Liam said nothing.
He genuinely didn't care.
Nord looked at Liam with dark eyes and a malicious grin.
…But Liam didn't.
Instead, he ran a hand through his hair, flashing the crystal ribbon on his wrist.
Nord grimaced, since he only had a ruby ribbon.
Valerie gave Nord and Rin a dead-eyed look.
All the joy on her face was gone, replaced with chilling malice.
'A loyal hound,' Liam thought. 'How nice.'
A second later, Liam turned around… and just left!
Just like that!
Nord looked a bit dumbfounded… but he frowned heavily a second later.
He was being ignored!
And Liam's expression didn't change.
Rin chuckled to herself, then made her way to the peak floors, too.
Besides them, and a few maids, the tunnel leading to the upper floors was empty.
This was where the real 'Important People Convention' was!
The crystal ribbons!
