Heartthrob: The vampire princess doesn't want to be a stand-in

The Bai family’s current attempt to compete with the Lan family is simply like hitting a rock with an egg.

Besides, just accusing her of trespassing into the Lan family's residence was enough to make her suffer.

Evelin's finger, which was about to pull the trigger, stopped without her brain's control when she heard the word 'fiancée'.

Then he angrily shook off Aina's hand that was tightly holding her.

These three words are like a sinking stone thrown into a calm lake, causing thousands of waves that take a long time to calm down.

Ina waited for a long time in the terrifying atmosphere, and she was so nervous that she even felt suffocated.

Just when she thought Evelyn would not let her go, Evelyn put away the gun and pushed the door open.

At that moment, Aina seemed to be reborn, breathing in the air in big gulps.

She had already lost all strength, her brain was unable to think at all, and her feet felt as weak as if they were stepping on cotton. She was sure that she had walked back from the gates of hell.

“Come in.” At this moment, Evelin’s emotionless voice reached her ears.

Aina wiped the beads of sweat from her forehead, took a long breath, put away all the negative emotions, and walked in with a gentle and generous smile.

She didn’t ignore the touch of emotion she caught in Evelin’s eyes the moment Evelin heard the word ‘fiancée’.

Entering the room, Evelin waved her hand and lit all the candles in the room and sat by the window.

He left Aina at the door until he finished the chores at hand and then motioned for her to sit down.

"It's just a small token of my appreciation. It tastes good." Aina gritted her teeth to suppress the humiliation.

She raised the red wine in her hand, opened it, poured it into the glass and handed it to Evelin. This was the protagonist of the night, and she had 'carefully' prepared it for her.

With the warm yellow candlelight, Ina finally had time to take a good look at Evelin.

She had only heard of it before but had never seen it. Even before the banquet started, she just watched from afar.

Now that she was in close contact, she discovered that Evelyn did not look like Garland at all, as outsiders said.

She was born with fair skin and beautiful looks, more beautiful than flowers, with an unparalleled family background and the most precious bloodline of all.

Those blue eyes, golden hair and the name Lancaster were things she could never get even if she worked hard all her life.

The important thing is that Evelin is pampered and protected by the man whom Aina deeply loves.

All of this is what Ina has always dreamed of.

Although the Brando family is also a first-class century-old noble family and holds a lot of power.

But the few small pieces of paper in their hands are no match for the temptation of the Lan family's overwhelming power.

The Lan family is the only royal family in the Castrasser continent, and they are in charge of the ten closed cities in the Castrasser continent.

After thinking about it, the jealousy that Aina had tried her best to suppress overflowed again, and even the look she gave Evelin was somewhat ambitious.

As perceptive as Evelin was, she naturally sensed her hostility, and immediately raised her eyes, staring at her with cold scarlet eyes.

"Put aside your thoughts. I have not yet investigated your behavior of trespassing today."

There was an unquestionable tone in her voice, a hint of pure-blood oppression.

Ina couldn't help but tremble and immediately knelt on the ground. This was a force she could not resist.

"I'm sorry, Your Highness. I have no objection. Everyone envies your Highness..."

Aina's speech was incoherent. No matter how unwilling they were to be humiliated, vampires were born to obey purebloods. They could not resist the absolute orders of purebloods.

“Don’t talk nonsense. What do you want to ask?” Evelin frowned and pinched her brows. She was getting sleepy. Ina was still chattering, and Evelin gradually lost her patience.

Ina secretly observed Evelin's movements, with a hidden gleam in her eyes, perhaps it was God's help for her.

"Your Highness, please do not bear a grudge against me for my recklessness today. Today is your birthday, and I would like to offer you a toast." After saying that, Aina stood up and drank the wine in the glass in one gulp.

Evelin frowned, took a sip and put down the glass, she didn’t have much patience to accompany her.

"Your Highness has grown up with Lan Dian. I think you must know all of Lan Dian's preferences and needs. Lan Dian's birthday is in a few days. I have thought about it for a long time and can't think of what to give him. As Lan Dian's fiancée, wouldn't it be too rude if I don't even prepare a gift? So I thought of asking your Highness for advice."

Ina observed Evelin's expression. Ever since she discovered that Evelin was particularly sensitive to the word "fiancée", she always mentioned it intentionally or unintentionally.

Evelin discovered her intention and immediately spoke with a cold face.

"You're not engaged yet, so respect yourself." She had never seen anyone so anxious to get married. Engagement? They hadn't even started dating yet, how shameless.

Aina felt embarrassed and didn't dare to say anything else. She could only smile awkwardly.

Because her grand plan was about to be accomplished, she was indeed a little presumptuous, and she had to take things slow.

Evelin finished the red wine in her glass and moved her gaze to the terrace outside the window.

The whole room fell silent again, it was so quiet that it was a little scary.

She stared at the blue roses that were blooming for a long time, with waves of emotion in her eyes.

The distant memories were once again opened and accidentally flooded into my mind.

That day was the same as today, with a cloudless night sky and numerous stars shining like broken diamonds.

Evelyn and Garland sat side by side on the terrace. There was still more than a month until Garland's birthday. From that day on, Evelyn began to prepare a gift for Garland.

Although, Garland doesn't care much about birthdays.

A cool breeze blew, and Evelyn crawled into Garland's arms, kicking her calves and speaking softly.

"Brother, is there anything you want?" After saying that, she blinked her bright eyes and looked at him expectantly.

"I have everything I need." Seeing her excited face, Garland immediately guessed that she was going to prepare another birthday present for him.

In the past, he hated birthdays; their long and dark lives made him numb.

Until that year Evelyn came into my life.

She brought him endless joy and surprises, and he even occasionally looked forward to what kind of precious memories Evelyn would bring him on his next birthday.

“Hmm…” Evelyn couldn’t help but frowned when she heard Garland’s answer.

"What's that? It's better not to answer..." Evelyn pushed Garland's arms away, hung her head, kicked her feet intermittently, and ignored him.

“Why are you still angry?” Garland laughed, and seeing that she really ignored him, he held Evelin’s little face with both hands and forced her to look at him.

"As long as it's something you prepare carefully, I like it." Garland's eyes were serious and gentle like a clear spring, emitting a light more eye-catching than diamonds.

"Really?"

"When did my brother lie to you?"
