"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. The person I ordered to buy didn't manage
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. "I can examine him to see if there are any underlyi
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 immediately asked, "The diffuser was sent together with the sachet? Why didn't I see you using it before?""There wasn't a need to before.""There's a need now, though?""Yes.""Why?"Grayson didn't answer her. Instead, he placed the reed diffuser back onto the bedside table.Looking at the clock on the wall, Grayson furrowed his eyebrows. "It's already 6:00 pm?"Belle nodded. "What do you think? Meredith said you've been sleeping for the entire day and that she couldn't even wake you up. What kind of sedative is this? It wouldn't happen to be poison, would it?"Grayson glared at her and sat up. He wanted to go to the bathroom but could barely stand on his two feet. His heart was palpitating, and he felt dizzy. Belle quickly held him up when she saw that. "I think you're sick. You should call the miracle doctor and ask. There's no way a healthy person would wake up in this state," she said.Belle was well aware of his current condition. She just wanted to urge Grayson
Soon, Simon drove over. When he saw Belle, he quickly asked, "Are you okay, Ms. Walters? What happened?"Belle replied, "I'm fine. Nothing happened to me. It's Grayson.""Grayson? What happened to him?"Belle replied, "He got poisoned."Simon widened his eyes. "Poisoned? Is it serious?"Belle answered, "It's serious. However, it's not fatal."Simon's brows were knitted tightly. "Who poisoned him? Besides, he's such a careful person. Why would he get poisoned?"Belle said, "The scented sachet he uses contains deadly poison."Simon's eyes widened. "What did you say?"Belle didn't answer him.She didn't hide it from Simon. He was there when she saved Patrick. Simon already knew about her skills.Furthermore, Simon was compassionate. He regarded Grayson as his brother. He would keep this issue entirely confidential, sharing it with no one.Simon remained in a state of disbelief. "How is this possible? Grandma had examined the scented sachet previously. She would have unquesti
In the master bedroom on the second floor, Grayson was still lying in bed. When he saw Belle leading Simon inside, he was quite surprised. "Why did he come here?"Belle replied, "I asked him to come. I'm scared you'll die. You're so sick."Grayson pursed his lips. "You'll be happy if I die!"Belle replied, "What for? How am I going to get a divorce if you die? Even if you die, you can't die now."Pursing his lips, Grayson glared at her. "I'm fine," he told Simon.Simon looked serious. "Let me examine you.."Approximately ten minutes later, Simon followed Belle's instructions and remarked, "It doesn't seem to be a severe issue, but you should still consider taking some medication."Grayson shook his head. "No need. Dr. Cahill said that there's no need to take any medication."Belle rolled her eyes. She had a hunch that he might have been infatuated with the doctor, likely charmed by her beauty.Belle shot Simon a glance. Simon then began, "I'll give you some health supplements.
