Chapter 27 Truth Chapter 27 Truth +5 Free Coins Luke slept off his hangover until the afternoon , waking up groggily . Before even opening his eyes , he absentmindedly traced the smooth skin of the woman beside him , softly murmuring , Chloe … But when he opened his eyes and saw who it was , he jumped back in shock , shoving Anna away . What are you doing here ? I sat at the nearby table , gently swinging my legs , calmly watching this spectacle unfold . When I saw this scene again , I felt calm indifference rather than fury . As sunlight poured in through the floor to ceiling windows , I noticed my body had faded slightly . I began to understand why , even in death , I remained tethered to Luke . Perhaps it was because I had spent so much of my life entangled with this man . Even after all the hurt , I couldnt easily let him go . My attachment ran too deep , binding my soul to his side against my will . But as I saw his true nature , the restless bitterness within me started to fade away . I realized that the day I truly let go of him would be the day I vanished from this world completely . On the bed , Anna put on a pitiful expression . Lukes first instinct upon seeing her was to push her away , and her sad look only deepened . Luke , when you left last night , you looked upset , so I came to check on you . But you were drunk and mistook me for Chloe . We … Luke rubbed his forehead , his face contorting in discomfort as if he regretted being with Anna . I couldnt help but find it laughable . If a man is truly drunk , he wont be able to get it up . Last night , he had been with Anna several times , each round lasting longer than the last . He seemed pretty pleased then , but now he was trying to play innocent . Anna began to sob softly . Luke , I never wanted to ruin your relationship with Chloe . But you were drunk , calling out her name over and over , and I couldnt bear to see you like that , so I … Unable to stand her tears , Luke pulled her into his arms . This isnt your fault . Its all on me . Anna rested against his chest , a faint , victorious smile playing on her hips . Luke , when Chloe comes back , you should focus on your life together . I wont interfere anymore . Anna , youre too kind . How could I not worry about you ? The two of them exchanged sweet words in bed for a while longer before Luke finally remembered the flight to Cloudville he had asked Roy to book for today . Realizing he had overslept , he angrily dialed Roys number . Why didnt you remind me ? I missed my flight because of you . Roy , who had long suspected that Luke and Annas relationship was more than friendly , saw his suspicions confirmed last night . Given the circumstances , it wasnt hard to guess what had happened between them , and he wasnt about to walk in on anything awkward . Sorry , Mr. You were pretty drunk last night , and I didnt want to disturb your rest . 1/3 Chapter 27 Truth Youre getting more useless by the day . Luke sighed . Whatever , just rebook my flight through the neighboring city . Find another route into Cloudville . +5 Free Coins Anna , who had been holding his hand , suggested , Luke , let me go with you this time . I want to apologize to Chloe in person . Maybe if she lets her anger out , shell come back . Lukes face softened , filled with both pity and affection . If Chloe were as understanding as you , she wouldnt give me such a headache . Luke , I think Chloes just furious right now , so shes using other men to get under your skin . If you two just talk , youll work things out . Anna knew exactly what to say to hit Luke where it hurt , repeatedly mentioning the other man . Lukes expression darkened , his gaze fixed on her face . Do you know something I dont ? I was worried about Chloe , so I called a friend last night , Anna began , carefully watching Lukes reaction . Turns out , he knows the guy Chloe was dancing with . He said … What did he say ? Lukes grip tightened around her wrist , squeezing so hard it left red marks . That guy is a notorious playboy , Anna continued . He uses his good looks to lure women , and hes quite skilled in that area . Many women get hooked after one night with him and willingly throw themselves into being his mistress , no matter the cost . But Im sure Chloe would never do something like that . Luke was furious , his mind replaying the scene from the video : Chloe pressed close to the man , swaying sensually as his hands slowly traced up her slender waist . Ouch , Luke ! Youre hurting me ! Sorry . Luke released her wrist and quickly got up from the bed , heading straight into the bathroom . Anna watched his back , a satisfied smile curling at her lips . That same day , the two of them boarded a flight to Longport . Longport and Cloudville were neighboring cities , but getting to Cloudville from there meant enduring a long , treacherous drive through the mountains , a journey of over ten hours . The video had rattled Luke ; pampered as he was , he still chose the difficult route just to find me immediately . I sat in the passenger seat , legs propped up , enjoying the mountain scenery while silently mocking this fool . If hed just checked my flight records , hed have known I never went to Cloudville . But instead , he trusted Anna completely , never once suspecting shed misled him from the start . But thanks to him , I was getting to see views that I never did in life . The sun sank behind the mountains , taking with it the last bit of daylight . The road was mostly empty , and without streetlights , the outside was pitch black , save for the occasional crow flying past . Luke , Im so scared . Anna took the chance to snuggle into Lukes arms . Roy driving the car couldnt bear to watch ; knowing the truth about their relationship kept him on edge every second . On the other hand , I felt strangely at ease . I even found myself wondering what Annas next move would be and what she and the person who killed me were after . Watching her toy with Luke like this gave me a twisted sense of satisfaction . 2/3 Chapter 27 Truth O O +5 Free Coins Throughout the drive , I entertained all kinds of scenarios , like the car breaking down in the middle of nowhere . But nothing happened . By early morning , we arrived in Cloudville . Luke hadnt slept all night ; his eyes were bloodshot with anger and exhaustion . The closer we got to Cloudville , the darker his expression became . Anna gave the address of the rental apartment my relatives had found for me back then , and the car headed straight for the destination . At the entrance of the alley , Luke shook off Anna and stormed ahead . If I hadnt seen the whole charade last night , I mightve believed he was genuinely worried about me . He knocked on the door , but there was no response , so he kicked it open with a violent shove . Chloe ! he yelled , his voice echoing through the space . Scattered around the living room were two pieces of mens clothing , and right by the door , a pair of worn mens slippers lay abandoned . Lukes rage boiled over as he fixed his gaze on the bedroom door . With one swift kick , he burst through it .
