I Met the Male Lead in Prison: Chapter 21 Recap

In the previous chapter of I Met the Male Lead in Prison, Lyana rushes to her cell after an encounter with Lichdorian, who brazenly makes Lyana’s heart race. Lyana finds herself feeling hot and gulps cold water to cool herself down. She remembers Lichdorian being dragged away by the officers since he had passed out. Lyana snaps out of her thoughts when she spots a letter her brother had sent her. The letter was quite curt, and Lyana couldn’t help but assume that her brother was mad because of her questions.

Lyana had written to her brother, asking him about her family and background. It was perhaps a touchy subject, and Lyana’s brother seemed upset about it. Lyana regrets being so tactless in her inquiries. The missing pieces are quite jarring to Lyana as she tries to make sense of it but falls asleep, thinking of responding to the letter the next day. As always, Lyana completely forgot about it when she woke up. The next morning, Lyana goes to talk to Lichdorian but gets nowhere since he is in his beast form.

Lyana tries to make him switch personalities, but nothing works. She notices the lack of injuries on his body and thinks about the time he was beaten badly. Lichdorian often got abused by guards and his family, but he never complained about it or found it wrong. For him, the abuse was necessary to keep him in control. Later, Lyana finds herself with the General Manager, who tries to spoil her with delicacies. Lyana finds it odd that the General Manager would go so far as to treat her well.
