Bab 173: 173. Second male lead

However, when Jace saw Paige and Lance come home at night, after everyone was worried about their whereabouts, only to get a call from the general, he wasn't sure anymore of his decision to get the psychologist to work on him.

Especially seeing the slap mark on Paige's face. That it was from Lance was never a possibility, although his behavior was also strange.

Jace had followed Paige when she passed Lance up. He hadn't heard much through the closed door, and smart as he was, he hid immediately and sat on the staircase.

After Paige went back to her own room, Jace went inside the study, only to find Lance holding his head, looking pale and sweaty.

"What happened?" Jace wasn't expecting this kind of picture,

"Go away...." Lance mumbled.

"Should I call a doctor?" Jace asked, already halfway out of the door.

"Come back." Lance hissed, trying to straighten up, but not being able to.
