Ingrid immediately shut her down.

"Absolutely not. If anything were to go wrong, we would be exposed! It's not worth it to kill her with our own livelihood. There has to be a better way where we can get the best of both worlds!"

"What idea do you have left anyway? It takes a long time to come up with a new idea. I can't wait any longer.

"I don't want to wait even a single day more. I want her to die as soon as possible. The more miserable, the better!"

June's eyes turned red, reflecting her ruthlessness.

Ingrid frowned and kept silent for a while.

"Alright, alright. Stop worrying about Belle. You only have to focus on Grayson. Although our plan failed, at least we were not exposed.

"Grayson and the others haven't suspected us yet. You should get going for your press conference. I want to calm down for now."

June pouted and left to do her makeup.

At this moment, the internet was exploding with discussions.

June had been absent from the public eye for a considerable period. H

    And because Belle said that she was June's backer, she became the center of attention! The atmosphere became even more heated, and the reporters gossiped among themselves. "Isn't June's sugar daddy a guy? Why is it a woman?""I know, right? June just said that her sugar daddy was wooing her. Could they be … lesbians?" "Huh? It can't be. June said that her sugar daddy is a guy!""Then who exactly is that? What's going on?"The crowd was in an uproar. June also widened her eyes in shock. "It's … you?"If she hadn't recognized Belle's voice, she would never have associated this person with Belle! In her memory, Belle always wore sportswear and tied her hair in a ponytail. She didn't wear any jewelry. She always dressed like some dull student. Meanwhile, the girl she was looking at was decked out in luxury brands and jewelry. She looked like a scioness and a girl boss with her charisma!June bit her lip and switched off her microphone. She lowered her voice and hissed through

    June bawled her eyes out. "You'll regret treating me this way!""If he thinks I'm in the wrong, he can talk to me. I would agree to a divorce any day. However, it's up to us whether to separate. If you dare interfere with my life again, I'll make you regret it!"Belle left with her high heels clicking loudly against the floor. The crowd went into an uproar. News of June being someone's mistress immediately spread like wildfire. Grayson was going over some documents in his office when Sam came in to tell him what happened. Grayson couldn't believe his ears until he watched a livestream of the press conference. He was very shocked. He was also so used to seeing Belle's gentle and innocent side that he was surprised to see this domineering side of her! She was the direct opposite of her usual self! He frowned once the shock passed. Belle had ruined June's acting career with this whole fiasco. June was going to fall from fame and become a nobody. His peace would be disrupted ag

    Grayson flung the phone at June and said, "Explain this!" June had just stood up, but her knees buckled, and she fell again. "I … I … I don't know what to say. I …"Grayson looked furious. "I'm giving you one last chance to explain yourself!" He did not raise his voice, but his tone was threatening. June was so scared that she trembled. " I… I … I never thought I would hurt her. I'm innocent …" She denied everything. "How dare you lie!" Grayson burst into rage. Even Belle raised her head to look at him.June was so terrified that she dared not say another word. She wept on the floor, and her sobs carried through the entire house.Belle pursed her lips and said to Grayson, "I think you should talk to her mother. She would know more." June was an idiot. Everything must have been Ingrid's idea. Ingrid's plan was perfect because she got away with everything, even hurting Belle.June was obviously not the mastermind. She wasn't that smart! Grayson frowned and phoned Ingrid, tell

    Grayson couldn't stand June's crying. He yelled, "Shut up!" He didn't even spare her a glance. He said to Ingrid, "Take her home. She can't stay in the country anymore. I'll make arrangements for you two to leave the country."June widened her eyes and said, "I'm not going! I won't leave the country!"She couldn't make Grayson love her even when she was so close to him. If she left the country, she would lose all chance of being with him."I won't go abroad no matter what!" June sobbed and threw a tantrum like a madwoman. When Ingrid noticed veins bulging against Grayson's temple, she quickly dragged June off. Peace finally returned. Grayson and Belle were the only ones left in the living room. Grayson was frowning, and he looked angry.Belle also looked displeased while she chewed on her potato chips and glared at him. Grayson thought she looked like she wanted to punch him. He knew he was at fault, so he said, "I'll let today's incident go. You …""No! You can't let it g

    One day, Belle caught wind of a new supplement called frostle pills going around Maltford. It had very good anti-aging and beautifying effects.Women who ate it looked ten years younger. The supplement was all the rage in the circle of wealthy women. Everybody wanted it, but the pill was very rare. Even money couldn't buy it! Belle wondered if it was really so magical. What herbs was the supplement made of? If Belle could manufacture the supplement, wouldn't she become filthy rich? Hence, she joined the people who were nuts for the supplement. They wanted it for its effects, but she wanted to study its formula.That day, the biggest auction house in Maltford announced that they would be auctioning two frostle pills three days later. When Belle heard the news, she immediately started preparing for the auction. She would win the auction no matter what. On the day itself, she dressed up elegantly and arrived at the auction. The crowd mostly consisted of wealthy women decked

    "Fifty million? My goodness, did I hear that correctly? Did someone bid fifty million dollars for the frostle pill?""Is that for real? Who is that guy in the booth? I'm no match for him!" "The man must be buying it for his wife or lover. It must be true love!"All the women felt jealous. Their husbands had a net worth of millions, but they would never spend fifty million to buy an anti-aging pill for them.That man must be the best in the world! Even the host was stunned for a few seconds.Then, he looked up at the second floor excitedly. "Sir, I beg your pardon, but are you bidding fifty million for this frostle pill?""Yes. One hundred million for both of them," said the man. Everybody's jaws dropped. The host stuttered, "Sure, sure, no problem. One hundred million … for both …"Belle stared up at the second floor with wide eyes. She recognized Grayson's voice, and she couldn't help but curse him out under her breath.She knew better than anyone that Grayson wasn't buying

    Belle jumped in fright! Her hand shook, and the crystal pendant fell to the floor. Before she could pick it up, Grayson had rushed to her and started throwing hands without a word.Belle quickly dodged a hit and cursed him out under her breath. She didn't want him to catch her, so her plan was to get away. She would find another chance to research the frostle pill's formula. However, Grayson was obviously not planning to let her get away. He attacked her fiercely and tried to capture her. Belle fought back, but she couldn't find a chance to escape. She was pissed off yet surprised because she didn't think a businessman could be so skilled at fighting. She had underestimated him!In the middle of the fight, Grayson suddenly said, "Belle?" Belle's eyes widened. How could he tell that it was her when the room was so dark?Belle said in a higher pitch, "Belle? Who's Belle?"Grayson frowned when her voice sounded off. Although it was very dark, he thought the other person's move

    Belle glared at him and said hastily, "In your dreams. I just lost my balance! I found out that you spent a hundred million on two frostle pills at an auction today, so I wanted to take a look at them."Grayson stared at Belle for a few seconds. She didn't look like she was lying. "You're still young. The pills won't be very effective on you anyway," he said. "I know. I don't want them. I just wanted to take a look."Grayson was silent for a moment before opening a small box on the desk. He took out the pills and tossed them to her. "Look all you want."Belle couldn't believe where he kept those precious pills. She had expected him to keep them in the safe, so she had gone straight for the safe earlier.What a mistake! She didn't know the way rich people did things that well, after all. Grayson sat down behind his desk and lit a cigarette. "You could have just told me if you wanted to see them. Why did you have to sneak around?"Belle pouted and ignored him. She opened the b

    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
