Ling Xue, after hearing the warning that Miss Chloe had given her just now, stopped completely and didn't try to do anything further. She only nodded in return to her words of warning while her heart was beating with full intensity.
She wouldn't try to attack her, knowing that without a surprise attack, her chances of survival were practically nil. However, this had also increased the fear in her eyes even more than before, as it looked like she had misunderstood her. If Miss Chloe had really wanted to kill her, she would have been dead by now.
She regretted her decision once again to try and read her, which had caused her to be stuck in this hard situation once again.
Chloe had sensed Ling Xue's intention of fighting to the death, which she really didn't want to do. She didn't know what had caused her to act so desperately, but thankfully, she had sensed the change in mana in the atmosphere around her and stopped her before she could do anything stupid.
Seeing her nod to her words and not sensing any change in the mana in the atmosphere, Chloe was relieved and knew she was going to explain to her that nothing was going to happen. Otherwise, she didn't know what Ling Xue would try to do next in desperation.
She knew it was her bloodlust that Ling Xue had experienced earlier, which had traumatized her and was the reason behind her attempts. So she was not upset with her and only looked at her with pity and spoke to her once again.
While she wanted to forgive her easily after everything that had happened, the thought of being able to be called Miss Chloe for the rest of her life by the one and only leader of the Winter Organization, Ling Xue—a very prideful and arrogant woman from her knowledge—was sothing she couldn't let pass.
She knew Ling Xue would keep her word, so not taking such a once-in-a-lifeti opportunity was not sothing Chloe could do. Whenever she heard her calling her Miss Chloe, she felt deep satisfaction inside.
However, after so thought, she considered whether she could go with Miss Chloe, as Ling Xue had referred to her earlier, or Big Sister Chloe, which she had just thought of. She didn't know what to do, as both of them sounded good.
She imagined herself being called Big Sis Chloe by Ling Xue in her mind, and the feeling she got just by imagining her calling her big sister was much more satisfying than when Ling Xue had actually called her Miss Chloe.
After deciding what to do, Chloe quickly expressed her thought with a small smirk on her face, thinking she had properly utilized her opportunity.
"Hehehehe, Big Sister Chloe."
In her life, many tis people had misunderstood her as a child, which she didn't like one bit. However, knowing there was soone taller than her who would call her big sister for the rest of her life gave her a thrill she couldn't asure.
A few giggles escaped her mouth, which she couldn't control due to how excited she was at the mont.
The sound of her giggles in Ling Xue's ear made her even more uncomfortable than she already was. However, like before, Chloe had said she was standing while bending her knees to match her eye level to show her cooperation, as she had already ssed up many tis.
She didn't know why, but while Chloe's giggles looked cute even to her, for so reason, she didn't feel well after seeing her giggling.
"You are going to call Big Sister Chloe for the rest of your life, and I will forget everything you have done until now."
"Are you okay with this?" Her tone was sharper this ti as she asked if Ling Xue was okay with it, becoming impatient and wanting to quickly be done with this. She hadn't forgotten the pest she had to deal with tonight.
As she rembered how Mark's father would be coming tomorrow to find him, she thought about how, after so argunt, Mark would not go with his father. In the end, his father would give him so bodyguards and weapons to take care of himself and then leave to find his other son.
She had seen how desperate his father was to take him along, and for so reason, he had even offered Ling Xue to co with them, which she had rejected. However, seeing the care his father had shown for him, Chloe was quite jealous of Mark for so ti. After that incident, she didn't like him one bit, without knowing anything about him, as he had been so disrespectful to his father. She could clearly see in his father's eyes that he cared for him so much.
That day, she had thought of her own father, which only soured her mood for a while. Seeing how spoiled and fortunate Mark was, she grew jealous of him and started disliking him after witnessing what had happened.
His fate would have been much better if he had left with his father that day, but in the end, he would have likely died by being eaten by so zombies or, by so miracle, survived, which didn't matter to her right now.
But after what she had seen months later and knowing what type of talent he had, she wasn't going to let him go. Tonight would be the day she dealt with this scum before he could do anything vile as he had done before in this life.
She was not going to show him any rcy. After thinking about it, she felt it was wrong to take advantage of Ling Xue's current state, as she was practically doing her a favor or even saving her life. If she had forgotten about him and gone to find Aiden in this lifeti.
Mark would have likely acted against her when she was not present, which ant there wouldn't be anyone strong enough here to hold Mark's puppets off until Ling Xue dealt with him, which could practically change the outcos of the situation. She didn't even want to imagine what would have happened if she had forgotten about him because of how little she had known him and how quickly he was dealt with.
