"Mind your own business!"
Jayce glanced at Nathan Thorne.
"You should worry about yourself. Who knows, Dr. Hayes might decide to use you as a lab rat and cut you up at any moment!"
Nathan Thorne immediately wrapped his arms around himself. "No way! Dr. Hayes said he wouldn't—"
Jayce gave him a knowing look. "You actually believe what Dr. Hayes says? How can you trust a mad scientist?"
Nathan Thorne was speechless. "..."
Nathan Thorne was completely stunned.
"Can I leave now? This base of yours is way too dangerous! I want to go home! I want to go home right now!"
Jayce, who had just been putting on a serious act, burst out laughing. "You actually fell for that? You're so..."
Nathan Thorne was bewildered. "??? You were lying to me?"
"What do you think?" Jayce was laughing so hard he was almost crying. "How did I never notice you had such a naive side!"
Without a second thought, Nathan Thorne lunged at Jayce.
