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
"You boasted about it, didn't you?" asked Grayson with displeasure. If Belle had really wanted to eat it, then she would definitely have taken the chance to eat it the night before. He couldn't have done anything even if she ate it. June denied it. "I didn't. I didn't even say a word, but she came to me and snatched the pill away. She even ate it right in front of me …"Grayson was annoyed. "Go home. I'll find a way to buy you another one."June finally stopped crying, but she said in a miserable tone, "Grayson, that bitch …""Leave!" Grayson said impatiently.June dared not say another word. She bit her lip and left. Grayson massaged his temples and called Sam. "Ask around and find out where I can buy more frostle pills!"He still had one pill left, but it was for his mother. He wouldn't give it to June.Meanwhile, Belle arrived at the place she rented. She was in a bad mood. She thought she was already very kind by not beating June and her mother up when they tried to kil
Grayson thought Belle was nervous when she didn't speak. "My parents are very friendly, so don't worry. You have to meet your in-laws sooner or later anyway," he said. Belle got her senses back and glared at him. "I'm not nervous at all!" Then, she covered herself with the blanket and turned away from him. Grayson saw no sign of Belle the next day when he woke up. How odd! She always still slept like a log every time he woke up.He couldn't help but call Belle when she still wasn't home at 10:00 am. It was almost time for them to go to his grandfather's house."Where are you?" he asked."It's none of your business!"Couldn't Belle speak to him nicely? Grayson said, "Haven't I told you last night that we have to go home for a family meal today?""I know. It's not time yet, is it?""It's already 10 o'clock!" "Then you go first. I'll be there shortly," said Belle."No. We're going together!""Why? You're so clingy."Grayson's expression darkened as he said, "Enough with y
Melanie Stevens couldn't help saying, "It's almost eleven o'clock. Why haven't Grayson and Belle arrived yet? Are they not planning to come?"Yolanda Quigley, Grayson's mother, sat among the women. Smiling, she seemed gentle, but she exuded a strong presence. She displayed the demeanor of the head of the household."Since Grason said he's coming, he will come. It's not even lunchtime yet. Are you hungry already?" Melanie smiled. "I'm not hungry. I'm just a little impatient. Grayson has been married for so long, but we haven't even met Belle yet. We've heard that she is as beautiful as a flower. We all want to meet her."Others chimed in with agreement. A distant relative said, "We've heard that Grayson got married. But since he didn't hold a wedding ceremony, we didn't dare to bring gifts to congratulate him. "Now that we're here today, Yolanda, don't mind me asking. Who is this Belle? How did she luck out and end up marrying Grayson?"Yolanda smiled knowingly. She understood t
