Belle was reminded of Lena's scented sachet. She guessed that Grayson's abnormal behavior recently was because he was feeling grateful toward her for saving him.

Although Belle never thought he would feel indebted to her, it was a good thing he was now getting along with her.

While thinking that, Belle was about to say something to Meredith. Suddenly, her phone rang. It was a call from an unknown number.

Belle washed her hands and picked up the call. "Hello?"

Xenia's voice rang in her ears. "Hi, Belle. What are you doing?"

After hearing it was Xenia, Belle flatly said, "Oh. It's you."

Xenia paused for a moment before replying, "Don't you have my phone number saved?"

Belle glanced at her phone again. She was unsure when she had deleted Xenia's contact.

Belle pursed her lips. "Is something the matter?"

Xenia guessed that Belle had deleted her contact. Although the former was quite upset, she tried to be patient.

"It has been a long time since I last saw you. Let's meet up. I w

    After eating dinner, Belle played with Sixteen in the yard. Meanwhile, Grayson looked at them from the corridor.Grayson used to adore Sixteen. Yet, he found it to be annoying right now. Grayson especially wanted to throw it out when it snuggled up to Belle.Seeing that Sixteen was about to lick Belle's cheek, Grayson furrowed his brows. "Sixteen!" he yelled.Sixteen froze and looked at Grayson with widened eyes. It did not dare to make a move."Come over!" Grayson yelled.Sixteen immediately ran over while wagging its tail, even starting to whine. Grayson glared at him through his narrowed eyes. Although Sixteen couldn't talk, it was a clever dog.Thus, Sixteen was now looking at Grayson carefully. It was unsure what it had done wrong.Belle couldn't bear looking at them anymore. "What happened to you? Why are you bullying Sixteen again? You're even bullying a dog now! How shameless of you," she scolded while walking over.Grayson paused for a moment before replying, "It's g

    Belle found it hard to believe. "Is it a trap?" she asked Grayson.Grayson was disgusted. "There's no point for me to trick you.""Why did you give me so much then? Plus, the reason you gave seems a bit far-fetched.""Why?""You gave too much!""I have money, and I'm impulsive. Is there a problem?"Belle was rendered speechless.Belle couldn't rebuke. "Why did I get an extra ten million apart from my reward and the money I originally should have gotten? What's the reason?""My back has been hurting recently, so I want to sleep on the bed. Of course, you don't need to sleep on the sofa. We can draw a line on the bed. You can have most of the bed while I take a small corner. I won't come over."Belle batted her eyelashes. "Ten million just for one night?""Yes."Belle was very tempted. This was money they were talking about!She said, "You have to promise not to touch me, then. I'll cut off your hands if you dare to touch me!""Deal!"After Grayson accepted outrightly, he a

    Phil looked at Xenia as if he was looking at a dumb person.If Belle were really the child from many years ago, she would be extremely capable. The world would be anything but peaceful with her existence!To her, the Sanchez family was nothing! She could mess with them over and over again.However, Phil decided to be patient with Xenia. After all, Xenia didn't know what happened back then. "Don't judge a book by its cover! A country bumpkin may not be who they seem to be."Xenia furrowed her eyebrows. "What do you mean, Grandpa? If she's not a country bumpkin, is she a daughter from a prestigious family?"Xenia had already imagined Belle being a wealthy heiress lost for many years.Phil still had not confirmed Belle's identity yet. He only had suspicions about it and couldn't be completely sure.However, he didn't dare to relax. His attitude toward Belle was akin to how a minister would treat a long-lost prince. Phil would need to ponder if he wanted to support or kill her.P

    Xenia was confused. "Belle's hair? Why do you want her hair?""I need to use it!"Xenia asked, "Grandpa, do you really suspect that she's a daughter of a prestigious family? How could there be such a coincidence in this world?"Phil frowned and said, "It's none of your business. Just remember my words and secretly get a strand of her hair. Don't get caught, or find others to help you. Be smart."Xenia was rendered speechless."Okay. You can go out now. I still need to settle some other matters," Phil shooed her away.Xenia's mouth moved, but no words escaped her lips. She then left the study.After Xenia left, Phil took out a yellowed photograph from his safe. He fell deep in thought while examining it.Actually, Phil wasn't quite sure about the Aspen family's secret. He only knew that it was big and nothing about the details.Yet, this didn't stop him from being obsessed with the Aspen family.The more clueless he was about them, the more he wanted to know about them.Howev

    "It's hard to say. There's a chance it's not because of Belle but Patrick. Well, you and Belle need to be careful no matter what. Right. There's something I need to talk to you about. "I've managed to contact Noah. It turns out Lena is Belle's cousin. Thus, there's a high chance the mother-daughter is the reason behind the Aspen family's downfall!"Grayson furrowed his eyebrows upon hearing that.Grayson called Finneas as he wanted to confirm Lena's identity. As Lena was associated with Phil, Grayson wanted to make sure of her identity before attending the banquet.Grayson treated Lena more like an enemy now that he had confirmed her identity. After all, Lena was Belle's biggest enemy, which meant she was his enemy too!"What did Mr. Walters say?" Grayson asked.Finneas replied, "He wants us not to tell Belle about it. He'll come and talk to her after New Year's."Grayson's frown deepened. This meant that Belle only had two to three months of carefree moments left. "Grayson,

    Belle and Grayson made their way to the banquet after breakfast.Belle thought of something on the way there. She looked at Grayson and said seriously, "Let me ask you one last time. Do you like Xenia?"Sam, who was driving, couldn't help but cough.When Belle asked that, Sam pitied Grayson.Everyone around them could tell that Grayson liked Belle. Yet, Belle was oblivious to it.What was more, she even asked if he liked another woman. Grayson was stuck in such a miserable situation.Sam didn't dare to look at Grayson. Instead, he immediately pressed a switch, raising the partition between the front and back rows to give them some privacy.Grayson looked at Belle both helplessly and angrily. "Belle, are you a pig?" he scolded.Belle didn't feel happy hearing that. "You're the pig! Your entire family … No. You're the only pig in the entire family!"Grayson paused for a moment. "Can't you tell if I like Xenia or not?""I don't think you like her. However, I still need to confir

    Xenia felt anxious. After tossing the phone back to the household servant, she went to the washroom angrily. She felt that Lena was toying with her.She even suspected that Lena liked Grayson. The reason why Lena asked for a collaboration was just to get rid of a love rival.Xenia was thinking of telling Grayson about how Lena asked for a collaboration. That way, Grayson would hate Lena.However, Xenia's phone rang just as she closed the washroom door.When Xenia took out her phone, she saw that it was Lena calling!Xenia was shocked. After all, the number couldn't be reached when she called just now. Yet, the phone number suddenly became active again after one minute. She answered the call in confusion.

I even begged Grandpa to throw off such a fancy banquet for your plan.""There's no reason. Just

    A peculiar look flashed across Xenia's eyes when she heard that. She wanted nothing more than her group of friends to mess with Belle.Although she supported them, she still pretended to be worried."I know you guys are angry. I am, too. I really want to punch Belle when I recall Monica's sticky situation back then. However, her relationship with Grayson … I'm scared you guys will be at a disadvantage. Plus, you guys know how good she is at fighting.""Don't be scared. We won't fight her. There are so many ways to take revenge. Why should we only resort to violence? Let me tell you about our plan. We …"The few women chattered on for some while. Upon hearing that, Xenia was overjoyed. "This is a good plan.""Right? Just sit back and watch. Today's going to be quite a show! I'll make Belle kneel and apologize to me. How dare a country bumpkin like her dare to oppose us. She's really asking for trouble!"While the group of women chattered back and forth, Xenia listened quietly.Co

    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. He felt defeated by the pet dog as he watched Belle and Sixteen skip and hop into the house.Meredith had already finished preparing dinner when they arrived.

    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
