Chapter 32: The sisterly visit

  Jace POV

  Earlier, I was supposed to go to work, but it turned out that the day did not go as expected. The moment I got up from bed, I did not feel as good as I used to. I fell right back into the bed. The sickness just came suddenly. After a while, the doctor I had called also came to examine me as I felt too weak to go to the hospital myself. He assured me that everything was alright with me.

  He said I was experiencing low blood sugar (hypoglycemia). I had never had that before. He said the treatment consisted of diet modifications. He asked me to consume high-sugar foods or drinks, such as orange juice or regular fizzy drinks, to treat this condition. Alternatively, he said medication could be used to raise blood sugar levels.

  I was expecting Brielle's call all day, even if it was to talk about something that went on at the office, but it never came through. I did not want to call her either, but it had already been twenty-four hours since we spoke last.
