Was this a setup to murder her?
That was Ruth Dawn's first reaction, that Young Master Kent was plotting to kill her.
But on second thought, something didn't seem right.
Up until then, Ruth had only heard of Kent Dawn's reputation but had never met him in person.
There wasn't any animosity between her and Kent, so why would he unreasonably target her?
There was no reason!
Ruth smiled faintly and began to speak amidst the cold gazes of Greatgranny Dawn, Rose Dawn, and Florence Dawn, "Young Master Kent, you are overly praising me."
"What merit or talent do I possess to bear the banner of the Capital City's Dawn Sect?"
"I am still young and lack experience, I still need further honing."
"The burden of the Dawn Sect's enormous assets in Capital City isn't something I can shoulder alone."
"Humph!"
Greatgranny Dawn huffed coldly, as if to say, good, she knows her place.
Both Florence and Rose looked displeased, their gazes towards Ruth brimming with hostility.
