The Luna Choosing Game by Jane Above Story novel Chapter 409

Chapter 0409

She was probably used to rubbing elbows with celebrities. But polite manners were polite manners.

I was suddenly very annoyed on Julian’s behalf.

Maybe it was time I really lean into this and give this fake relationship my all.

I leaned forward again. “Bridget?”

Bridget stopped talking to Olivia to glance at me. “Yes, Piper?”

“Did I ever tell you how great of a boyfriend Julian is?” I hadn’t because I had never told anyone because it was all lies. “He’s so attentive and exciting. We’re always doing something new.”

“That’s nice,” she said, smiling kindly. “I’m really very glad that you two found each other.”

God help Julian, she seemed so genuine, like she really was glad her old friend found someone who cared about him and vice versa.”

Olivia then pulled away Bridget’s attention again, bringing her back into their conversation.

I glanced at Julian. His jaw was clenched tightly.

The rest of the meal, he only picked at his breakfast.

Afterwards, we said goodbye to Bridget, who was still talking to Olivia and Lilliana, then started to make our exit.

Elva wanted to say hi to Susie, so we stopped there. While Elva and Susie were speaking, I looked at Julian.

“I’m sorry,” I told him.

She shook his head. “Don’t.”

The word was like ice. It startled me, being frozen out like that, by Julian of all people. He immediately noticed the look on my face and relented.

“I’m not mad at you, Piper. I appreciate you trying.” He laughed a little, though it was weak. “Honestly, you’ve been the best friend I’ve ever had.”

His words warmed me up from the inside out. I smiled at him. “You are a good friend to me, too.”
