Powerless Against His Feisty Wife Chapter 1158 Robert's Location
Sam erupted in frustration, "So that's why the prison guards spilled the location so easily. They knew Robert had been moved long ago, and the Hannibal family prison was just a decoy! They might even shift Robert to different locations daily! Damn it, a hundred million down the drain!"Upon receiving intel about Robert's incarceration from Belle, Grayson committed a hundred million dollars to acquire information about the Hannibal family prison, ensuring its authenticity.Rodney consoled, "It's not a total loss. We discovered they're keeping Mr. Strauss alive to lure more enemies to Mandoria."Sam agreed, "You're right."Turning to Grayson, they asked, "What's our next move, Mr. Page?""Advance our forces toward the slums, but maintain a safe distance to avoid detection."Grayson pulled out his phone to send a message before turning his attention back onto the little red dot. Meanwhile, Belle continued through the alleys with Morgan.The surroundings were squalid, with the all

Morgan led Belle toward a man completely covered in bloodstains, bound to a stretcher."This is the man you wanted to see. The boss knew you hated him, so he ordered our men to torture him right before you came."Belle looked up to see a completely disfigured man. She couldn't recognize him as Robert at all. Robert's entire form was painted red, with white bones protruding from his flesh.She couldn't fathom the extent of the torture he had endured.Belle clenched her fists and held her breath, suppressing her anger. "Is he dead?""Not yet. He still holds value alive, so we won't let him die just yet. Hey, you over there! Wake him up!"A soldier stepped forward, pouring ice-cold water onto Robert's face.Robert slowly opened his eyes, accompanied by violent coughs.Belle's heart ached as she watched the ice-cold water slightly wash away some blood from his eyelashes.She recalled Scott's words about Robert—how he preferred to bear his burdens and duties upright, choosing a lif
Powerless Against His Feisty Wife Chapter 1160 Robert Recognized Belle
Confused, Belle wondered if Robert had seen through her Angora disguise. However, she dismissed the possibility since this was his first time seeing Angora. Unless, of course, he had already recognized her. Belle couldn't fathom how Robert instantly recognized her when her disguise successfully deceived the Hannibal family's men.Confusion lingered as Robert vehemently shouted for her to leave. "Get lost! Go away!"There was much Belle wanted to say to Robert, but the situation was neither the right place nor time for a conversation.She held back her emotions and exclaimed, "Of course you want me gone… because seeing me would only remind you of all the sins you've committed. You've killed my lover, and I've sworn never to let you get away with it!" Maintaining the Angora persona, Belle rained punches onto Robert's chest, continuing until he could no longer cough up blood. Only then did she feign satisfaction with her revenge.Belle then stuffed two pills into Robert's mouth in
Powerless Against His Feisty Wife Chapter 1161 Hunter
Belle stood in disbelief. She couldn't fathom why Hunter was present in that place. She was under the impression that he had left town for his competition.Doubt filled her mind as she questioned whether her eyes were deceiving her. It took several careful glances for Belle to confirm that the figure huddled in the corner was indeed Hunter.His grimy appearance hinted at the prolonged confinement he had endured within the confines of the prison. Trembling, he covered his ears, appearing to be gripped by a fear that seemed insurmountable.Distressed and tearful, Belle made a swift decision. She pushed Morgan away and declared, "I'm done here."Morgan, finding refuge behind his soldiers, ordered them to raise their guns and aim at Belle. Unfazed, she remained confident, knowing they wouldn't risk opening fire on her.Addressing Morgan, she explained, "Consider us even for the slap. I'll ensure Mr. Quinn releases Cadel once I return."As she was about to leave, Morgan shouted, "Stop
Powerless Against His Feisty Wife Chapter 1162 Perfect Plan
Rodney just finished a phone call and sighed. "It's done, Mr. Page."Sam clapped his chest in relief. "Thank God… Everything we've planned for so long finally paid off."Grayson's expression remained stern as he asked, "Has Morgan come out of the prison yet?""Yes. He seems thoroughly terrified, understandably so. The sudden demise of their most crucial prisoner has him in for a severe questioning session with his boss."Rodney finally realized why Grayson had been so calm. Everything had gone according to his plan after all—to have Angora meet up with Robert and "accidentally" kill Robert.When Morgan asked for the doctors' help, they would claim that Robert needed surgery and bring him out of prison.The doctors then switched the body.Grayson's planted men, embedded in the Hannibal family from the beginning, would then execute a switch, replacing Robert with a doppelgänger corpse at the opportune moment.Given the extensive damage to Robert's face, the Hannibal family wouldn
Powerless Against His Feisty Wife Chapter 1163 Not Leaving
Meanwhile, Belle was still chatting with Hunter. Maintaining her guise as Angora, Belle took precautions in case anyone was eavesdropping on their conversation while persistently questioning and prodding Hunter.Persistently, she probed Hunter with surface-level inquiries about his origins, the circumstances of his capture, and whether he endured any mistreatment. She even inquired about the existence of loved ones searching for him.Hunter remained unresponsive since he didn't recognize Belle. Belle was at a loss for what to do next when Morgan appeared to bring her out of the prison.Belle was frustrated. Noting the troubled look on Morgan's face, Belle inferred that Grayson's threat to him was the reason for his presence. Seating herself firmly on the floor, she declared, "I'm not leaving!"Morgan's eyes widened with shock. "You don't want to leave?""That's right! I'm not leaving!"Morgan was utterly confused. "You… Didn't you always want to leave before?"Belle snorted
Powerless Against His Feisty Wife Chapter 1164 Do You Know Me
As Belle was about to leave, Hunter suddenly asked, "Do you know me?"Surprise rippled through Belle as Hunter posed the unexpected question. Morgan, too, found himself taken aback by the sudden inquiry.In unison, Belle, Morgan, and the accompanying soldiers turned their attention toward Hunter, their expressions reflecting a shared sense of astonishment.Hunter lowered his head, seemingly afraid of meeting any of their gazes.Belle couldn't help but feel a pang of sympathy for Hunter. After all, he was merely just a young student. While physically unharmed, witnessing the brutality inflicted on others was undoubtedly a form of mental torture for his young mind.Maintaining a façade of ease, Belle approached Hunter, saying, "I didn't know you before, but I guess I do now. I'm always on the lookout for charming men like you, whether young or older."Hunter frowned at Belle, then lowered his head again.Internally cursing Angora, Morgan urged her to leave immediately. He had wast
Powerless Against His Feisty Wife Chapter 1165 Confession
Belle uttered, "Might the competition he claimed to participate in be a deceptive ploy, luring individuals into Mandoria through kidnapping?"But that doesn't make any sense. Why would Hunter, if it were merely human trafficking, find himself confined in a heavily guarded prison? To share the same cell as Robert, a place the Hannibals meticulously secure... I can't fathom why Hunter would end up there. Thankfully, he seems unharmed—" Grayson interrupted her. "I lied. Hunter didn't leave town for a competition or anything. He's been missing for a while."Belle was shocked. "Huh? What did you say?"Grayson's lips quivered as he faced the inevitability of revealing the truth.Belle was upset and furious. "Grayson! You… You lied to me!"Grayson sincerely apologized to Belle. "I'm sorry, Belle. I just didn't want you to worry about so many things, so I—"Belle explained, "I know you're keeping it a secret for my own good, but I hate it when you keep me in the dark like Grandpa alwa

Belle playfully reached for Sixteen again. "Come here!"Sixteen barked back, seemingly firm in his stance. "I'll cry if you don't come here, okay?" Belle then held her face in her hands and pretended to cry.Sixteen immediately calmed down as it nudged Belle's hands with its paws, trying to comfort her. Belle broke character, revealing a grin. "Are you still mad at me?"Sixteen, appeased, finally got into her arms and launched into enthusiastic licks.Grayson watched the exchange with a hint of envy. "Hey, Sixteen!"Sixteen whimpered and offered Grayson a sheepish look.Belle scolded, "Why are you scolding Sixteen? You're a bad guy!"She then petted Sixteen on its head and stood up. "Let's go! We'll get something tasty to eat! Just ignore him, okay?"Grayson was left speechless. He felt defeated by the pet dog as he watched Belle and Sixteen skip and hop into the house.Meredith had already finished preparing dinner when they arrived. She put on a gentle smile as she watched Belle

After returning to the house, Ava asked, "Why did Xenia go crazy? Wasn't she fine not long ago?"Lena wiped her hands and handed the towel back to Ava. "Someone drugged her and induced hallucinations of her worst fears. She's been on the edge ever since. After all, she did commit all sorts of misdeeds." "Someone?""Belle Walters."Ava was shocked. "Why would Belle drug Xenia?"Ava and Lena had been moving from place to place, seeking a safe hideout ever since they picked up Xenia. They had only found a relatively safe place today, so Ava finally had the chance to inquire about the details.Lena shot her a look of disgust and proceeded to ignore her question.Ava dared not press further and changed the topic. "Now that Xenia's lost her mind, can we still get her to talk?"Lena continued to ignore her and went to scribble down a prescription. She had spent the entire day with Xenia in the basement but hadn't managed to extract any useful information from her. Ava sheepishly c

Meanwhile, Ginger, too, was grappling with confusion. She'd also offered Hunter money, only to be stunned into silence by the astronomical sum in his bank statement. Compared to him, she was practically penniless. The largest amount she'd ever held was a few million Gabriel had won in the lottery—a drop in the bucket compared to Hunter's wealth."Why do you think Mr. Sanders was so wealthy?" Ginger queried, seeking Gabriel's insight.Gabriel was similarly grappling with confusion and remained quiet. However, he was preoccupied with a different mystery. His mind was consumed by the deaths of Penny and Terry. He had taken time to visit the corpses and noted the peculiarity surrounding their deaths. Their autopsies revealed unusual injuries that baffled forensics.Both victims, young adults in their prime, looked as if they'd been scared to death.Aware of Hunter's ties to the Nightwalkers, Gabriel wasn't surprised by the inheritance. Compared to the wealth amassed during the Sanders f
Powerless Against His Feisty Wife Chapter 1268 Proud Of Him
Belle pondered aloud, "While Hunter isn't as averse to exploring tombs as Benjamin, they share a similar disposition. Otherwise, with his expertise, he could easily be making a fortune.""The Sanders ancestors might not have been saints," Grayson conceded, "but perhaps Hunter's grandfather started a positive trend. Like Benjamin, he likely tried to shield Hunter from their legacy. A truly evil man couldn't have raised such a kind son."As Benjamin grew, he remained kind-hearted despite his timidity. And now, Hunter has grown into an upright, kind, and courageous young man. His talent for exploration makes him the pride of his lineage."Belle nodded and sighed. "Money is crucial for a comfortable life today. With what Hunter has, financial worries shouldn't trouble him. He'll be well provided for."Grayson pulled her into his arms and responded, "Don't fret. While Hunter may still be in school, he's mature for his age. He can take care of himself just fine."Belle leaned onto his s
Powerless Against His Feisty Wife Chapter 1267 Destiny's Guiding Hand
Hunter crouched by the bed, methodically clearing away the books until a single floor tile lay exposed. Prying it open revealed a dark hole just big enough for one person. Grabbing a flashlight, he squeezed through the narrow opening and emerged into a moderately sized room of perhaps about 130 square feet. Wooden boxes, weathered with age and adorned with simple designs, filled the space.Hunter made a beeline for a particular box, brushing off the dust before prying it open. The wooden box was filled to the brim with notebooks. Hunter sat down on the floor, picked up one of the books, and started reading it.This hidden chamber and its contents were discovered by a young Hunter, seemingly guided by destiny. Hunter's father, Benjamin, had buried them, driven by a desire to safeguard their knowledge from Hunter's curious gaze. Fear had gripped Benjamin after learning about the Sanders family's history, the expertise that had seemingly drawn them toward a dangerous path. He

Nora let out a long sigh. "It's fine. Just keep it with you! I don't really need the money right away or anything. Besides, an old woman like me won't be spending much in town even if I tried."Hunter stopped Nora as she was about to leave and took a wad of money from his bag. "I have 20,000 dollars right here. It's far from the actual price, but you can keep it for now. I'll pay you the rest when I can."Nora was stunned. "Where did you get so much money?""It's the money I gathered from donations for the funeral, mostly from Ms. Belle and Mr. Grayson.""Oh, that makes sense. Here I was, wondering how you managed to get such a huge amount from donations. I can tell your friends are really kind-hearted people. You should treat them just as well as they treat you, okay? Study hard and make a name for yourself, and then you'll be able to properly repay their kindness.""Yeah, I know. Anyway, the gold nugget weighs slightly over 17 ounces. So, its worth is about 37,500 dollars. I'll pay y

As the final step of the funeral, the townsfolk gathered for a meal after Benjamin's burial. After Benjamin was buried, Belle and Ginger approached Hunter, inquiring about his plans for the future. Belle expressed her desire for Hunter to stay with her and Grayson, mentioning that their house had plenty of spare rooms. The only drawback would be that it was quite the distance from his school, but they could always arrange a driver for him.Ginger also invited Hunter to stay with her and Gabriel as their house had just finished with renovations. They also had a spare room for Hunter if he were to join their house.Hunter was genuinely touched by their offers, but he still declined them both. "I'd like to stay in my school's hostel for now. I'll think about what to do next when I graduate."Belle and Ginger recognized that they couldn't sway Hunter's decision, so they ceased their attempts to pressure him into making a choice."If you run out of space for your belongings, you ca

Hunter detailed, "I recall every person who came to offer prayers for my father... However, it was during my trip to the restroom that the dogs began barking. Upon my return, I spotted some unfamiliar footprints. Without seeing anyone there, I dismissed it. But upon hearing about Penny and Terry's deaths this morning, I began to connect the dots..."Both Gabriel and Grayson were left speechless.Gabriel exchanged a glance with Grayson before turning back to Hunter. "So, you're suggesting that the stranger who came to town also visited your house to pray for your father before departing to exact revenge on Penny and Terry for Mr. Sanders' death?""Yes.""Why didn't he meet you then?""I don't know.""Any other suspects you have in mind?"Hunter shook his head. "My father and I don't have friends other than you guys. It's just the two of us for as long as I can remember.""Could it be someone else from the Sanders family?" asked Gabriel."I don't think so.

Belle, Ginger, and the rest of the group arrived at 8:00 am. They noticed the crowd alongside police cars at the entrance to the town. The two of them then squeezed through the crowd to make it to the house as soon as they could. "What happened, Hunter?"The policemen were stunned by their sudden arrival. "Who are you?""We're Hunter's friends. You can tell us about what happened."Hunter's eyes gleamed with hope as he greeted them. "Ms. Belle and Ms. Ginger!"Grayson's car stopped in front of the town alongside a truck filled with equipment for the funeral.Without Belle and Grayson's friendship, Hunter would have had to manage all the funeral arrangements alone, and he wouldn't have had the opportunity to meet Ginger.Sam remained outside to stand guard while Grayson and Gabriel entered the Sanders family's old home.The townsfolk and the police were shocked when they saw them.They didn't recognize Grayson or Gabriel, but they could tell at a glance that they were really special peo
