Grayson stared at Belle for a while. She didn't seem to be lying, so he believed her.

He asked again, "Are you skilled at using poison?"

Belle immediately became cautious and asked, "Who told you that?"

Seeing her wariness, Grayson became more suspicious. "Last night on the mountain, you used poison against those people."

Belle's lips twitched as she lied, "That was something my grandfather gave me for self-defense. Didn't I tell you that my grandfather likes to experiment with poisons?"

Grayson continued to scrutinize Belle, only partially believing her words.

Belle repeated, "If you don't believe me, you can ask my grandfather."

At that moment, Grayson's phone rang. It was a call from Sam.

He was about to reach for the phone, but Belle grabbed his wrist and checked his pulse.

Grayson didn't know what she was doing and frowned. "What are you doing?"

Belle paused for a few seconds before letting go of him. She then lied, "I must have made a mistake. I thought you were going t

    Seizing the opportunity, the maid spoke in praise of Grayson. She said, "A woman's greatest joy is to find a good man. "If your relationship with Mr. Page becomes more stable, he will undoubtedly treat you well. Mr. Page is genuinely a good person. If you let him slip away, you'll undoubtedly regret it."Belle's lips twitched. Was the maid trying to make her like Grayson?In reality, Belle didn't think Grayson was a bad person. It was just that she didn't like him. Plus, she hadn't even thought about dating. At just 19 years old, she was still too young!Belle said, "Can't you see that I don't like him, and he doesn't like me either?"The maid said, "I don't know if you like him or not, but Mr. Page treats you differently from others.""In what way?""It's hard for me to say, but Mr. Page treats you differently from other women. He indulges you and has more patience with you."Belle wasn't sure about that. In her eyes, Grayson was not a villain, but he was still a scumbag for

    Just as Grayson was about to let Belle inside, Yolanda's voice sounded again. "What is he doing inside? Belle, get out of the way. Let me call out to him!"After that, Yolanda started to pound on the door with such force that it was about to fall apart. "Grayson! What are you doing inside? Didn't you hear Belle knocking? I will go inside if you don't open the door!"Grayson furrowed his eyebrows.No wonder Belle had suddenly become so obedient and gentle. It was because Yolanda was here!Belle had the habit of behaving docile in front of his parents.In reality, she was the complete opposite before him.Seeing that the door was about to fall apart, he opened the door with a darkened expression. "The door is about to break."Yolanda screamed, "Well, that's the only way for you to respond. Belle had already called you so many times! Belle is such a patient person. If it were me, I would have opened the door, kicked you, and asked if you've gone deaf!"Grayson couldn't help but

    Grayson narrowed his eyes. He finally understood why everyone was staring at him like that. It appeared that everyone was deceived by Belle's façade, unaware that she was merely pretending!Grayson sneered inwardly. He turned to look at Belle. He wondered how her response would be in his presence. Belle was so awkward that she didn't know what to do. She forced herself to smile. If she knew this would happen, she wouldn't have lied. Now, she was stuck in such an awkward situation.Certainly, one had to bear the consequences of the falsehoods they uttered.Finneas thought Belle was reluctant to talk as Grayson was around. "Don't be scared, Belle. He won't dare to do anything to you. I'm here. Just say whatever you've endured from him. I'll help you," he said.The usually quiet Alfred also spoke. "That's right. Go ahead and speak your mind. We'll avenge you!"Belle was rendered speechless.Sitting on the sofa, she smiled awkwardly while shooting glances at Grayson. She tried to t

    "Belle!" Grayson roared at her.Immediately, Yolanda scolded him, "Why are you yelling? Are you trying to see who has the loudest voice?"Grayson wondered if he was really her son.Grayson tried to be patient. "Don't listen to Belle's nonsense. She …""Grayson, tell Grandpa the truth. Had Belle been sleeping on the bed every day before she pretended to be crazy?" Finneas asked.Grayson replied truthfully, "No, but we had discussed this in advance …"However, he had been cut off before he could even finish his sentence. He didn't have the chance to talk at all later on.Finneas, Yolanda, and Alfred yelled at him."Discuss? With your lousy temper, I bet you didn't discuss anything with her! There's no way Belle can object when you already told her to sleep on the sofa! "Belle is your wife, you know. Plus, she's still young and growing. How could you bear for her to sleep on the sofa? You …""You should vent your anger elsewhere and not on your wife! Who told you to treat your

    When Meredith saw Belle leaving, she couldn't help but secretly laugh after glancing at Grayson.It was obvious Grayson liked Belle. After all, he didn't lose his temper even when he had been misunderstood. Although Meredith was old, she knew Grayson the best. After all, Grayson had spent more time with Meredith than his own mother.Based on Meredith's memories, Grayson had never been so indulgent with other women.If Xenia were in Belle's spot today, Grayson would have made her cry from the start. He wouldn't pay any heed even if Finneas and the others protected her.Meredith was secretly pleased. She could tell that Grayson had fallen in love with Belle. "Ms. Walters is so cute and likable," she commented.Grayson paused for a moment before replying, "Which part of her is adorable and likable?"Meredith asked with a smile, "You don't know?"Grayson replied, "Of course, I don't know. How would I?"Meredith grinned. "I'll head back to work now."Grayson was left there confus

    Meanwhile, Belle had set up a meeting with Robert at the same location where they had previously met.As she left her home, she hastily arranged to meet with Robert. She needed those herbs urgently. Grayson's condition was deteriorating rapidly, and she couldn't afford to wait any longer. She needed to swiftly replace the poison in the scented sachet with the herbs!They met half an hour later.Robert was wearing a high-necked sweater layered with a mid-length overcoat. He looked handsome and charming. As soon as they met, he took out some herbs and said to Belle, "Take a look and see if these are the right ones. I'll go back and buy the correct ones if they aren't.'"Belle quickly opened the bag and checked. "They are correct. I didn't expect you would be able to find these. I was still thinking about what could be a good substitute if you couldn't find them."Robert glanced at the herbs and said, "Scott bought them.""Scott?""Yes.

    Belle went silent upon hearing that. She didn't dare to say that Grayson was the one who had insomnia. After all, this was Grayson's private affairs. It was inappropriate for her to talk about it behind his back.Thus, she replied, "It's for someone else. Not me."Robert knew that Belle was knowledgeable in medicine. Thus, he didn't think much or ask about it.He replied, "Feel free to seek me out if you come across any difficulties in the future."Belle was very grateful. "Okay. I'll definitely help you if you need something from me. Right. How's your younger brother?""He's quite calm. It's just that he refuses to talk."Belle furrowed her brow and replied, "If there are no other symptoms, it's very likely a psychological issue. He might have been severely traumatized and can't overcome his fear. "Spend more time with him, provide encouragement, and give him some time. Of course, let me meet with him if there's a chance.

    The overbearing smell of medicine caused Belle to furrow her eyebrows. She felt even more anxious seeing Grayson in bed. She quickly rushed inside the bedroom.Meredith was also shocked. Meredith was choked by the smell when she followed Belle inside and coughed.Belle stopped her in time, "Don't come inside. Wait outside for now."After shooing Meredith away, Belle even closed the door.She detected the scent of poison in the air and was determined to prevent it from affecting Meredith.Belle hurried over to the bed, where Grayson lay facing upwards with a pale complexion. Belle's immediate response was to extend her hand and assess Grayson's breathing. But abruptly, he seized her wrist! He awoke suddenly and cast a menacing glare in her direction.Belle was taken aback, gazing at him with bated breath, afraid to make a single move. Her initial thought was that Grayson had miraculously returned from the brink of death!Grayson spoke. "What are you doing?"Belle breathed a si

    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.

    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

    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
