Chasing His Kickass Luna Back novel Chapter 443

Chloe doesn’t mince words. Her tone is a bit harsh, although not necessarily in a mean way. I can tell she’s concerned, which I of course expected.

I hesitate for a moment, my mind racing for an explanation that won’t cause even more concern. “I’m staying with Karl,” I finally admit. “I needed to leave the city.”

Leah’s brow furrows. “Why?” she asks. “Is everything okay?”

I let out a sigh, realizing that there’s no point in hiding the truth any longer. “The restaurant case escalated,” I admit. “The detective working the case said that I should probably go somewhere that’s a bit safer. Away from the press and angry citizens, you know?”

I bite my lip, feeling their disappointment emanating through the screen. “I didn’t know how to tell you,” I confess. “I thought it would only be for a few days, but now it might be longer.”

“Well, as long as you’re safe,” Leah says slowly, even though I can tell she’s restraining some of her concern.

But Chloe’s frustration is evident. “Abby, have you been sleeping with him this whole time?”
