There is a line written/ spoken by Deanna Wadsworth – "Never lie to someone who trusts you, and never trust someone who lies to you."
Lying is the worst thing you could do to someone who trusts you, and trusting a person who lies to you is the worst thing you could do to yourself.
So, when Alice heard Alex's words, her mood instantly drained.
"Why…." Alice was about to ask something, but she stopped when she saw Alex looking at her with a frown on his face.
"When did I lie?" Alex asked with a frown.
A guy who hates lying would never like someone accusing him of lying, and Alex was just that type of guy.
"Huh?" Alice looked at Alex as her frown deepened.
'Does he want to deny it as well?'
"Tell me."
Alex demanded as if he could tell what Alice was thinking.
Alice's body jerked a bit as she heard Alex's voice.
"…. You said that you didn't have any stealing ability," Alice replied in a low voice.
