Gerard stood outside the Sky Tower, the noon sunlight beating down on his face, while the surrounding people kept casting strange gazes at him, causing him a moment of bewilderment.
Then he looked towards a nearby spot where Ju was squatting, head buried, apparently busy with something unknown.
Seemingly feeling something, Ju also lifted her head, her gaze meeting Gerard's, but neither of them spoke.
Gerard stood for quite a while before he walked up to Ju and asked in a low voice, "Shall we go back?"
Ju nodded, then stood up, the sound of metal clinking coming from within her clothing.
Gerard lowered his head to look at her for a moment, and Ju buried her head even lower, then said softly, "Someone's been pestering me, I didn't get a chance to throw it away."
Ju had always wanted to take revenge on Lyra.
Of course, she couldn't miss the public meeting today, but what a pity that before she could even begin to act, she was already marked by Oliver.
