The Girl Who Reincarnated as a Vampire Heiress-Chapter 158
Chapter 158
This allowed Hurst to feel very surprised.
He lowered his head with interest and looked at Chloe, chuckling, "My dear, you really did surprise me."
"However, a proper lady shouldn't utter foul language to a gentleman."
As he spoke, Hurst attempted to put his arm around Chloe's shoulders to lead her away.
The cheers and noises from below were incessant, but Chloe unhesitatingly shrugged him off, coldly saying, "What kind of gentleman are you?"
The cub looked at him with disdain, her eyes filled with wariness and coldness.
Having no choice, Hurst could only spread his hands in concession, saying, "Well, you really are a stubborn child."
He tactfully released his hand from Chloe's body, taking a few steps forward and making a slight bow while arching his eyebrow lightly and wantonly:
"My dear, come this way."
Chloe felt like he was acting insane.
If she kicked him into a muddy pit, would this repulsive fellow still be able to carry himself with such poise and grace?
Chloe stepped forward, while secretly resolving to make this vile wolf expose his unsightly side.
However, for now, the most important thing was to find her companions and the instructor.
With Hurst's guidance, she opened one door after another, seeing her sleeping companions in iron cages.
In the dim light, the cubs' forms appeared particularly blurred. Chloe took the keys from Hurst and opened the iron cages one by one.
Hurst even thoughtfully turned on the power switch, making the lights shine brightly.
The glaring lights quickly awakened the cubs who were immersed in slumber.
Chloe stood before Anderson, watching as he inadvertently opened his emerald green eyes tinged with bloody redness.
"Why are you glaring at me?" Chloe asked discontentedly with her arms crossed.
Hearing her voice, Anderson came to his senses.
He looked up at Chloe in a daze, only then realizing what was happening, and tentatively called out:
"...Miss?"
"It's me."
Seeing that he recognized her, Chloe raised her hand to open the closed iron door, "Come out."
As she spoke, she slightly furrowed her brow, giving an almost imperceptible glance towards a certain man behind her who habitually liked to wear a false smile, then said in a low voice:
"As for what happened earlier, I'll tell you later."
Anderson lowered his eyelids and gave a slight nod, hunching his body as he came out of the iron cage.
After coming out, Chloe immediately began checking his wounds, while Anderson himself, knowing that Chloe couldn't see, shamelessly glared at Hurst with eyes filled with malice and chilliness.
Unfortunately, Hurst didn't take the cub's threat seriously.
He spread his hands and shook his head helplessly, continuing to lead them to awaken the other cubs.
Chloe walked past him, holding Anderson's hand.
Fortunately, after being stimulated by the light, the cubs gradually woke up.
Daniel was like an untamed wolf, slamming against the iron cage repeatedly, adding many more wounds to his body from the violent impacts.
Chloe's brow furrowed tightly as soon as she saw this scene:
"Daniel, stop!"
Hearing the familiar voice, Daniel snapped out of his rage and stared blankly ahead.
"...Chloe?"
He abruptly stood up from the ground, wanting to slam against the iron cage again to escape.
But before he could act, Daniel was startled into stopping by Chloe's rebuke.
Chloe used the key to open the iron cage, saying softly, "I'll explain the rest to you later, but you come out first."
Daniel looked around, his forehead already bleeding from the excessive impact, his eyes conveying a fierceness unbecoming of his age.
He closed his eyes, his knuckles cracking:
"I'll kill him sooner or later."
"I know," Chloe said, "but you have to ensure your own safety first."
Daniel pursed his lips and looked at her, only reluctantly saying after a while, "...I understand."
...
After everyone was released from the iron cages, Hurst led them to the audience seats of the arena.
He politely took a rose from his breast pocket and handed it to Chloe:
"My dear, I'm giving you half a day to enjoy this grand spectacle. I believe you'll love it."
Chloe looked at him expressionlessly and crushed the rose, throwing it to the ground.
Seeing this, Hurst smiled helplessly, as if watching a child throwing a tantrum:
"Really, it's a difficult task to grow roses on the Barren Planet."
"My dear, you're really hard to please."
Chloe took a handkerchief from Anderson and wiped her fingers that were stained by the rose juice one by one:
"I'm hard to please? Don't bring inferior roses like these in front of me again."
"There are countless roses at the Vampire Manor with a hundred times better quality. Don't embarrass yourself in front of me."
As the words fell, Hurst's thin lips pursed slightly.
He seemed to know that staying here would only result in being scolded by Chloe, so he apologetically left this place.
Once he was gone, Chloe finally relaxed and leaned back in her chair.
The location Hurst arranged for them was at the very back, but also the highest position.
From here, they could clearly see the bloody scene below.
The sound of her companions retching could be heard around her.
Chloe's tone was calm:
"Endure it for a while. After all, the ones who might be splattered with blood down there next could very well be us."
Hearing this, silence fell around them.
After a long while, Katherine finally asked with a pale face, "Can't we refuse?"
Chloe lost all interest in her usual teasing and coldly countered:
"Do you think he would agree?"
Katherine fell silent.
Finally, a turn of events occurred in the arena, with a man covered in mud gripping a steel fork and viciously impaling a wild beast's head.
Brain matter and flesh exploded, instantly making the sandy ground even more filthy.
Daniel turned away, his face deathly pale: "So fucking disgusting."
"Will we have to go up there and fight the beasts too?"
Chloe's gaze was calm, "When it's our turn, I don't think it will be beasts."
Upon hearing this, everyone fell silent.
Beasts were too simple for them. A man with such twisted tastes as Hurst would definitely not let them off easily.
Not beasts, but hardened criminals who fought for money in the arena to survive.
Qin Huaibei trembled as he tried to reassure them, "It'll be fine, believe in yourselves."
Chloe and the others exchanged glances, and finally she took out a few candies from her pocket and handed them to her companions:
"Have a taste."
They hesitated for a moment before accepting the candies and eating them.
The sweet taste allowed them to calm down somewhat.
Daniel chewed and swallowed the candy, cursing:
"Just you wait, I'll eventually tear this whole damned arena down."
