"Why did you ask him to stop?" Markus asked.
"What's going on between Joel and Ruth?" Kizy asked, ignoring Markus's question.
"You are quick to catch on." Markus said with a smirk.
"So there is something right between them right? What relationship do they have?" Kizy asked.
"Why do you care though?" Markus asked curiously.
After all, Kizy wasn't one to meddle in others' business, especially someone she had met moments ago. And her tone showed that she was more interested to know about Ruth than Joel.
"Ruth. She looks like someone with a past." Kizy said, remembering her eyes.
Though Ruth appeared like a normal teen girl, Kizy could somehow see a coldness in her eyes. Plus she was interested to know how such a young girl, landed up being the brutal torturer for a dungeon owned by Markus and Evans family.
"Smart little lamb!" Markus said, genuinely praising her.
