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
Grayson strode over to the bed. Then, he found Belle on the floor right next to the bed.He wondered if she had just fallen off the bed.He examined her closely, then realized that Belle was still asleep. She truly had fallen off the bed!Also, her head was angled at the foot of the bed. By the looks of it, her head was already at the foot of the bed before she fell.In other words, she had turned 180 degrees when she was sleeping. Her head had turned from the headboard to the foot of the bed before she fell off the bed.Grayson pursed his lips. He didn't think that he could be more disdainful of Belle, but here he was.She was an adult now, but her sleeping position was all over the place. His huge bed was more than 6 feet wide, but she still managed to fall off the bed!She ground her teeth, snored, and fell off the bed. These were behaviors typically associated with children, yet Belle still exhibited these habits.Grayson wondered if she was truly 20 years old. He felt like
Grayson fell silent. He had guessed it right last night. She did grow up in an uninhabited area in the mountains!Before Grayson could ask further, Belle spoke. "Last night, I said that no beasts dared to disturb me when I slept in the mountains. Is that why you guessed that I grew up in the mountains?"Grayson narrowed his eyes. In reality, Belle wasn't silly most of the time."That's right. Since you've admitted to it, tell me. Why would you live in an uninhabited area? Who are you hiding from? Who are your parents? What jobs do they have? Are they—"Belle interrupted him with a stern expression."Stop asking. I won't tell you even a word! Also, stop trying to investigate me. Our contract clearly states that we will only be married for two years."We will be divorced when the time comes! Why would you investigate me and pay attention to me? If you keep doing this, I'll think that you've fallen for me!"Grayson's train of thought was instantly derailed.He just wanted to know
Belle was stunned at his question.Henry had kept urging her to carry out the investigation. So, naturally, she knew it had to come from Grayson!To hide her identity as a hacker, Belle could only mention her fake 18 relationships."If you haven't investigated me, how would you have known that I've been in 18 relationships? You're the one who said it yourself."At the mention of the 18 relationships, Grayson was pissed for some reason. His train of thought was getting derailed again. He shouted at her, "Aren't you ashamed to talk about that? You don't know how to respect or love yourself. Do you think that jumping from one relationship to another is something to be proud of?"You may be proud of your experience in romance, but you don't know the things men say behind your back!"You're the one who suffered losses and was being taken advantage of, but you think you're all that! You're childish, stupid, foolish, and an idiot …" Grayson rattled on. He had gotten himself red in t
Looking at the bulging spot, Belle widened her eyes. Her face instantly turned red like a tomato when she thought of the scene she saw last night. She hastily looked away.Sixteen didn't know better. Seeing that it had pulled down Grayson's pants, it got even more excited. It tried to pull down Grayson's boxers as well."Sixteen!" Grayson shouted in anger. He hastily put his pants back on.It was only then that Sixteen noticed something off about Grayson's expression. With its tail between its legs, it turned around and ran away. It soon disappeared from the room.Grayson was so pissed that his expression was dark to the extreme. Looking at Belle's shy behavior, he knew what she was thinking about. He shouted at her, "Belle, you'd better forget everything about last night! Don't you dare get any ideas about me!""Get ideas about him?" Belle thought.Belle's face was red as she retorted, "Who's getting ideas about you, huh?""You!""You … I'm telling you, don't accuse me like
Noah laughed, "You sure have good ears! Don't worry. I won't go back on my word! Anyway, just enjoy your time at Maltford with Grayson, okay? I won't disappoint you."Belle quickly added, "Relax! I promise to be peaceful with Grayson. I won't disappoint you either! I won't divorce him until the time is up."Noah replied, "I actually wanted you to stay with him forever, not just for these two years!"Belle turned slightly hostile. "Grandpa! We promised to do this for only two years and nothing more! I agreed to everything just for Lovy, after all. Not a single day more!""Lovy this, Lovy that, people might think you're still a kid!""What's so funny about it! Grandpa, you promised to take care of Lovy! Oh yeah, tell Lovy I would come back to visit whenever possible.""No visiting! You said so yourself, two years! Not a single day less!""Alright, alright. I'm just saying that I miss Lovy!""Alright, alright. But you should be thinking about your husband instead since you're marr
