Chapter 11
Sleeping with a skeleton all night long gave Chloe an enormous shock.
She was more aggressive when shooting with ion cannons in the training room.GEtt the latest novels at novelhall.com
Kewen came in from outside and was instantly startled by her aura:
"My little miss, who has made you angry again?"
Chloe ignored him. Faint black smoke emanated from the muzzle of the ion cannon.
She put it down and ran to another place to pick up a special steel knife and waved it around casually.
Kewen was not surprised at all. He stood on the side watching for a while, then said casually:
“Little miss, do you know what rumors are going around outside now?”
Chloe slammed the steel knife on the ground with a gloomy expression on her face: “How would I know?”
“Word outside is that the ancestor's cub is about to marry the eldest son of the Francis family.”
With a "clang", the steel knife fell to the floor, leaving a thumb-sized hole.
Chloe put down the knife with her eyebrows slightly furrowed: “I'm only five years old.”
Kewen spread his hands: “There are many who are betrothed as soon as they are born.”
Recalling the 10-year-old boy at the banquet that day, Chloe felt indifferent towards him and scoffed: “I'm not interested in little brats.”
Hearing this, Kewen couldn't help laughing when he looked at the milk dumpling that didn't even reach his knees.
But Chloe immediately glared at him, and Kewen didn't dare joke around.
Chloe really thought that little boy was no good. He looked so young but was already a sly old fox with his polite manner. One could tell at first glance that he had a scheming mind.
It wasn't that she was prejudiced. This was just Chloe's intuition.
Her intuition told her that the little boy was not a good person.
Besides, rumors were just rumors. Xavier would not marry her off at such a young age.
It could not be true.
However, it didn't take long for Chloe to realize the horror of this rumor.
She had just entered kindergarten when a group of people surrounded her and asked her questions about the engagement.
Chloe was extremely annoyed and said directly: “It’s not true, go away, you're blocking my way.”
The cubs certainly did not believe it.
Throughout the day, the whispers around her never stopped.
Even the little boy who had been beaten to the ground crying by her earlier ran over.
His name seemed to be Yavi. Although he was also blonde, his hair color was much darker than that of the boy from the Francis family.
As usual, Yavi held his head high, looking very arrogant, but his voice carried undisguised sadness:
Blond hair and blue eyes, it was the boy she had seen in Francis's small room.
Did he sneak out?
Just as Chloe was surprised, the boy seemed to have discovered something was watching him and suddenly raised his head.
Chloe happened to meet his gaze, of course in her mental perception.
She tilted her head curiously, then opened her eyes.
The boy probably realized he was discovered and took the initiative to come out from behind the car.
Seeing Chloe clinging to the railing, the boy hesitated for a moment, then slowly walked over.
Soon, he arrived at the railing with his dirty little hands grasping it, just above Chloe.
Chloe looked him up and down carefully and found that although this kid was about the same age as her, he seemed to be a section taller than her.
Hmm, wasn't he said to be mistreated all the time? How come he grew so tall?
Chloe dismissed this thought and asked, "What are you doing here?"
The boy pursed his lips without answering.
Chloe waited for a while. Seeing that he was unresponsive, she changed the subject: "What's your name then?"
The boy moved his lips and finally said hoarsely: "...Anderson."
Anderson?
Chloe repeated the name in her mind.
She pressed the tip of her tongue against her fangs, tilted her head, and then bluntly said:
"You came here to find me.”
It was not a question.
Anderson hesitated for a moment, then nodded.
"In that case, just say what you have to say quickly, otherwise I'll leave." Chloe spoke rather casually.
Anderson lowered his eyes and said in a low voice, "Don't marry my brother."
He said it very clearly, as if afraid Chloe wouldn't hear it.
Chloe became interested: “Why can't I marry your brother? What if I insist on it?"
She thought this little boy was quite interesting. How did he find the kindergarten?
If Chloe remembered correctly, the Francis family mansion was very far from here.
There was no light in Anderson's eyes, only the usual murky gloom.
At this moment, he said in an extremely serious tone, enunciating each word clearly:
"Edmund is a bad person, don't marry him."
