Their life turned upside down suddenly and as a single parent it was hard for her to live in China. So they moved to California, US. There she found her best friends Olivia and Eliana. Wyatt, a common friend, loved Ruby so he proposed to her. Accepted it as she loved him too.Their love for each other was an inseparable one. It was an unfortunate incident which was written in her destiny. She bumped into a guy named Aaron in the cafeteria. Aaron had been a casanova, heart throb of the college pecked on her cheek as an apology. Ruby’s temperament rose at his daring, so she slapped and insulted him publicly. Later, the same guy was arranged as her husband. Aaron, who had been holding the grudge against her, agreed as soon as he came to know who the bride was. Now the question arises here, What will happen to Ruby and Wyatt? Will it become a love triangle? Will this tug of war lead to a fateful end or not? Will they fall in love or marry each other to continue the revenge? Who will confess their feelings to the other party first or not? To find out more, check out my work, “The Lies Of The Heart”!
Chapter 1 Introduction
Ruby was on her bed sleeping peacefully when her younger sister named Hazel entered. Hazel moved closer to her then she tapped her but she didn't answer so she shouted into her ear. "Hazel" Ruby groaned. "Sorry, sis… I did that because you don't want to answer me" Hazel said and chuckled. Ruby got down from the bed then she checked the time when she saw what the time was, she screamed. "You are already late… Wyatt, would have been waiting for you" Hazel said then Ruby glared at her. "Don't shout… you know Mom must not find out" Ruby said, Hazel nodded her head.
"Can you please leave me my room now, I want to take my bath" Ruby said, gazing at Hazel. "Okay, I will be waiting for you at the dinning" Hazel said and Ruby nodded her head. "Love you, sis" Hazel said and left. "I need to be fast, Wyatt would have been waiting for me" Ruby said, entering the bathroom. An hour later, she was taking her bath in the toilet when her mind drifted to Wyatt. "I need to be fast" Ruby thought. She came out of the toilet. She glanced at the mirror then she smiled at herself, she got dressed. When she was done, she left the room. ★★★★★ Hazel and Mrs Ava were eating at the dining when Ruby climbed the stairs down. "Good morning, mom" Ruby said with a smile. Mrs Ava glared at her. "Ruby, I have told you several times to stop waking up late" Mrs Ava snapped. "I'm sorry, mom" Ruby said but Mrs Ava glared at her. "Sis, come and sit… your food is getting cold" Hazel said with a smile. "Okay, sis" Ruby said and went to sit down. "I am going to work now… you girls should take care of yourself and don't come home late from school, bye" Mrs Ava said as she stood up from her seat. "Okay, mom… bye" Ruby said with a smile. "I love you, girls" Mrs Ava said then she left. "Sis, eat fast… we are getting late" Hazel said then she nodded her head. "Hazel, how is Owen?" Ruby said, chewing the food in her mouth. "We are not together again, sis… we broke up last week" Hazel said. "Huh" Ruby choked. "He is a playboy… I hate him" Hazel said, carrying her backpack. "Hmm" Ruby hummed. "Are you done?" Hazel asked, gazing at her. "Yes" Ruby said and carried her bag pack, then they left the Mansion. ★★★★★★ Wyatt was at the front of the gate waiting for Ruby when Olivia and Eliana showed up then he smiled at them. "You are waiting for Ruby right" Olivia said then Wyatt nodded his head. "Awwn, so romantic… I wish I had a boyfriend like you" Eliana said with a smile. Wyatt was about to say something when a car drove in. "I think it is Ruby and her sister" Olivia said then they walked towards where the car is. Ruby and Hazel got down from the car. "Ruby" Olivia and Eliana called with a smile. They hugged her. "Oh, nobody hugged me" Hazel said and faked a frown. "Sorry, Hazel" Eliana said then they hugged her.
