Yusen's brow furrowed slightly at the Duke's words.
He saw the young female's gaze return to the video, her attention stolen away just like that.
The Mermaid's heart grew heavy.
Even the warmth of her fingers was slowly leaving his.
He looked down at his own empty hand, his eyes dimming.
Yu Zhizhi's breath hitched.
Little Amon…
Hearing that the little snake she missed so dearly was awake, she couldn't help but look forward to getting a good look at him.
"I…"
Yu Zhizhi hesitated for a moment, then turned to look at Yusen. "I want to stay here a little longer, okay?"
'She chose the Duke.'
Yusen lowered his gaze, his icy blue eyes hidden in shadow, unreadable and unfathomable.
His expression instantly fell. Without a word, he stood up and left. His lonely figure disappeared around the bend of the staircase.
On the video.
