After finding the sachet, Belle took a whiff of it. There wasn't anything off about it.But when she opened the sachet, she almost fainted from the smell of medicine.Belle hastily closed her eyes, frowning as she took time to recover herself. Then, she opened her eyes. Enduring the discomfort, she shook out all the contents of the sachet.As she studied it earnestly, her frown deepened. She found that there was indeed a deadly poison among the mix in the sachet! Belle was stunned.She couldn't believe it. With a grave look on her face, she studied it again for a longer while. In the end, she was sure that her findings were correct. There was indeed a deadly poison in this sachet!It was also the highly toxic sort. A person could turn powerless after using it for only a month!Belle looked in disbelief at the sachet in front of her. This wasn't some miracle drug. Instead, it was a deadly poison that could kill!That would explain why her sleep was abnormal after the sachet appea
"Ms. Walters, where are you?" Meredith's voice sounded from the door.Belle was stunned. She didn't expect Meredith to come over at that moment.She feared that Meredith would notice that she had touched Grayson's sachet. Then, Meredith might tell Grayson about it when he came back. So, Belle hastily put away the sachet as she found it.Belle had just finished putting it away when the door opened. Meredith walked in.Belle hastily pretended to be sleeping. Rubbing her eyes, she asked, "Are you looking for me?"Meredith was anxious when she saw Belle. She hastily approached Belle, saying, "Why are you here? You frightened me. I thought you had gone missing."As Meredith spoke, she helped Belle up. She said, "Mr. Page called me and said he will return late tonight. He wants me to come over and keep you company."Upon hearing that, an odd look flashed across Belle's face.If she hadn't discovered the sachet, she would have caused trouble for Grayson. She would tell him to come bac
In Grayson's eyes, Lena was a miracle doctor!If Lena could cure Belle, Grayson's days would get much better.Hence, Grayson took out his phone again and called Lena.Lena was living in a small house in an urban village. The sky hadn't turned dark yet, but her room was already shrouded in darkness.She liked dark surroundings, so she would draw the curtains even during the day. She felt more secure that way.Her phone screen lit up, turning into the house's only light source.Frowning, Lena took her phone and glanced at it. When she saw that it was a call from Grayson, she immediately sat up.She thought the sachet stimulated Grayson too much, so she got very emotional. After picking up the call, she asked, "Do you feel any discomfort, Mr. Page?"Grayson said, "Sorry for bothering you. I'm not the one feeling discomfort. It's my wife."Lena instantly frowned. An upset look flashed across her eyes, but still, she asked calmly, "What happened to your wife?""She fell from the s
Meredith called Belle downstairs for dinner. Belle pondered while she ate.Before dinner was over, Grayson suddenly came back early.Belle was stunned as she looked at him.He said he would be returning later, but he came back before 6:00 pm! She couldn't escape if he was back already.Belle was deeply troubled.She glared at Grayson unhappily. Grayson also glared at her, upset.He was forced to return because he was bombarded by calls from Finneas and Yolanda!Finneas said, "Grayson, be good and listen to me. Don't think about work for now. Just stay at home and focus on keeping Belle company. You can only return to the company when Belle has recovered. This is an order!"Yolanda said, "Grayson, you scoundrel! Belle is still sick, so how can you leave her alone at home? She's your wife, so you should take responsibility for her and take good care of her. Go home right now!"Alfred said, "True love is revealed in the face of trouble. Maybe Belle will be touched after this inci
The intensity in Grayson's gaze shifted in the blink of an eye!He frowned deeply, looking at her feet, hooking at his legs. He gulped.In his eyes, Belle was seducing him!He had always desired Belle's body. So, he was completely vulnerable to her seductions. He was very sober then, and he knew he shouldn't humor her.But she was using her feet to toy with him. He couldn't possibly resist that!Grayson gulped in secret as he lowered his gaze at Belle's feet.Belle had dainty feet and seemed to be a size six at most. They were slender, long, and very fair as well. Those feet probably hadn't seen much sun, so they were extremely fair.They were like high-quality porcelain dolls. A mere glimpse of them stirred a strong desire in Grayson. He wanted to own them!Grayson didn't know what Belle was trying to do. If she were truly out of her mind, she wouldn't have seduced him in such an obvious way.He didn't know why she wanted to seduce him, either. She didn't like him, after all.
"Are you alright, Ms. Walters? Don't hold it against Mr. Page. He likes you, so that's why he … He doesn't fancy normal women. Many women want to seduce him, but he only has desires toward you."This is proof that he loves you."Standing at the side, Meredith spoke on Grayson's behalf.She thought that Grayson truly couldn't endure it, so he was forcing himself on Belle.Belle said, "I am a generous person. I won't hold it against jerks like him!"When Meredith heard the word "jerk", she was speechless.Belle chatted briefly with Meredith. After sending Meredith away, she immediately began her plan to escape.She knew that Grayson's bodyguards were all over the place. If she sneaked out, she would be found out. So, she decided just to walk out. Then, she would find a chance to lose herself in the crowd!She didn't mind if Grayson knew that she had run out. It was fine as long as he didn't know where she went or what she did.So, Belle changed into sportswear that she could mov
Belle looked at the surveillance footage, puzzled.She didn't think that any weird smell would come from her house.She had only stored some herbs here, but her yard was filled with various plants. They should be enough to cover the smell of herbs so normal people wouldn't even be able to smell them.But this lady had smelled it. Or, the weird smell she mentioned wasn't herbs at all.Judging by the surveillance footage, the lady didn't have ill intentions. Instead, she had gotten into Belle's yard out of concern.Still, Belle felt that something was off.But she couldn't put her finger on it.Belle watched the video again. In the video, the lady never once looked at the surveillance camera.She could either be an ordinary woman who was unaware of the surveillance camera or an extraordinary one who feigned ignorance about its presence. Belle had discreetly concealed the camera in a concealed location, and Belle's guess was leaning toward the latter.After all, if she were an
Ava said, "It was the smell of something burning, but it did not come from your house. It was coming from your neighbor's. Their house caught on fire today."That answered Belle's question. She had gone over when she heard Ava mention the weird smell in the video. She didn't know where the smell could be coming from, but the person involved had come to explain. Ava said, "I saw your light on, so I came over to tell you that I trespassed into your yard. I was afraid you would misunderstand. I didn't touch anything after I went in. Really."Belle nodded and said, "It's fine."Ava smiled and said, "You look very young. You must be a student."Belle's gaze sharpened. Was Ava here to dig for information?"No. I finished school a long time ago. I'm working now," said Belle."I see. What's your occupation?""I do many things. I run errands and do cleaning work. Is there anything else you want to talk to me about? If not, I'll shower and go to bed."Sensing that Belle was dismissin
