Grayson let go of her and handed her a card. "Take this." It was a credit card. Belle looked at it curiously. "What's this supposed to mean?""You have a husband. You shouldn't be spending your own money!"Belle narrowed her eyes and pondered it. She didn't know what he was getting at.They had been married for so long, but he had only mentioned living expenses once. What was this all about? Was he afraid of getting embarrassed if others found out that he didn't give her any money?Belle took the card and asked, "How much can I spend?""As you wish.""Really?" Grayson rolled his eyes and chased her off. Before he left, he rolled down the window and said, "Call me once you're done shopping. I'll pick you up."Belle was surprised. What was going on with him today?He was giving her money and offering to pick her up. It was a 180-degree change in his attitude toward her.Belle wanted to ask him, but Grayson already rolled up the window and left.Xenia said, "Grayson is so
Belle said proudly, "You're right. Of course, my husband's powerful!" Xenia was green with envy. The ladies walked over to them and spoke to Xenia, ignoring Belle completely."I heard that you were at Mr. Page's house today. Is it true? What did you guys talk about?"Xenia smiled and said, "I just visited Gray for a while. We didn't talk much.""Wow, you're even calling him 'Gray' now. We would never dare! You sound so close to him!"Xenia was overjoyed at all the attention she was getting. She loved being connected to Grayson. After all, not everybody could get close to him.Among her friends, only she and Alice got the chance to even speak to him. However, she didn't feel as satisfied because Belle was there."Stop fooling around. I only went to his house to give Ms. Walters a dance class. Let me introduce you. This is Grayson's girlfriend." Grayson and Belle's marriage was a secret, so no one else knew except the Page family. Xenia only found out because she was Dawson's f
Jean's eyes grew as round as saucers, and she got tongue-tied. The others were also flabbergasted.Even the salesperson couldn't believe her ears. She had seen many rich people, but it was her first time meeting someone so filthy rich.The salesperson approached Belle and asked tentatively, "Excuse me, miss. I didn't get what you meant. Do you want to look at all these watches, or do you want to … buy all of them?""I'm buying them. I said I'll buy all of them."The manager was also shocked. He asked in disbelief, "Are … you sure?"Belle couldn't understand the confusion. "What's wrong? Can't I buy them?""Of course you can! Please follow me. I'll explain the design and features of each watch. Lisa, get the best tea from my office and make our client a cup.""Right away." The salesgirl quickly went into the manager's office. A customer like Belle would account for the entire year's sales! Belle interrupted them. "You don't have to explain. Just wrap them up for me.""Huh?" sa
"I'm still in a meeting. Take a taxi home," said Grayson. He was about to hang up when Belle said, "Just end the meeting. You said you would pick me up. You can't go back on your word! "Besides, it would be so embarrassing if you didn't come because I already told Xenia you would. It will seem as if you don't love me. Hurry up!"Grayson was speechless. Had he ever loved her? Why was she being so clingy all of a sudden? They had been married for half a year, but this was a first! Was she trying to put on an act for Xenia? He was putting on an act to crush Xenia's feelings for him, but what was Belle doing it for?Was she doing it just to make Xenia jealous? But why? Xenia didn't mess with her like June did! Could she possibly see Xenia as a rival? Had Belle fallen in love with him?Grayson suspected Belle even more when he recalled how she had kept trying to seduce him recently. After some thought, he put down his work and went to pick Belle up at the mall.Belle, Xenia, a
Grayson looked around at everyone and fixed his gaze on Belle. Although his wife was fierce, rude, and disobedient, he had to admit that she was drop-dead gorgeous. The other women looked invisible next to her. But why was she looking at him like that?Grayson walked to Belle and took her shopping bags. He pretended to be very loving toward her for Xenia to see."Did you buy all of these?" asked Grayson. Belle nodded."Why did you buy so much?"To take revenge on him, of course! Belle wanted to use his money since he was using her! It hurt, didn't it?Belle kept an innocent look on her face and said, "I haven't gone shopping in ages, so I bought a lot this time. You told me to buy anything I wanted, didn't you? Are you mad that I spent so much money now?"Belle spoke coquettishly and pouted. She looked adorable. Grayson narrowed his eyes.His wife was always bad-tempered toward him. She had never acted this way before! It seemed like he had guessed correctly. Belle had falle
Every woman who was present was very jealous when they saw how Grayson treated Belle. However, Belle was incredibly disappointed. She lost interest in getting revenge at that instant. She decided not to say the words that would disgust Grayson anymore. Belle started treating Grayson like she used to before. She ignored him, turned, and left the place. Grayson noticed that Belle was unhappy, and his brows furrowed. "Shouldn't Belle be happy that I was speaking to her in such a nice manner?" Grayson thought. Belle seemed to be unhappy with what Grayson did. In fact, she looked like she was angry. It was difficult for Grayson to understand what Belle was thinking. To guess a woman's thought was as difficult as looking for a needle in a haystack. What was Belle thinking? Was she trying to play a game of tug-of-war with him?Grayson was still trying to figure out what happened when Belle walked to Sam's side. "Mrs. Page, there are too many things in the car's trunk, so s
Xenia's expression was incredibly dark at the moment. Everyone focused on Belle, and no one cared about her anymore. It was as if she didn't exist at all. Besides, no one thought that she and Grayson had any kind of relationship. Xenia heard that Grayson didn't like Belle at all. However, Grayson's actions toward Belle indicated that he actually liked her very much. That made Xenia more angry. Did she receive false information? Was she late to the party, and Grayson had already started liking Belle after being with her for an extended period? Xenia gathered her thoughts as she saw Sam start the car. She immediately said goodbye to her friends and went up to the vehicle. "I want to be with Belle tonight. She won't be going to dance class now but will do so tomorrow. You can go home and take a rest. I'll have my bodyguards take you home," Grayson said to Xenia when she opened the car door. Xenia's expression soured at Grayson's words.She was incredibly saddened but tried no
The affluent young ladies couldn't help but feel consumed by jealousy after discussing Grayson. Their eyes seemed to emit shades of green, and a fiery passion of resentment burned within their hearts.They surrounded Xenia and asked, "Xenia, what's really going on? Didn't you say that Mr. Page doesn't like Ms. Walters?""Mr. Page seems to really like her! He seems to dote on her a lot!"Xenia clenched her fists secretly, and a hint of anger flashed through her eyes. She had underestimated Belle.Belle bought so many things today, but it wasn't for herself. She was trying to win over Grayson's men. She was truly cunning! It was obvious she was doing this to please Grayson.Xenia had completely misunderstood Belle's intentions. Xenia was extremely furious but tried to hide it by calmly saying, "Feelings can be nurtured. Belle has been with Grayson for half a year now. It's normal that they develop feelings for each other. You all must be tired from shopping all day. Let's go. I'
