All Chapters of Lies Behind Bars: The Hidden Life: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

Evangeline watched Jane scramble away; she began to think under what name Lila was registered that made her act like that. She had known her before Gvain decided to do away with Lila and marry her; she knew how she clinged to Gavin without money of her own; she knew how she had to meet Gavin to give her everything that she could possibly need in life. She basically relied on him, so how could she have let up so fast that she already had a suagr daddy ready to take care of her expenses?"Oh, I see what is going on here," Evanegline said, sounding like he knew it all. She closed the gap between them and held her shoulder lightly. "You must have latched yourself to a rich man who ought membership for you." Lila had the urge to tell her off, but she held herself to avoid blowing things out of proportion. She had a godstore credit because she was using her mom's membership, and it was valid for them both. "If you get on your high horse, should we wait for the manager to get here first so

"I am so sorry, ma'am I was not aware that you came into our store; if I had known, I would have come out to attend to you by myself." "It's okay," Lila said. She did not want them to make a fuss overanythingg; she had made her point to Evangeline, so now she could relax."The present staff do not know any better." Lila could remember coming into the store with her mom when she was younger, and she could remember how members of the staff fussed over her. Her mom did buy a lot, so maybe their actions in themselves were not entirely bad, but it already made her feel self-conscious about it all."It is fine; I am fine." "How is Mrs. Carson? It's been a while since I heard from her," the manager said, trying to make small talk."Having the time of her life," Lila said a bit only because she genuinely did not know how her mother was. She was convincing herself that no news was good news and that if anything had gone wrong, they would have heard about it."How can I serve you today?" The

"Look what we got in the mail," Evangeline said, waving the card in hand in the air happily. It was one of those rare mornings when they both sat at the table and ate together. Gavin always rushed out in the morning, while Evangeline stayed in bed longer than she should. "What is it?" Gavin asked, not impressed by the paper in her hand. For all he could know, that could be their bills or a bank statement on one of her numerous credit cards. He wondered if having a crippling debt on her card was a flex for her. "Your credit card bill?" "Of course not," she said, furrowing her eyebrow as she sat down in the chair opposite him. "That is exciting, but not as exciting as this news I am about to share with you." "Gee, what could be more exciting than your wonderful debt?" He said it in a dry tone. "Keep on being stupid; I will still tell you anyway," she murmured angrily, raking out the card from the envelope, dropping the envelope to the table, and turning to him as she began to read.

"Mr. Carson, is this the way you intend to carry out your revenge on the woman who killed my daughter?" Kevin said to Amien, who stood by his desk. He had heard that Damien had been parading around with a woman, and he wanted to know who the woman was even though all of the information on her was blocked.Kevin stood up and walked to the window behind his chair; it overlooked the garden that his wife had been growing. He watched her move gently in it as she swayed with the flowers. She had begun the garden after her daughter died, and it made him sad to watch her try to put so much effort into making himself happy when they had always been a happy family without trying. He blamed himself for her death because he was such a weak father who could not save his daughter; all he knew how to do was save himself. "I could save my daughter; the least I can do to take off this burden from me is to take my revenge. I was furious when I heard from the court and they gave her such a light senten

"Lila, you look breathtaking," Arietta squealed. All day they had been fussing over her, doing her hair and makeup, and even massaging essential oils into her odyssey. She had no choice but to sit still; after all, she was the one who came up with the idea of showing herself to the world. "I do?" The makeup artist had forbidden her from checking herself in the mirror until he was done performing his magic, and now he was done. "I wish I could look this good," Arietta responded. She took the hand mirror and brought it to her. Check yourself out." "Well, who is this woman that I can barely recognize?" Lila murmured, looking at herself. The makeup made her look a bit different, but not in a bad way. "I think you look fantastic," Arietta said in a squeal. "And so do you." "Oh, please, you are just flattering me because you feel like it would make me feel better." "Of course not. You do look good, and it is important for the first stage of our plan." "Do you think it would work?" A
