Lando's POV

Rae brought Jace to my room, asked if I could watch him for a week or so, because she had to go back to London.

Asked her why she needed to go back, but she said it was none of my business anymore.

Fair enough, it wasn't.

But I could see something was wrong, but she didn't want to tell me.

I hated that, because I wanted to help her, wish I could.

So of course I agreed to take care of Jace.

I love him, I would do everything for him, would run through fire for him.

But lately, I started overthinking things. Rae always claimed Jace was mine, that I was his dad.
And I believed her, without any doubt.

Until now.

She stopped drinking when she was dating Mason, and she got pregnant, when we weren't dating for very long.

Had sex only once or twice.

I never questioned it, I just thought I had fast sperm or something.

I never doubted her, never doubted that Jace was mine because I was so happy, I was blinded by her love.

But what if she was pregnant when she was dating Mason? What if Jace wasn't mine? What if he was Mason's?

Or what if she had sex with Max during the time we broke up? I honestly don't know what she did during that time.

I don't think I would ever get over that.

My heart would break.

I know it wasn't a reason to cheat on her, it definitely wasn't.

"Mate! Are we going out?" Max Fewtrell yelled as he walked in my hotel room.

"Don't yell" I looked at him. "Jace is asleep"

"Oh I didn't know that you had him tonight" he lowered his voice. "So I guess we aren't going out"

We definitely weren't. I would leave early in the morning anyways. We were going to Vegas tomorrow, for the next race.

Vegas was always a special place to me, it's where I met Rae, married her as well.

So it felt weird to be there without her. Hopefully she would be able to fly back on time.

I missed her already.

"Okay, be honest now mate, why on earth did you cheat on Rae? With Violet of all people?" Max asked as he sat down on the couch.

Mclaren didn't stay in the Hilton hotel anymore and I missed it.
Hilton became a part of me, felt like home.

"Do you think Jace looks like me?" I asked, sitting next to him.

"Uh-what do you mean?" Max asked. "I mean-yeah?"

"I mean, do you think he's mine?"

He frowned. "Jace is yours, why are you doubting that?"

I shrugged. "He could be Mason's or Max's"

He looked at me for a while. In silence.

And then he started laughing. "Are you completely insane?"

Well no, it made sense in my head.

"So you cheated on her because you think Jace isn't yours? You think she wasn't honest with you?"

I nodded. "Exactly"

"C'mon mate, Jace is a copy of you, he acts the same, looks like you and besides, why would Rae lie about that?"

I shrugged again. "Because she thought I would dump her if she would admit he's not mine?"

"And would you? What if Jace isn't yours?"

Good question.

I would be completely heartbroken, that's for sure.

He has my last name, he calls me daddy, I would never get over it.

I didn't answer, which made him sigh. "Just talk to her, ask her, maybe ask proof?"

I nodded.

But what if the answer would completely break me?
