Chapter 31 Where Is My Knife

15 PINK LIE

Isabella used to be merely a spectator to dramas. She never imagined such a spectacle would unfold right in front of her.

The Luna that Isabella knew was strong and brave, fighting her depression alone and working hard to break free from all shackles to finally start a new life... Yet, the way the others perceived and described it was entirely different.

Recalling the conversation between those two made Isabella feel utterly disgusted.

She mentally replayed the scene, sarcastically mocking everything she'd just witnessed. While others couldn't hear her thoughts,

Standing beside her, Christopher grew more and more tense. He was practically glaring daggers at Anais.

Nothing was more infuriating than the thought of your beloved being fantasized about by other sems.

Of course, she wasn't defending Anais or questioning Isabella but found the situation incredibly absurd.

Isabella feigned surprise. "So you knew all along. I get it now. When you were arguing downstairs, pretending to doubt Luna while saying you'd ask her later, I thought you genuinely misunderstood Luna, so I tried to help clear things up. I'm glad you didn't trust that." Isabella wore a sarcastic smile. She had tactlessly exposed someone's cover without caring about making the atmosphere even more awkward.

dumbfounded, staring at Anais in disbelief.

At this moment, they recalled Anais' attitude toward Luna carlier, and their faces turned increasingly grim.

Compared to Zeke's fabrications, what left them speechless was Anais' suspicions.
