"You know me?" asked Belle."You look familiar," answered Robert."I feel like we have met before," continued Belle.Robert thought that Belle recognized him. A hint of emotion appeared on his stoic face."Have we?""Where did we meet?" Belle pressed on.Robert was afraid of blowing his cover. He played it safe and gave a cryptic answer. "In the mountains."He did not elaborate further. If Belle recognized him, she would know what he was talking about. Meanwhile, Belle's eyes glimmered with hope. But this was her secret. Instead of reuniting with him right away, she decided to probe gingerly, "Lovy?"He had met Lovy before. If Robert were the guy Belle thought he was, then Robert would recognize the name immediately."Huh?" Robert frowned, confused.Belle frowned, too. So Robert wasn't the guy. She must have mistaken Robert for someone else.Belle couldn't deny that she was disappointed. She thought she had run into an old friend who knew her past. She thought she would be

Grayson began to kiss Belle. His advance was ruthless, assertive, and forceful. Belle was taken aback. She tried to fight back but was too weak to make Grayson budge."Grayson, you piece of … Mmm!" Belle was frustrated. Grayson's lips sealed whatever words that tried to exit Belle's mouth.Like a predator who marked its territory, Grayson tried to mark Belle with his scent. Admittedly, Belle's heart was racing. For a second, she wanted to indulge in the pleasure.But she was not going to let temptation win!Her hands were pinned against the door above her head.

Downstairs, Melanie was waiting anxiously. When she saw her maid, she approached her,"How did it go?"The maid whispered, "The drug has taken effect. They are getting freaky in there."Melanie shot a sly grin. Her plan worked out perfectly. Then, she cleared her throat and reproached her maid loudly,"I beg your pardon? That must be a lie! How dare you lie to me!"The maid knew what Melanie was trying to pull off and played along. She cowered and said, "It's the truth, Mrs. Page. I heard it from the hotel's staff members. They all said they saw Ms. Walters and Mr. Strauss in—""Hush, you liar!" Melanie then began to slap her maid.Her maid was scared and begged for her mercy. Just like that, the commotion turned the heads of many women in the lobby. Most of the men were busy working in the room.Among the women was Yolanda. She heard the ruckus and came to scold Melanie."Today is my father's birthday. What are you doing here?" Yolanda was angry. No one else had the audacit

Yolanda glowered at the maid, "Do you have any idea what you're talking about?"The maid begged earnestly, "I swear I'm telling the truth, madam."But Yolanda refused to believe what she heard, "Belle and Grayson are deeply in love. Robert is a gentleman. He will not commit adultery."Melanie jumped in and said, "Why don't we go upstairs and find out the truth ourselves?"Yolanda turned to glare at Melanie, "Why? I already said that such affairs were impossible."But Melanie insisted, "Yolanda, you hardly see Belle. Maybe you don't know her at all. Maybe she just pretended to be a sweet girl in front of you. "Whether this is the truth or not, we just have to go up and see with our own eyes. If we don't, the rumors will devour us all. But if Belle is innocent, the rumors will be debunked right away."Yolanda wasn't stupid. She knew that Melanie had set up a trap. With that said, what Melanie suggested was right. The only way to debunk everything was to go up and find out the tru

As soon as the elevator's door closed, the maid knelt and begged for mercy,"I'm so, so sorry, Madam Melanie. I didn't know Mr. Page was inside. I thought it was Mr. Strauss. I was sure that I heard Mr. Strauss's voice. I … I …"Melanie forsook her grace and kicked the maid. She hollered, "You idiot!"All of a sudden, two men approached Melanie and the maid. They said nothing and took the maid away. Both Melanie and the maid recognized those men as Yolanda's bodyguards.Yolanda wanted to apprehend them.The maid was in hysteria. "Save me, Madam Melanie. Save me!"Melanie's face was as white as a sheet. Yolanda slapped Melanie and sent her men to take the maid away. She must have suspected that Melanie was up to something.Melanie panicked. Her life was in danger now, and she had no time to protect her maid. She knew better than to make a scene, so she issued her maid a warning."Yolanda wanted you to explain everything, and you shall do just that. You did nothing wrong anyway.

"Hey! Hey! It's not my fault. We're both victims here. Fortunately, they saw nothing because I covered us in time."Grayson still didn't know why Belle was mad at him. He tried to defend himself, but his explanation was laced with a hint of arrogance. It was as if Belle owed him a thank you.Belle glared at Grayson. Before Grayson could remove the sheet on him, Belle made a run for the dressing room. She grabbed whatever was within her reach, regardless of whether she liked it or not, and covered herself.The red marks on her body were mostly covered. But the ones on her neck were still on public display. The neck and the collarbone alone had seven to eight patches of hickies! Enough to prove how rough Grayson was just now.Belle was flustered and angry. Her face was scarlet. She cursed at Grayson a million times before tying a scarf around her neck. She then bolted out of the dressing room while waving her fists.Her experience today told her that she stood no chance against

The knife was mere inches away from his family jewel! Grayson was too stunned to breathe. He gulped.Just like that, his source of pride wilted in a second. Moments ago, it stood proudly. Now, it retracted back into its shelter.The blade slowly disappeared from his sight. That could only mean that Belle was preparing for the second stab.Grayson lifted his head and gripped Belle's wrist. "Belle, what the fuck are you doing?"Who in their right mind would go for someone's genitalia just because their love-making session was interrupted? That was uncalled for. Did Belle not want it anymore?Belle gritted her teeth and refused to speak. She couldn't pry away Grayson's grip. So she tossed the knife, changed its direction, and aimed at Grayson's wrist.Grayson was freaking out. He immediately let go of Belle.Due to the sudden movement, the sheet on Grayson's body slipped to the floor. Grayson's muscular frame was in Belle's full view. She had seen it before, but she kept looking. I

Belle immediately forgot all about Grayson and ran toward the door. She had to get to Syl Hospital as soon as possible! The room door creaked open, but Belle didn't even spare Sam a glance. She hurried toward the elevator. However, the elevator was still on the first floor, so she rushed to the emergency staircase. Sam stared at her in confusion.Then, his eyes widened in shock when he peered into the room. Grayson was wearing nothing but his underwear, and his face was a mess! There was a long scratch across his face and a large bruise under his eye. It was obviously the result of a punch. Who had scratched and punched him? The answer was so obvious! Had Belle beaten his boss up? Sam gulped. He dared not ask any questions. "Mr. Page, I'll wait for you in the car downstairs." Sam closed the door behind him and left hastily. Meanwhile, Belle rushed down the stairs and left the hotel. She didn't care even when people stared at her. She stood by the road, hailing a taxi

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.

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.

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

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
