meant. "You want to know?" she said, picking each word as if she were about to tear it apart. He picked up the cup and gulped half of the content before clenching his mouth and turning to her. "What I meant was..." He trailed off because he did not know how to tell her that the only reason he was sitting in her living room acting like they were close was just because he had to get closer with her so he could distract her. "Was?" she urged him when the silence lingered for longer than she was expecting; even if he was trying to make a dramatic silence stall for longer than necessary, it was not going to make him seem special. "I thought you were interesting," he said, pressing his heels together. "Was? Did I now seem boring to you when you got to know me? Just boring plain Lila who likes eating pizza and drin

"That was fast," Lila murmured when he walked back into the room. "Did you want me to sleep on the call?" he asked, and she shook her head. "I said that because I thought it was a convenience call and that it might take you a long time to sort it out," she said, pressing down the can of beer in hand and dropping it to the table. She looked at the pizza and wondered if he bought too much; even if Oliver was to join them, she was a hundred per cent sure that he was not going to turn their offer down and tell them that they were destroying their perfectly good bodies. "It was a personal call," he said, sitting beside her."Ohh," she said, nodding. He expected her to ask more questions. He narrowed his eyes at her side, and she sat silently munching on her pizza slice."You know the people that called me just now," he said when she did not say anything for a long time and they sat in silence. "I do? I do not think so.""But you know them.""Well, I highly doubt it; I do not know anyon

"See how easy that was?" Gavin said with a boastful smile on his face. "Woah, I have to say Damien shocked me." "All men are the same; I am sure he wants to know more about the woman who is desperately laughing herself to him, he said, chugging down his beer. "And who better to tell him than her ex?""Be careful not to get on his bad side though; we all know what kind of nasty temper he has." "I have got all of this under control," he said with pride. When he decided to call Damien, he was not sure what the outcome was going to be. He feared that Damien may not take him seriously, but seeing how he did not hesitate to meet, he was sure that he had some doubts about Lila and wanted some clarification."I better get." "Already? I thought you came here to get better. Are you telling me you feel better already?" Daniel asked."Of course I do," Gavin said, standing up and walking out of the bar.Daniel watched his friend go and wondered what kind of person he was. It was obvious that

"Gray, I will be having a visitor today, so find a way to fit that into my schedule," Damien said as they walked from the elevator to his office. "A visitor?" Gray asked, taking notes on the electronic tablet he had in his hands. The question of who was bubbling in his mind, but he could ask that because he knew that he would have mentioned it if he wanted"Also bring me some black hot coffee; I think I might need it.""Coffee?" Gray asked shocked because his boss rarely asked for coffee and hearing he was asking for dark and hot coffee so early in the morning.Damien did not know how it made sense, but he had stayed up all night thinking about Lila and her reaction. He did not know much about relationships since he had only ever dated one person in his life, but for some reason, he could not shake the feeling of how sad and alone she must have been to be able to react the way she did. Everytime, he shook his head and closed his eyes, trying to remind himself that it was not his bus

“You do not look shocked,” Gavin said. He had expected that Damien would have been so shaken that it would have shown on his face. “Because I already knew," Damien said and shrugged, bending back to his meal and eating like nothing had just happened. "You know, and yet you are still with her?" "With her? What do you mean that I am with her?" Damien asked. He had truly thought that this man sitting away from him was going to come up with something he did not already know about Lila. He had spent enough time researching to be able to know all that there is to know. But seeing that Lila and Gavin had spent six years together, it only made sense that he was supposed to know more than any other person. "Arent you tigetehr?" Gavin asked, wondering if he had got the wrong idea about the two of them. "What does that have to do with you?" Damien asked. He still could not see where Gavin was going with any of these. "I mean, I just thought that the other day after seeing you, you might be
Huling Na-update : 2024-12-07Lies Behind Bars: The Hidden Life CALLS ON THE LINE
"Mr. Carson, you have a call from Mr. Calloway." His assistant's voice rang through the intercom and then beeped dead. He looked at his phone, beeping a red light back at him to indicate that the phone was waiting for him to pick it up. He picked up the receiver and put it to his ears, wondering if this was some kind of joke on him because Damien never cried out first."Damien?" Oliver was shocked to get a call from Damien. He had tried for years to get close to him, but all that Damien had done was raise a wall between them, and no matter how much he tried, he was blocked every single time. "Oliver," Damien said back. Damien had been surprising himself in these recent times. He had been the one to reach out to Oliver to ask to be steered up with his sister, and now he was getting worried about Lila. He was trying to convince himself that the reason for him crying out to Oliver was not that he was worried but because he did not like to think that a small fry like Gavin was trying to

"I am so glad that you thought of me," Arietta squealed as they walked through the mall. "I needed help, and I did not have anyone else to call," Lila said in a low voice. She had reached out to Arietta, asking if she could take her shopping. She needed new clothes if she was going to be able to live her life. "I am still glad that you thought of me even after the way I embarrassed you the other day." "Embrassed me?" Lila said in a dismissive tone. "You did not embarrass me; you just got the wrong idea, and I mean, anyone can do that," she added. She did not want to have a bad history with the girl just because of one example mistake. They could grow to be a bunch of friends and may not even know it just because she decided to keep a grudge. "You ate so nice, and I am going to make sure you have a very nice time as well," Arietta promised, latching onto her hand and pulling her away. Lila felt her phone vibrating in her pocket; she took it out and looked at it. "Oliver is calling

Lies Behind Bars: The Hidden Life EVIDENCE
It took a while before the officers came to release all civilians from the room they kept them safe, the criminal was found and even transferred from their station to a more secure one. It was then that Lila knew that her mother and brother were standing outside the entire time. By the time they came in, Kevin was already speaking with the officers about how he would like to keep Gavin in there until there was evidence.Tessa did not pay any heed to Lila but walked straight to Kevin, who was arguing with the officer he was speaking to. "Mr. Voss," Tessa said as she approached him. Kevin turned around to see her and smiled with the base of his lips."Mrs. Carson, it has really been a while since I saw you," he said, turning to her."Can we talk a bit?" Tessa asked and he nodded. "Can we have some privacy, please?" she asked the officer who was still standing by them. The man looked flustered but his expression changed to gratitude because he was happy that he had found a way to escape.
Lies Behind Bars: The Hidden Life VULNERABLE
Gray nodded and then turned to Damien. "I have something to report sir"Damien looked up from his phone, he could not understand Lila's response for some reason it felt as if she was suddenly closed off. He did not understand how he was able to feel it but the feeling was there and he could not shake it off."Go on" Damien nodded switching off the screen and putting the phone on the table. "What is it?" he asked when it felt as if Gray was trying his best to gather his thoughts together."You asked me to keep tabs on Mr Voss and his assistant just reported that they are currently at the station but are not being allowed in because a serial killer broke lose in the statin""So he can't..." Damien trailed off with his eyebrows knitting together, he looked to Gray hoping that he would tell him that it was not what he thought and all was well. "Is Lila?""Yes sir, she was already in the station before the incident"Damien stood up, his heart broke at the news. He had been against her goin
Lies Behind Bars: The Hidden Life SERIALLY
Lila stared at the screen; she knew that she should not pick up but her heart was doing a number on her. She pressed her lips together and watched the phone screen go off after the call ended but almost immediately his call came in again. How was she supposed to ignore his calls after what happened between them last night?The call stopped and then a message came in. "Are you busy? Should I call later? Is now not a good time?" The messages poured in and she read them in her head; she could hear him saying it to her.She slid her hand across to open up the chat; all she wanted to do was to tell him about what was going on but how could she? She took a deep breath and replied, "Yes, I am; let us talk later." She pulled together all of her willpower and sent the message out. It was lacking but that will do for now.She knew he would be confused with her reply and would want to reach out again; she heard commotion outside but she thought nothing of it; after all, this was a station and it
Lies Behind Bars: The Hidden Life PERSISTS
As soon as Lila stepped outside, she felt the need to call Damien. She did not know why but she felt that as soon as he heard his voice, all of the worries and fear in her heart would automatically disappear. She walked towards the toilet. The first thing she did was check through the entire bathroom stall to ensure that no one was there before she suppressed all she was feeling within her. She called her mom first even though her finger itched to call Damien instead. "What do you mean he knows?" "I mean that Gavin seems suspicious of me and thinks he is getting a hunch that we are trying to play him," Lila explained, even though she knew that her mother understood what she meant. "I understand that I am asking why you are calling me instead of doing something about it." Her mother's words shocked her. "You want me to think about something on my own and do it?" she asked, biting her lips afterwards because stringing the words together in her mind did not make sense and it even ma
Lies Behind Bars: The Hidden Life RUMBLE
"Lila, you must think that I am a fool.""Gavin Holt, do you want me to call you a lawyer or do you want to sit there and accuse me of something so absurd that I have no idea?" she asked. Gavin was sure of what he had put together in his mind but seeing how she was acting, his thoughts began to jumble up in his mind. It was as if all of his thinking was becoming distorted and for what reason? It made no sense to him at all."Are you saying you did not go to Kevin with the evidence from that day?" "Why would I go to him with it? I already told you that we are going to get married and be together for a long time so if I want that to happen, why would I go to him with the evidence and make you get locked up in here?" she asked. She was sure that sitting in the cell with nothing but thoughts in his mind had made him overthink and, in some way, figure out what was going on but she had to stay calm and assure him that nothing was wrong, especially from her end. "Are you just a pawn in t
Lies Behind Bars: The Hidden Life CELL
Gavin felt agitated in the cell; it was as if something was off with the situation. Why would Kevin suddenly want to put him in jail? Something must have triggered him to do that. Suddenly it began to make sense to him that he was getting played by the Carson's. He knew in that instant that all of this was to put him in jail. They could have tucked him away a long time ago but the fear, especially from Lila, had been what he would do to their son. He could not do anything to harm his son but he would rather be safe so he used his life as a threat to her and surely enough, she fell for it because she was the type who fell for things like that so easily. He had asked Lila if she was going to send a lawyer and she told him that she would but now he knew that she would send him the worst, the kind that would make him end up in jail for a long time. He racked his mind trying to figure out who he would call to help him out but no one came to mind. He realised that he was all alone; they
Lies Behind Bars: The Hidden Life WOMAN
Damien held her face with a smile on his face as he pulled her closer. She had never seen him like this and she very much liked this version of him. She held his face too, striking her finger over his face. He kissed her with so much passion that she felt heat even in places she was not supposed to. She wondered how she made him feel as well. Was he getting tortured by him? "Want to get out of here?" he murmured again over her lips. She wondered how her mind was able to place what he meant."I want to but Jason is up there and he would be searching for me first thing in the morning as soon as he woke up," Lila replied. She was surprised at how much willpower she had grown for herself over the year. It was kind of great because she knew that if she was the same person from three years ago, she would have gone with him. He frowned because he did not like her answer. "Moreover, it is our day one and we have such a long time to go so why don't we take it slow and easy?" She asked, rubbi
Lies Behind Bars: The Hidden Life KISSES AND PROMISES
Damien was shocked but he did not lean away; he held the side of her face and took control almost immediately. Lila snapped back to her senses and wanted to pull away but Damien did not seem like he was that interested in pulling away. Even though her brain was telling her how bad this was for reasons she could not tell, her heart was thanking her. It was as if someone rubbed an ointment onto her skin. It was so soothing that she wanted to bask in the feeling forever. She could feel the eyes of the security judging her but at that moment she could care less. She melted back into the kiss and wrapped her hand over his neck. She wanted to draw closer to him but the centre console between them was making it harder for her. She was thinking of climbing onto his lap but she was already giving the man outside a show; it would be better if she just behaved properly.After a while, Damien pulled away breathlessly; she tried to look at her eyes but she was not sure what she was seeing. His e
Lies Behind Bars: The Hidden Life TOUCHED
Lila stared ahead of her into the dark outside as his image became sharper in her eyes. She wanted to speak, but her mind was not answering as it should. She heard him saying something, but she could not string together the words to make a simple statement. "Lila, are you listening to me?" he said when he waited for her response, and she responded with silence. "Hmm?" She jerked back to reality when she heard her name. For some reason, his actions touched her greatly. It was as if someone finally did for her what no other person could. "I said..." he trailed off when he saw her turn and walk away. He was a bit startled and wondered why she was acting that way. "Lila? Where are you going?" he asked but her puffing was the only thing that responded. He knew that she was coming out and it was obvious she did not hear anything he said earlier because he told her that he just wanted to make sure she was okay and nothing more. The door opened and Lila crept out; she walked to the gate an
