My Husband Is a Million Years Old Vampire-Chapter 150

Valentina was still staring at the dresses in silence. Her heart was beating fast, but it wasn’t fear—it was something deeper. She really loved them. Every fabric, every gem sewn into those gowns called her name. She didn’t need to say it out loud. It showed on her face.

Right then, Chloe was still frozen. She hadn’t moved, hadn’t blinked. She looked like someone hit by a lightning bolt and was trying to breathe again. Her eyes were wide, lips parted, and her fingers tightened slightly around the glass she hadn’t even touched.

At that moment Victoria leaned close and gently tapped her arm. "Chloe," she whispered, trying not to draw attention. "Let’s go. Please."

Chloe didn’t answer.

"This is beyond us now," Victoria added quietly. "This has passed the point of competition. Just look around. The crowd, the respect, the way the manager himself is attending to her... this isn’t something we planned for."

Hearing what Victoria just said Chloe still didn’t move.

Again Victoria leaned in closer, firmer this time. "Don’t even think of doing anything. I’m serious. If you try anything now, it’s going to backfire badly. Everyone’s watching. You won’t just embarrass yourself—you’ll destroy everything."

At that moment Chloe’s lips twitched, her jaw tight, but she still didn’t speak.

"I’m begging you," Victoria said, keeping her voice low. "Let’s just walk out with what’s left of our dignity. We still have a chance to leave without making a mess. Let’s go... now."

At that moment Victoria’s heart wasn’t calm anymore. She kept her eyes on Chloe, but her mind was racing. She knew Chloe too well. That woman wouldn’t walk out of this boutique quietly. Not without trying something. Not without causing trouble.

Even though Valentina had the upper hand today, she couldn’t relax. Her past with Chloe was messy—full of drama, lies, and pain. She still remembered what happened at the police station. She still remembered how Chloe laughed when she was at her lowest. But now... everything had changed.

Valentina had stepped into a world Chloe never thought she’d enter. A world far beyond what Chloe was used to. And Valentina didn’t even understand how she got here so fast. But one thing was clear—she wasn’t the same girl Chloe used to mock. Not anymore.

As Chloe stood beside her, she leaned in slowly, and whispered with cold words, "You think you’ve won, right? You think you’re better now? I’m not going to let you walk away feeling like you’ve won this time."

However Valentina didn’t respond. Her chest tightened a little. Not out of fear—but out of worry. Chloe was unstable when she lost, and she could feel something dark behind those words.

Chloe went on in a soft, sharp voice, "You’ve always had a way of beating me. Always. But when you had that accident... I felt peace. I thought it was over. I was happy... happy that no one would shine brighter than me again."

She paused, and her lips curled slightly, but there was no joy in her eyes.

"But now, you’re back," she muttered. "And the worst part? You’re acting like some queen. Like you own this place. Like you’re untouchable."

Chloe’s face was full of disgust. She didn’t like the feeling in her chest. She didn’t like how everything was going Valentina’s way. Valentina looked confident, calm, and untouchable. And that made Chloe even more angry.

She whispered to herself, "She thinks she’s won... just because she married some quiet fool?"

Without wasting anymore time Chloe stepped forward and looked at the manager with a mocking smile. Everyone could see that it wasn’t a real smile. It was fake—full of bitterness.

She laughed a little and said, "Sir, I know you’re doing your job, but don’t you think this whole show... was too much?"

At that moment the manager looked confused. Chloe continued.

"All this entrance, all this drama... for what?" She scoffed. "You’re bringing out one of the most expensive gowns in the whole country. For who? Valentina?"

She turned a bit, facing the others. "Let me tell you something," she said loudly. "She won’t buy it. Not even one of those five gowns. You can write it down."

Immediately The room got quiet, and Chloe kept talking. freeweɓnovel.cѳm

"She can’t afford that diamond dress," she said, pointing at the box. "In fact, all of this? It’s a waste of time. You should take the clothes back before she embarrasses herself."

Immediately Chloe folded her arms like she had just made a smart point. "Honestly, you should punish her. She wasted your time."

But the manager didn’t smile. He didn’t even blink.

He looked straight into Chloe’s eyes. His voice was low, calm, and deadly serious.

"Madam," he said, "this is the VIP sector. Everything you see here... is paid for. Including those five dresses."

He turned slightly and added, "And for your concern, the diamond gown was fully paid in advance."

Immediately the word left the manager mouth, Chloe’s body froze. Her legs felt weak. She almost lost her balance. For a second, it was like the whole world went quiet around her. She blinked fast, trying to understand what she just heard.

"What?" she said under her breath. "They... paid already?"

Then she turned slowly, looking at the manager again as if maybe she had heard wrong.

The manager stood still and repeated himself clearly, his voice calm and proud.

"Yes. All five gowns, including the diamond gown, were paid for—before they even stepped in."

Again Chloe’s mouth opened slightly, but no words came out.

’Paid... before they even got here’

She stared at Valentina like she had never seen her before. Her heart was beating fast now, not just from shock but from fear. Deep fear. She felt something heavy settle in her chest.

Immediately whispers began to grow around the room.

"Did you hear that?"

"She paid in full? Before she came?"

"Who is she? She’s not from any top family I know, She’s not a celebrity either."

"Maybe she’s married to someone powerful..."

Everyone’s eyes turned to Valentina. Some stared with curiosity. Some with quiet admiration. Others with confusion. No one could understand how someone like her had just bought one of the most expensive dresses in the whole country without even blinking.

Chloe stood there, still and silent. Inside her mind, everything was crashing.

Valentina stood still, her eyes wide. Even she didn’t know what to say anymore.

’Wait... paid already?’

She slowly turned her head toward Raymond. So that’s why he didn’t want her to complain about the price. That’s why he kept smiling and telling her to stop worrying. He had already paid for everything before they even arrived.

She looked at him with surprise in her eyes. "Raymond... you already paid?" she asked in a quiet voice.

At that moment Raymond just smiled, his hands in his pocket like it was nothing. "Yes, my love. I didn’t want you thinking too much. You deserve the best."

Valentina was quiet. She felt her heart warm up. She was still surprised, but now, she understood. He had planned all of this from the beginning.

At that moment, Raymond turned to the manager. "Please package everything. Put them nicely in the boxes and send them to our car," he said calmly. "My wife loves all of them."

Immediately the manager bowed with full respect. "Yes, sir. Right away."

Then, to everyone’s surprise, the manger raised his hand gently.

And just like that, another sales attendant walked forward.

This one carried a very special box, shiny, and beautifully made.

The woman holding the shiny box walked gently and stopped right in front of Valentina. He bowed deeply, showing great respect.

Then the manager stepped forward again. Without saying a word at first, he opened the box slowly.

Immediately Everyone leaned a little forward.

Inside was a beautiful, golden dress. It sparkled softly under the boutique lights, like stars on water.

And beside the dress was a golden card—sleek, shiny, and elegant.

At that moment the manager turned to Valentina with a polite smile and bowed. "Madam Valentina," he said respectfully, "this is our gift to you from the company. In the seven years of our company history, you are the highest buyer we have ever had."

There were small gasps from behind. Chloe blinked. Victoria was frozen again.

The manager continued. "This golden VIP card gives you full access to our store anytime. You can pick five outfits at no cost in the standard area each time you visit. And anytime we make a rare or special dress for only top clients, you’ll be the first to see it."

He bowed again and added, "You can also choose if you want us to keep a dress for you only. No one else will see it unless you allow."

Hearing the manager just said Valentina looked speechless.

"And lastly," he said with pride, "our company will now invite you to our executive meetings. We want your opinion on big decisions. A seat will be reserved for you at the table."

Immediately he stepped back.

Then, all eleven attendants who were still standing bowed their heads together.

At that moment Everyone in the boutique watched in shock. Chloe’s mouth was slightly open.

She didn’t move. Didn’t blink. Didn’t speak.

Because this wasn’t just respect only, it was something she hadn’t seen before.
