Grayson retracted his gaze. "When did she tell you this?" he asked Xenia.Xenia fixed her gaze on Grayson, trying to discern his thoughts. Given the deeply hurtful nature of Belle's words, she had expected him to react with anger. Most men would find such comments extremely difficult to overlook, and Grayson should have been no exception.However, as Xenia studied Grayson's expression, she couldn't detect any signs of anger. Xenia wondered if he was just suppressing his anger. If that were the case, Grayson possessed remarkable self-control.With these thoughts in mind, Xenia replied, "She mentioned it a few days ago, but I refrained from telling you because I was afraid it would upset you.""Why did you tell me today?""I … I overheard Belle mentioning she had a secret just now. I'm only worried that someone might manipulate her into doing something that would hurt you. After all, she's still young. "It's easy for her to be swayed by others. Furthermore, she confided in me th

Belle leaned against a tree in the yard while speaking with Dorothy over the phone. Upon hearing Ethel's statement that Dorothy didn't want to meet with anyone, Belle was taken aback."Why would she do that at a time like this? Are you sure that Mrs. Jenkins Senior refused to even see me?"Ethel confirmed, "Yes. Mrs. Jenkins Senior told me herself.""How is that possible?" Belle was confused.Belle could understand why Dorothy was shutting herself from others. However, it was weird for Dorothy to refuse to meet her.Belle and Dorothy had been researching the peculiar medical case together for quite some time. Dorothy was well aware of Belle's medical expertise, making her a valuable asset in their collaborative efforts."Is Mrs. Page Senior isolating herself to focus on studying the mysterious medical case?" Belle asked.Ethel replied, "I'm not sure about that. Mrs. Page Senior wouldn't tell us about this. It could be related to that, or it could be for some other research. "D

Belle was stunned. She looked at Grayson with widened eyes. Her long eyelashes were fluttering rapidly.Belle understood what was happening after a moment's thought. Xenia must have said something to Grayson!It appeared that Xenia couldn't wait any longer to set her plan in motion.Belle furrowed her eyebrows, vowing to retaliate against Xenia. "I was just talking about my affairs. What did they have to do with you?" she asked Grayson, her tone displeased. Grayson narrowed his eyes. "Well, I wasn't involved in the first place. But you mentioned it was because of me that you're dissatisfied. You even called me impotent. Don't you think we should have a discussion?" he began slowly.Belle was choked up for a moment.Belle couldn't rebuke. "Did Xenia tell you that she encouraged me to have an affair? She told me that one of her friends found another man because her husband couldn't satisfy her. "She's quite the character, isn't she? On the one hand, she's teaching me how to c
Powerless Against His Feisty Wife Chapter 189 What Do I Need to Satisfy
Belle was stunned. "What do you want?""Even though you're only 20, you're already an adult. In ancient times, you might have had children by now. So, having desires is entirely natural. There's no need to feel embarrassed. Any normal person would have the same urges. I can help you satisfy it."Belle widened her eyes, wondering what was going on. She asked, "What do I need your help to satisfy?"Grayson answered, "Your sexual desire!""Sexual desires?" Belle wondered. She had wishes she needed to fulfill, which weren't related to lust. She longed for a quick divorce from Grayson and a return to the mountains to reunite with Lovy.She yearned to live a carefree life, reminiscent of her youth, where she wouldn't have to encounter so many people.She hoped her grandfather could reveal more about her background. She wanted to know more about her biological parents.She had a lot of wishes. However, Grayson couldn't grant any of them.Belle rolled her eyes. "Don't bring up other

Grayson emerged immediately after Belle finished speaking, leaving her to wonder if he had been waiting by the door. She couldn't help but stare at his body.Grayson had always stuck to his fitness routine. Thus, he had a model-like physique. He appeared slim when clothed, but without them, his muscular form was on full display.His sun-kissed skin added to his healthy appearance, while his well-defined chest and abdominal muscles showcased his impressive fitness level.With his broad shoulders, narrow waist, and long legs, Grayson undeniably possessed a striking physical presence.Grayson squinted his hooded eyes at Belle. He exuded an attractive charm as he ran his fingers through his hair. Grayson proudly displayed his abs, chest, and muscular arms with a simple motion.Belle's heart raced, and her face flushed. She quickly turned around, not pausing to contemplate why Grayson was showering at this hour."Grayson, you pervert!" she screamed. Belle ran away after yelling that.

Grayson stared at Belle's flushed cheeks and smiled as he raised his hand to stroke her hair."Don't overthink it. Come on, focus."Belle's face grew redder. "I'm not overthinking!"Grayson just smiled without saying a word. He was evidently in a good mood.He gracefully took a step back, elegantly bowed, and then slowly advanced to gently pick up Belle's hand, commencing the dance.She could do nothing except to follow his lead. When he placed his hand on her waist, her body immediately jerked in response. "Hey, you …"Belle's response seemed dramatic, yet the thin fabric of her attire, which accentuated Grayson's gentle touch, felt oddly scorching.However, Grayson remained oblivious to the impact of his actions. She could only bear this peculiar sensation throughout the remainder of the dance.Unbeknownst to her, she was simply not accustomed to the sensation of being held by Grayson. Meanwhile, his enthusiasm was getting the better of him.Grayson had developed an immedi

That afternoon, Grayson decided to send Xenia home earlier. Xenia was shocked. "This is earlier than I expected."To which Grayson was annoyed. "I have plans for the night.""What plans?" she unwittingly asked.He refused to answer her question verbally and merely responded with a frown.Xenia quickly came to realize that she had overstepped her boundaries. "I'll be on my way then. See you tomorrow."Grayson offered no further response, and Belle refrained from waving goodbye.Xenia then reluctantly left the premises.After she left, Grayson turned to Belle and said, "That's all for today. Stay at home and take a break. Don't leave the house for today."Belle did not object as she had intended to take a break to begin with.After confirming Grayson had locked himself in his study, she went back to the bathroom to freshen up before heading out of the house. She paid no attention and showed no interest in his plans for the night. She also had evidently disregarded his reminder

The air was infused with various fragrances and was undoubtedly refreshing to the senses.Belle muttered to herself, "What's that smell? Flowers? And food!"She followed the enticing aroma, guided by the soft glow of dimly lit candles, leading her all the way to the dining room. Her surprise was evident when she realized someone was sitting at the dining table. "What the heck! Why didn't you turn on the lights and respond to my calls if you were home? You scared me!"Grayson was at a loss for words. He had meticulously prepared the setting and dressed up for a romantic candlelight dinner. He had anticipated that Belle would, at the very least, be moved by his thoughtful gestures. To his surprise, she arrived only to be spooked by his presence and shouted at him.He could only wonder if she could display elegance in conducting herself as an adult.Grayson held back his annoyance and approached Belle. "I didn't know that you could be so easily spooked."She pouted in response.

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. I'm an only child, and

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
