Love, Lies And Hidden Truths Secrets And Lies
“Are you really this stupid?” Margaret's voice thundered through the room. “ How could you keep this from me, Aysel? The man who was chosen for you wants to marry Jeri instead. And you thought I did not deserve to know?” Margaret's face turned beet red as she stood in the living room, her eyes blazing with rage. Aysel cowered in front of her, her eyes wide in fear. “I… I didn't want to hurt you, Mother. I knew you wanted me to marry him…” Aysel trembled, and her voice was barely audible. “You believe you are protecting me by keeping secrets? You are just as dishonest as your father!” Aysel flinched as her mother's words made her eyes well up with tears. “You are just like Jeri,” Margaret's rage grew even more intense." You always get what you want, but I end up with nothing! Aysel, you are going to regret not telling me the truth. Mark my words!" There was an obvious sense of tension in the room, a tension born of unspoken words and unresolved emotions. Aysel burst into tears a
Love, Lies And Hidden Truths The Truth About Jeri's Pregnancy
“What are you talking about, Clara?” Margaret curiously inquired, anticipating her sister's response.Margaret chuckled, and crossed her legs as she displayed an evil smile.“Well,” she sighed and rested her back against the couch. “ I once invited her to your husband's former friend, Mr. Adrian, who was celebrating his birthday in a certain hotel. If I could remember, your husband couldn't attend the birthday for a reason best known to him."However, before the birthday, I made a deal with a certain billionaire old man who required a one-night stand with a virgin. He was willing to pay any amount of money just for that, and I was determined to get it."Since I was certain that Jeri was a virgin, I had to persuade her to come over and have some fun with me. I bought her expensive clothes for the birthday celebration…”“Oh, I guess those were the clothes my mom took from her and gave to me,” Aysel confessed.“Obviously,” Margaret
Love, Lies And Hidden Truths A Friendship Turned Deadly
As agreed between the three women, Clara invited Darien's Mom over, ready to carry out her plan. "I apologize, Lucinda. I had to leave the house quickly to take care of something that came up. Perhaps I should reserve a hotel room so we can meet there. “As I previously stated, we are having an important conversation, and I would prefer that no one hear about it. So, I believe that discussing it in a hotel room would be safer. What is your opinion?” Clara's voice echoed from the phone. “Well,” Mrs. Lucinda sighed."I am fine with meeting you wherever you choose. I do not mind as long as it benefits me. Simply send me the address, and I will be there as soon as possible." “Alright,” Clara nodded and hung up the call. Unbeknownst to Mrs. Lucinda, her best friend, was planning to set her up. A set-up that will turn her life around for bad. She did not think much of Clara's decision to meet in a hotel. She was convinced that her friend would never do anything to hurt her. Unfortunat
Love, Lies And Hidden Truths A Marriage On The Brink
“Huh?” Clara gasped, her mouth widened in shock.“ You mean, your son spent two years with his grandfather, unaware of the relationship between them?”“Exactly,” Mrs. Lucinda concurred with her. " I am still wondering why the old man failed to tell Darien that he was his grandson. Or does he intend to reveal it remarkably?"“What exactly are you saying, Lucinda? Have you forgotten that your father-in-law left the house even before you got married to your husband? How could he have noticed that Darien is his grandson?”“That’s not difficult to know, Clara. I am certain that Darien told him everything about himself before welcoming him into his home." Silence reigned between the two women as they gaze at each other, countless questions pacing up and down in their minds.“I’m scared, Clara,” Mrs. Lucinda began.“You fear what exactly?” Clara asked with a frown face."You know this old man was opposed to his son's decision t
Love, Lies And Hidden Truths Coworkers, Conflict, And Conspiracy.
"You have been here for more than a week, and I still have not seen what you have done to help the company grow," hissed Larissa, the lady with whom Jeri switches shifts." From the moment you were introduced to us, I knew you had nothing to contribute to the growth of this company. "To make matters worse, they hired you as a market researcher, which is the same position I hold. I cannot recall telling the CEO that I want to work part-time. I should be the only one in charge of this position, not the two of us…” “Come on, Larissa,” Jeri finally cut into her words."When I was hired at this company, you welcomed me like a sister. Why have you suddenly changed? Have I done anything wrong to warrant those hurtful words?" "Yes, Jeri," Larissa replied, clenching her jaw and lowering her gaze. "I welcomed you like a sister because I assumed you were a hard worker, not realizing you were just a lazy piece of trash." "I have done my best in this job, Larissa. So I am not going to let you in

Love, Lies And Hidden Truths A Family In Turmoil
"Why would I lie to you, Mr. Ethan? I was the one who invited her to the hotel to discuss some important issues. And because she was unfamiliar with the hotel, I begged the hotel CEO, with whom they had accidentally crossed paths, to bring her to her room. That is all that occurred—not what you are imagining.” Seated next to her friend on the same couch, Clara gave an explanation. "Are you considering me a fool? Do you really think I would fall for such a sleazy lie? Oh, so you are supporting her because you two are friends? I get it now.” Mr. Ethan roared, clenching his fist furiously as he sat opposite them. Unfortunately, before Clara arrived at Mr. Ethan's mansion, despite her friend's plea to come save her marriage, the stranger who sent Mr. Ethan a video of his wife cheating had texted him.

The next day, Darien found himself in Dr. Emiliano's small house, eager to find answers to many questions that no one could answer.

Darien spoke with the elderly man, his elbow resting on his thigh and his head resting on his fist. "You abandoned me for so long after you achieved your goal. And now you have returned to request something from me? Isn't that an indication of your lack of wisdom?" The elderly man snarled. A wave of guilt washed over Darien, prompting him to consider a few things. "Forgive me, grandfather," Darien nervously apologized. "I am not your grandfather, Darien," Dr. Emiliano objected. "Come on, addressing you as my grandfather does not imply we are related. It is just a show of respect," Darien explained, feeling uneasy. Dr. Emiliano remained silent as he observed Darien, who intended to bombard him with endless questions. “So, what do

Love, Lies And Hidden Truths Jeri's Life on the Line

Darien demanded out of fear.The figure revealed a woman with piercing green eyes and raven-black hair."I'm Maya," she said.

Love, Lies And Hidden Truths Forgiveness and Fear
Darien began to pace around in the garden, wondering what to do. It was as if his head were going to explode for trying so hard to figure out what to do next.“I need to act fast.

Not now," Darien said to himself with determination.At last, he retreated to the living room after giving it much thought.As he re-entered the mansion, he heard his grandfather speaking."Jeri, dear," Dr. Williams said, his voice soft, "I know my family has wronged you. But Darien has changed. He's trying to make amends. And as his grandfather, I will beg you on his behalf to please forgive him even though he deserves to face the consequences of his actions. He was still a kid that time when it happened and probably his father was afraid to lose his son that was why they kept it hidden. Please have mercy on them, Jeri."As Dr. Williams' words pierced into her ears Jeri's gaze wavered. Her plan was to get Darien and his father arrested, and not to forgive them. Now

"Huh?” Jeri gasped, her eyes narrowed as she tried to digest the whole thing."So you were the one who ruined my life from day one?" Jeri's eyes blazed as she spoke to Darien.

As if that weren't enough he ruined her life by impregnating her."Jeri, I…" Darien continued, but Jeri cut him off."Shut up!

Darien's face paled, his eyes filling with a mix of shock and guilt. At last, Freya exposed the secret they have been hiding for decades.Mr. Ethan's eyes widened in astonishment, wondering what Jeri was talking about.

"Oh please, don't pretend as if you can't recall how your son murdered my mother in your office many years ago,” she growled in response, her fist tightened.Just after Jeri said that, it dawned on him that the woman was indeed Jeri's mother who had no one to look for her after her death.Mr. Ethan averted his gaze away from Jeri to Darien.

“What?" Darien gasped, his eyes shifting from the old man to his father. “ What did I just hear you call him, father?" “You heard him well, Darien," Dr. Williams cut in, causing Darien to avert his gaze away from his father to Dr. Williams.“Dr. Williams,” Darien called, still trying to comprehend what was happening. " I have been searching for you. You were nowhere to be found a few months after Jeri had left this city. I thought she came back and took you away demanding that you saved her life. I was astonished when she came to my office asking me about you. Where have you been all this while? And why is my father addressing you like that?”"How many times do you need to be told that Dr. Williams is your grandfather?” Jeri snapped."Zip your mouth, Jeri. I wasn't talking to you,” Darien countered, his brows drawn together.“What Jeri said is nothing but the truth, Darien," Dr. Williams responded, walking past Darien, his hands tucked behind him.“Huh?” Darien gasped.

Love, Lies And Hidden Truths The Storms Arrives
“What's wrong, son?" Mrs. Lucinda asked as she sat beside her son on the couch.Darien, whose face was clouded with anger, hastily stood up, avoiding his mother's touch.“Tell me, is it true?" Darien asked, his arms folded above his chest, and his back against his mother's gaze.Mrs. Lucinda was confused as she couldn't comprehend what her son was talking about.“What exactly are you talking about, son?" Mrs. Lucinda stood up and asked with skepticism.Darien turned around and faced his mother.
