The Girl Who Reincarnated as a Vampire Heiress

After those words fell, Chloe's expression visibly improved considerably.

At least he had a conscience, saying something she loved to hear.

Chloe weighed the packed food in her hands and curved her lips into a smile.

The others also perked up their ears and listened attentively.

Daniel looked aghast: "Oh no! Someone's trying to poach you!"

"I know," Chloe exhaled, "If they can lure him away, I'll consider it my loss."

Qin Huaibei couldn't help commenting: "You do have a sense of crisis. I even heard that woman call Anderson 'Young Master', sounds like no small fry."

Chloe remained unconcerned.

The Francis Family might be powerful, but could they outshine the royal family she belonged to? Ridiculous.

"If Anderson could be poached away so easily, the Ancestor wouldn't have arranged for him to be by Chloe's side."

Katherine spoke little, but she saw things most clearly.

"Tsk, you say that..." Daniel seemed to want to add something more, but before he could, he noticed Chloe raising her hand in a gesture for silence.

He immediately closed his mouth, not daring to say anything further.

Meanwhile, the woman continued:

"Young Master, I hope you'll reconsider. If you return, the entire Francis Family will be yours."

"The current Head is already past his prime, and you can take over the family's affairs."

It was indeed a tempting offer, but...

Anderson's voice carried a hint of impatience: "Are you done? If so, then leave. I still have things to do."

After he spoke, footsteps could be heard, as if Anderson was about to leave, unable to tolerate her further.

The woman's voice immediately grew anxious: "Wait! If the Young Master doesn't believe me, you can come to the Francis Family estate and see for yourself! We..."

Anderson didn't hear the rest as he turned the corner and ran straight into Chloe.

The little mistress' eyes carried a hint of her usual haughty smile, her gaze laden with deep meaning.

Anderson blinked, lowered his head deferentially, and said respectfully: "Little Mistress."

Then he added: "There's a strange person."

The 'strange person' he referred to soon caught up to them.

She was a very ordinary-looking woman, dressed in the common attire of a manor maid, her hair not neatly combed, with two irregular strands hanging over her forehead.

The moment she saw Chloe, all her words came to an abrupt halt.

Her expression momentarily showed bewilderment, as if she hadn't expected to encounter Chloe here.

Nevertheless, she quickly regained her composure and courteously curtsied:

"Little Mistress."

Chloe gave her an appraising look from head to toe, then spoke with piqued interest:

"If I'm not mistaken, you're here to try and poach my servant?"

The woman pursed her lips and explained, "No... it's just that the Young Master does have blood from the Francis Family."

"I'm only here to take him back."

Upon hearing this, Chloe nodded slightly, turned her head, and gently asked:

"Well, do you want to go with her?"

This question was directed at Anderson.

The woman also raised her head, looking at him hopefully.

There was not a shred of temptation in Anderson's emerald eyes as he calmly replied: "I am the Little Mistress' servant."

That one sentence was enough to express his stance.

The woman stared at him in disbelief:

"Think it over carefully! The Francis Family! If you go back, you'll be a noble young master, but here you'll forever be just a lowly servant!"

Her words carried a faint hint of pride.

Evidently, she held the Francis Family in high regard and felt a sense of self-importance from being affiliated with them.

Chloe disliked such an attitude.

How dare she be so arrogant? Here, the only one entitled to such haughtiness was Chloe herself.

With that thought, Chloe's voice turned cold: "Kneel."

What a lowly person, daring to stand while speaking to her.

So what if she was from a powerful family?

The woman's eyes widened, clearly not expecting this turn of events.

But before she could refuse, her knees had already bent of their own accord.

"Thump", she promptly knelt on the floor.

This was the absolute dominance of a higher-ranking Vampire over a lower one.

She raised her head in humiliation: "Little Mistress, I'm from the Francis..."

"Is the Francis Family so formidable?" Chloe cut her off.

Since the woman was kneeling, Chloe could now easily look down upon her:

"Perhaps I need to remind you, this is Vampire Territory, the manor of the Ancestor of the Vampire clan. Anyone living in this manor, or even in the entire Vampire Territory, must obey my commands."

Chloe's tone was disdainful: "Never mind that you're just a servant of the Francis Family, even the head of the Francis Family would have to bow before me."

"Don't get too full of yourself."

With those words, like a mountain weighing down, the woman was instantly crushed, unable to raise her head.

She clenched her fists and gritted her teeth: "But..."

"And," Chloe didn't give her a chance to interject, "this manor does not accept servants with divided loyalties. I don't care how you managed to sneak in here, but now that I've discovered you, you'll never set foot here again in this lifetime."

"Kewen!"

Chloe's voice was not loud, but when she called out that name, the wall lamps flickered twice, and Kewen appeared out of nowhere.

He nonchalantly sucked on a lollipop, his gaze cold as he looked at the woman on the floor:

"What low-ranking Vampire dares to sully our Little Mistress' eyes."

He then grabbed the woman and pulled her up, holding her aloft.

The woman still struggled, shouting in vain: "I'm from the Francis Family, you can't treat me like this!"

"I don't care what family you're from. Today, you've angered the Little Mistress, so you no longer have a place in Vampire Territory."

Saying that, Kewen slashed at the back of the woman's neck with his palm, then politely bowed to Chloe before silently leaving with the woman in tow.

Daniel rubbed his head: "Where did he come from? Like a ghost."

Qin Huaibei shrugged: "Who knows about the affairs of great families?"

Having just vented her anger, Chloe turned and put on a smile again, offering the packed food to Anderson:

"Here, take it and eat."

Anderson received it with both hands, lowering his gaze to look at it, then said softly: "Thank you."

"What are you thanking me for?" Chloe said with a warm smile, seeming quite pleased. "This isn't the first time."

She paused for a moment, then continued, "However, since the Francis Family insists on having you, you can go and check it out."

Chloe idly played with the mustard seed necklace and rain flower stone hanging from her neck as she said nonchalantly, "But you'll have to let me come along."

She was keen to see what this Francis Family was all about, daring to send someone to the Ancestor's estate.
