Chapter 30

Days have passed since that incident happened. After walking out and ranting to Amari, Lorelei immediately sent her part of the task to Jace despite knowing that it didn't reach her partner's standards. It was all or nothing and surely, Jace would prefer to accept her work rather than to start all over again. Just how thick-skinned is he to not accept it?

Anyway, Lorelei had been avoiding him too since that day. There were times when Lorelei would see him near the apartment or the university but she would always end up hiding or going in the opposite direction. It was such a hassle, really. Good thing Jace didn't notice it, or maybe he was just pretending not to.
