Chasing His Kickass Luna Back novel Chapter 379

Abby

“I mean your cheating, of course.”

Gianna’s words cut through the air, leaving me feeling as though I’ve just been splashed with acid. It’s clear that her words were intended to cut deep, and all the while, Ethan just sits there beside her with a puzzled expression on his face.

My eyes are wide as I stammer out a response. “Ex… Excuse me?” I murmur.

An evil smirk tightens her face. “You heard me,” she says, her tone laced with pure and unadulterated venom. “You’re a cheater. I can’t even believe you’re sitting here right now, as if you did nothing wrong.”

Karl and I exchange a wary glance. It’s clear that he’s just as astonished as I am. My eyes slide over to Ethan, though, and his face betrays nothing.

I can’t tell what’s on his mind; I knew that Gianna must have spread some lies, manipulated reality while he was in his coma, and it seems to me that it somehow worked. But I can’t feel bad for him, not when he’s sitting here silently while his new girlfriend tries to start a fight at the dinner table.

“Well?” Gianna says with a chuckle, still swirling her drink around in her glass. She takes a slow, calculated sip, her eyes never leaving mine over the rim of the glass. “Nothing to say, Abby?”

I don’t know what to say. I thought that we were all on the same page here; that Gianna set up that whole scheme to make it appear as though I had cheated, all for her own gain. And yet, here she is, acting as though I did do it all along.

Before I can muster a reply, Karl suddenly intervenes.
