Chapter 116: Betrayed By Her Best Friend
"Impossible, Kian. Abigail couldn’t possibly do that..." Lana still struggles to believe that Abigail could behave in such a way—beating someone out of jealousy. Besides, she had never seen Abigail show any interest in Kian.
"Well, she claims that I sexually harassed her even when I did not do that. That’s why she beat me up. She’s a delusional and violent person." Kian said with another deep, long sigh.
"That woman is so delusional. How could I sexually harass her when you have fulfilled my need, Lana? My friendly gestures must’ve been misunderstood." He added.
"What!? How is that possible?" Lana frowned, increasingly confused by what she was hearing. "Kian! Tell me the truth! Did you actually harass her? Is that why she attacked you? That she defended herself?"
"Damn it, Lana! You’ve known me for so many years, and you still question that?"
Kian turned his gaze away from her, his disappointment evident in his expression.
Without looking at her, he continued, "How could I do something like that to her when we have a special relationship?"
Kian took another deep breath, and Lana felt a wave of panic as she saw the disappointment in his eyes.
"Kian, please, look at me..." Lana pleaded, desperate for him to know that she trusted him. "I trust you will never do that to her; you are the gentleman I have ever met. But, I don’t know, I feel weird Abigail beat you because of jealousy."
Abigail, who had just heard the lie that Kian had spread, felt a surge of anger and wanted to confront him right then and there. How could he tell lies with such innocent expressions? How shameless!
Kian then directed his attention back to Lana, smiling as he said, "Lana if you still doubt me, you can ask her." He gestured for Lana to look behind him.
