Grayson was caught off guard and unable to dodge the blow, taking a hit from the broken door. His nose and forehead bore the brunt of the impact, causing him to emit a small cry as he frowned in pain. The collateral damage included a valuable high-tech door lock.As soon as the door lock shattered, alarms throughout the house began blaring. Bodyguards swiftly emerged from all corners of the house. They formed a protective perimeter around Grayson to assess and inquire about his condition."Mr. Page! Are you alright?""Mr. Page! Are you okay?""Mr. Page!""Mr. Page!""Mr. Page!"The lights inside the house flicked on one by one. It was suddenly bustling with activity in the middle of the night.Grayson's assistant and his most formidable personal bodyguard, Jake White, made his rare appearance. Noticing the bruise on Grayson's forehead, he frowned and asked, "Mr. Page, what happened? I was confident that no suspicious individuals had entered the vicinity, and yet the alarm
Grayson, seething with anger, roughly grabbed Belle's clothing. He had kept himself pure for his 29 years of life, only to be claimed as dysfunctional by someone who had just molested and witnessed his naked body.He thought that Belle needed to be taught a lesson. Grayson's actions were forceful. But his intention was clear. He intended to engage intimately with Belle. Belle was taken aback by his behavior and began to feel overwhelmed with panic.She had fabricated the story about his physical issues in a fit of anger and spite after he locked her outside in the cold.They had a prenuptial agreement that excluded intimacy, but her words had apparently provoked him to break that promise.She silently said, "Fuck!""Fuck off, Grayson! If you dare try to take advantage of my body, I will make you regret your actions!"Grayson, however, ignored her warnings. He gripped her wrists, pulled them over her head, and began kissing her.Belle quickly turned her head away, and the
Grayson paused for a moment before responding, "I remember you.""You finished your current batch of scented sachets abnormally fast, so I decided to contact you directly. May I ask if you've taken any other medications apart from using my scented sachets?""Nothing else.""Then, has anything recently happened that might have affected your mood?"Grayson immediately thought of Belle and June. Their altercations indeed had affected him."There are some unpleasant incidents, yes.""Hmm … There is a possibility that your emotions cause your current anomaly. However, we can't completely rule out medical factors just yet.""I will be visiting Maltford soon. Why don't we meet up if you're available? I can give you a medical checkup and replenish your scented sachets.""For now, could you try not using any of the scented sachets and simply endure it?"Grayson frowned in response. He could try enduring it, but sleep was crucial for the human body. He began to worry that nights of in
The questions in Grayson's mind kept increasing. Soon, Grayson was at his limit. Tapping his cigarette against the ashtray, he picked up his phone and called Henry.As soon as the call went through, he asked right away, "Have you still not found anything?"Henry was looking up on urologists. When he heard Grayson's question, he answered right away."I'm almost there. Mr. Page, when do you have time for consultations? I can help you book some appointments. I've contacted quite a few doctors for you. They're all quite famous!"Grayson didn't understand what he was saying. "What do you mean by consultations?""Mr. Page, you don't have to be shy around me. We all know your secret. Don't feel inferior. It's okay. After you get treatment from the doctors, you'll perk right up. Ms. Walters will be amazed!"Grayson's expression turned dark. "What are you on about?"Henry spoke three terms. "Kidney weakness, erectile dysfunction, and premature aging."Grayson's lips were pursed into a t
Grayson suddenly recalled how helpless young Belle looked when she was hiding everywhere.His heart ached for some reason. But the ache lasted for only a split second. It went by so fast that he didn't notice it himself.He was wondering what Belle did that the entire society refused to accept her. She even had to hide in desolate areas to survive.He asked himself, "But she was so young. She couldn't have done anything wrong. So, more accurately, what did her family do?"Moreover, she had been living in an uninhabited area."So how did Grandpa decide that she was worthy of being my wife? She's going to be the future young Mrs. Page, after all."Also, what's the relationship between Belle's grandfather and Grandpa? How did they end up working together so that Belle and I would get married?"Grayson lit another cigarette, continuing to smoke.Without a doubt, there must be a huge secret behind Belle.But he didn't know what it was.He didn't know what that secret had to do wit
Belle frowned and pouted. She glared at Grayson with a cold look.Grayson frowned deeply. Even though he was the one who kissed her first, Belle was also his first kiss.He didn't understand why she was so mad. She should be happy about it, and he should be the angry one.Ignoring Belle, Grayson strode toward the couch.Something suddenly flew out from behind him. Grayson hastily dodged it.He wanted to turn around to look, but something flashed before him. He couldn't open his eyes because of it.In an instant, the pillow that was sent flying at him was cut open. White feathers filled the entire room as if it were snowing.Grayson frowned as he pondered what had cut the pillow open. He wondered if it was the same thing that had lit up and flashed in front of him moments earlier.He wondered if it was the same thing Belle had used to attack him. It had caused pain on the back of his hand, yet no wounds were discovered.Grayson was still deep in thought. Suddenly, his favorite
"How … How can you be so careless? Is this how your grandfather raised you? You're only 20 this year, but you've already been in 18 relationships. You're just so … You …"He was already 29 this year but hadn't even been in a relationship before!She was younger than him by nine years, but she had already been in 18 relationships!"This woman is just …" Grayson thought.He didn't know what he was mad about, either. He was pissed when he suddenly received confirmation that she was a true flirter.He was even more worked up than just now when he saw his favorite things getting thrown about by Belle. He was so mad that he wanted to stomp his feet.Pursing his lips, he had a dark look on his face. He strode back and forth in the room. After a while, he spoke fiercely to Belle."You should just give up. I'm telling you, I despise casual women the most. I will never fall for you in my entire life. No matter what you do or how much effort you put in, I won't ever have any love for you!"
Grayson didn't feel like fighting Belle anymore.In his rage, he warned in a cold voice, "I'm telling you, you won't be able to win against me in a fight. If you dare challenge me, you'll regret it!""I won't be able to win, you say? I have a thousand ways to send you off!""You … Belle, remember, I haven't told your grandfather about your boxing activities yet!"Grayson suddenly mentioned Noah. Belle instantly stopped.She didn't fear anything else. But she was scared her grandfather might discover she wasn't on her best behavior. She feared that Noah would cancel their promise because of this. She had sacrificed two years of her life to stay married to a man she didn't like. She did it only because she made a promise to Noah.That matter was very important.At least to her, it was extremely important!Belle glared at Grayson, anger and hatred filling her mind. She should have told Noah that she had been boxing. Then, Grayson wouldn't have used it against her.But now …"Y
