Grayson had already arrived at the hospital when Simon got back. He was smoking in his car.He asked Simon to get in and did not allow him to be at the scene. He was worried that Simon would get attacked by the victims' families if he showed himself.He wasn't good at comforting others. However, he couldn't help but frown when he saw Simon in low spirits. He was evidently worried about him.He passed Simon a cigarette and said, "Sam is already investigating what happened."Simon took the cigarette and lit it. "Get some rest at home. You don't have to deal with this," he said."But can you deal with it yourself?"Simon sighed helplessly and made a call on his phone. He told his assistant what Dorothy had told him and asked his subordinates to be on standby. Then, he hung up and said, "I was at my grandma's. She told me to just cooperate with the police. Syl Hospital will be closed down."Grayson frowned and said, "The Sylvester family will be ruined if you do nothing at this po
Melanie still denied it. "I didn't! I really didn't…"Yolanda pursed her lips and brought two people forward. One of them was a girl who worked at a nightclub, and another was the waiter who had served Belle's drink.She even played the surveillance camera footage of Melanie buying the aphrodisiac and the part where she whispered with her maid after her maid came downstairs.There was solid evidence to prove Melanie's evil scheme! Melanie was left defenseless.Her husband, Kent Page, was also left tongue-tied, eyes wide in disbelief. Silence enveloped the room for a moment before Finneas slammed his hand on the table in a fit of anger.Melanie and Kent were so terrified that they nearly peed their pants. Finneas breathed in deeply with a look of disappointment on his face.He did not raise a hand at them but instantly put all of Melanie's shares under Belle's name. Melanie and Kent were shocked out of their wits!This punishment was way more painful than any other. It felt like
That night, Grayson and Belle arrived home at almost the same time. Grayson had taken off his coat and was about to drink water in the kitchen when Belle walked in. They went blank for a moment when they saw each other and frowned. They were focused on the Sylvester family's issues during the day and hadn't bothered each other. They weren't very pleased to be face to face with each other now. Belle looked away first and changed into house slippers. She was no longer as angry as she had been at the hotel. She no longer felt like beating him up or castrating him. She only wanted to take a shower and lie down to think the Sylvester family's case over. She was slightly displeased because she still wasn't able to find out anything about the new virus Dorothy had told her about.She would have spent the night at the place she rented if she hadn't promised Finneas not to spend the night with Grayson separately. She wouldn't have come home till morning because she was still doing rese
It was nighttime, but the lights in Sanchez Residence were still on.Phil had looked into Belle's background, including her birth information.Based on the information, she was born in a small village in Fallwood's suburbs. Her parents were local farmers.She had been living there before she turned 18 years old. A mudslide happened two years ago, destroying half of the village and resulting in massive casualties.Belle's parents passed away due to the mudslide.Noah brought her away from the saddening place and settled in Bridgeview Village, which was in Maltford.He had some medical knowledge. He farmed and treated patients for a living. They were poor, so Belle wasn't sent to school.Based on the information, Belle had nothing to do with the Aspen family. It was impossible that she was that child!However, Phil frowned as he looked at an old photo.The side profile of the woman in the photo was very blurry. Still, he could tell that she was very pretty.Belle resembled her
Meanwhile, the lights in Strauss Residence were still on.Tom had found out the same information Phil had. Tom finished reading it.Narrowing his eyes, he sat before his desk and was absorbed in his thoughts.The butler said softly, "Sir, are you still suspecting that Ms. Walters has something to do with the Aspen family?""Yeah. She resembles Wendy so much."The butler said, "But based on the information we received, it seems like she has nothing to do with them.""What you see isn't necessarily the truth, let alone this information. It could be forged."Tom continued, "If I'm the only person suspecting it, it could be my eyesight problem. But Phil, that old chap, is suspecting the same thing too. That means something's off about Belle.""But … If that's the case, how could Mr. Page Senior not know about it? He's a vigilant man. It's not like he is not aware of the Aspen family's influence. Why would he keep her by his side? It's too dangerous!"Tom responded, "Only people wh
A masked man suddenly appeared beside Noah in a shabby house deep in the mountains.Noah was grinding medicine. He asked without raising his head, "Is everything ready?""Yes. The Sanchez and Strauss families received information that you and Ms. Belle come from a suburb in Fallwood."Noah nodded.The masked man added, "But Mr. Page will get suspicious. He has been looking into it for quite some time and hasn't found any leads. Now that he had suddenly uncovered your and Ms. Belle's origin, he might become suspicious about it."Noah wasn't bothered by that. "Don't be bothered by Grayson. It's a matter of time before he finds out about the whole story."The masked man said, "It won't be easy to fool Phil and Tom. Since they've grown suspicious about it, they will surely investigate it further. "The Sanchez and Strauss families have long been acquaintances. We can't say they're our allies or enemies, but the Pages are definitely our enemy. I'm afraid that it will disadvantage Ms.
Before Grayson could come up with a solution, his phone rang. It was a call from Henry.Henry yelled at the phone as soon as the line got through, "Mr. Page, something's strange! The Sanchez and Strauss families investigated Ms. Walters today."Grayson slightly frowned. "Is it Xenia and Robert?"Xenia and Robert were the first to cross his mind because they were acquainted with Belle."No, it's Phil and Tom," said Henry.Grayson was surprised.Phil Sanchez and Tom Strauss were the heads of their families. They held a certain level of influence and power in Maltford. Something was indeed off since they were investigating Belle.It was reasonable for others to be curious about her because Grayson, the Page family's successor, would marry a woman from the countryside.However, why did Phil and Tom investigate her today? They ought to have done it long ago.As an afterthought, Grayson asked, "Have they investigated Belle before this?"Henry replied, "They did in the beginning, bu
Belle was lying in bed, reading articles about the Sylvester family.News about the explosion that happened in Syl Hospital yesterday went viral online. The top trending articles were all about the Sylvester family.Everyone voiced out their speculations, flooding the comment section.A lot of people were guessing that the Sylvesters plotted the explosion to eliminate the records of those patients who died due to the sudden accident. Thus, they claimed that Syl Hospital was an illegal organization that ran illegal organ trades, human experiments, and other horrifying deeds. Syl Hospital was now closed as it was under investigation by various executive branches.Belle was annoyed reading those articles because she knew what kind of person Dorothy was.Those people twisted the truth and framed a good person!She didn't know what their objective was from doing this. It was as though slandering the Sylvesters could make them appear righteous.Belle felt the urge to turn the comm
