Not yet had time to get any information, Eva tried to remember what she had not told Ashley.
"There's a client who once offered me a cure."
Uh, Mandy? I don't know what her name is in Ashelia's world. But if offered to Eva, it's probably some kind of Ecstasy. Then, people who offer the drug must also know how to get it.
"I intend to get him to get me information." Eva realized the same thing.
"But if he was just a small pawn, or even just a user, it wouldn't seem so useful." Add it with a little disappointment.
It's true, if they find out through the person. But look at the big picture. That man is only the door to penetrate Far's fortress. He does not need to have confidential information that is difficult to get, he just needs to have a connection with his bookie.
Do not use gatekeepers as sources of information. Use them to get permission to enter.
Eva, who focused only on information about Far's relationship with the Midgrafves, never predicted the long-distance route.
Focusing too much on one point can make you miss things.
Hearing Ashley's explanation of the importance of the client and how to use it, Eva's spirit returned.
He had a meeting with Ashley. With the schedule coming every month on a certain date, Eva asked Ashley to come on that date at midnight.
Then, as if supported by fate, the day came much faster. Precisely just a few hours away. Which means, tomorrow.
...****************...
The next night in the same room. A woman sits with her legs straightened on a long sofa. Wearing transparent clothes that were able to show his body, he relaxed while sucking his pipe.
In front of her, a man sat with her because Eva said there was someone who wanted to see the man. The woman also mentioned that the person who wanted to meet her was interested in illegal drugs.
Luckily, the man did not mind and was willing to wait. If not, maybe Eva has to work extra to buy time until Ashley comes.
"Are you sure you don't want to try that, too?" Ask the man to Eva.
Smiling kindly, the woman then politely declined.
"No, thanks. My work isn't done."
Shortly after, there was a sound of male steps from outside. Leaving the door open, Eva accidentally shows that Ashley can enter at any time.
The main character who they had been waiting for from behind the wall with two subordinates. In contrast to Ashley who entered the room casually, the two subordinates were actually shocked and awkwardly half-dead.
Seeing the clothes worn by Eva, Alais immediately turned her body. But realizing the presence of 'strangers' there, he turned back because he felt he had to watch over the man. His eyes were locked on the man there, not only wanting to watch but also not daring to look the other way.
Bellena who was also a woman still felt awkward and did not dare to look at Eva. After closing the door on Ashley's orders, he looked forward at the wall far across.
The owner of the room was indeed used to wearing open clothes, but this time it was more like 'not dressed'. Things that make both subordinates Ashley misbehaved because they feel they should not see it.
Laughing at the response of Alais and Bellena, Eva then deliberately walked over to Ashley, making them both unable to look forward and turned to the side.
"I didn't think I'd meet a famous person." Welcome the man who had been waiting for Ashley's arrival.
Not standing or showing any formality, the man was still sitting there with full arrogance.
Raising her left eyebrow with a faint smile, Ashley responded to the man's words with a friendly reply.
Stretching out both his hands then leaning against the chair, the man then replied,
"Yes. Who now doesn't know Miss Midgraff?"
Sitting in the chair that Eva had previously occupied, the woman immediately crossed her legs, acting like the owner of the room. Besides, Eva, stop by Ashley while smoking her cigarette pipe. Ashley's wiggling is too strong to be an 'incomer'.
Can the man understand now, why the little woman had forbidden him to sit in the chair to accompany Eva. Because the chair already has an owner.
Watching Ashley while stroking her chin using her index finger, the man was clearly judging the appearance of the woman before him. From the face, clothes, posture, to the aura that emanated. The disrespectful act that made Alais almost interrupt the conversation that had not even begun.
"I don't know about the other rumors, but the one who said you were as beautiful as a Goddess, probably has never seen a Goddess."
Hearing the condescending words, Alais and Eva spontaneously gave him a defiant look. But a split second later, their expressions immediately changed upon hearing the continuation of the sentence.
"You're so much prettier."
With the typical smile of a seductress, the man gave the results of his judgment.
From the beginning, she was very fond of praising the beauty of Ashelia. Just the way it does deliberately make people upset first.
Unfortunately, praise will not have any effect on the woman who has already looked up to herself.
"Can we skip the chit-chat?" Ashley said with her friendly face, showing how much she was not interested in pleasantries.
"Lo's parents have good stuff."
Stunned at the response he had never received, the man then laughed, before entering into their core conversation.
"You're so impatient." He said he thought Ashley was one of the junkies, a patient who wanted to get her medication as soon as possible.
Saying he only brought a few and was about to sell the grease because he was not a bookie, Ashley interrupted the man's remarks and said he had misunderstood.
Looking at the four people in front of him in turn, the man still did not know what he had misunderstood.
But then he realized,
"Rather than make it yourself, the cave prefers to share."
not the medicine they were looking for, but the city.
Putting out words like a wise man, Ashley made bad deeds feel good.
Although he understood the intention of the woman, but the man also could not immediately tell information about the city. Ashley's followers may be able to keep a secret for her sake, but Eva is also there.
Seeing the man hesitating and then glancing towards the owner of the room, Ashley understood what the source was worried about.
"Don't worry." Said Ashley who then turned her right hand to the side.
Looking at Ashley's palm, Eva immediately placed her left cheek there with a smile. It can help convince the man that Eva is also under Ashley's control.
"No one's gonna find out."
