Question for Spanish-English bilingual people:
How can I translate this "As if!" into Spanish in the following sentence:
"He acted like he didn't care at all, but I saw him looking back – as if!"
Google and ChatGPT give unnatural translations.

I wonder go with 'como si fuera así´ or ´como si fuera nada´. The word-for-word translation might not work well sometimes—just my 2 cents.

Te aconsejo ver la pelicula ''Clueless'' con Alicia Silverstone que demuestra el contexto donde nacio, y se usa, esa frase
