Chapter 67

If there was one grave mistake, Lorelei made that day. It was eating until she dropped. She was having a hard time keeping her back straight while walking because she ate too much. And now, she's like some kind of pregnant hunchback pacing the streets.

"Make haste, slowpoke," Jace yelled from a few meters away from her. 

Just earlier, he was acting like a gentleman, but now, he has returned to his normal state. Isn't there more of a need for him to lend her a hand now compared to earlier? Lorelei was struggling more to walk this time anyway.

"Don't order me around, Jacey! Try putting yourself in my shoes, and let's see whether you can walk faster than I do!" she shot back, catching her breath right after.
