Bark glanced at Ashley and said, "I simply can't stand the way you used to become what they call a faux Beast Tamer. I'm now very doubtful whether the danger Mr. Krell found himself in was also your arrangement."
Ashley's smile faded slightly.
"You think too highly of me. I'm just an ordinary person. Mr. Krell is a noble Beast Tamer, what could I possibly do to him?"
Just then, the door opened, and the black maid who had left earlier appeared at the door:
"Ashley, Mr. Krell is looking for you."
...
Inside the opulent room.
"Miss Qiao, this is Ashley that you were looking for," the butler Krell said respectfully.
Qiao Sang sized up the chestnut-haired woman in front of her and turned her head, saying:
"You can go out first. I have something to discuss with her alone."
Krell stepped back and gently closed the door.
"Miss, did you need something from me?" Ashley asked respectfully.
