Chapter 659 Fury or Sorrow

Author: Flora Hopkins
"I don't know," Noah said. "But I'm guessing it has something to do with the Aspens' genes."

"Their genes?"

"Yes, the Aspens were targeted because of their long lifespans and extremely high IQs," Noah replied, "The long lifespans could have been a result of their environment and various other lifestyle changes, but their high intelligence were a sign of special genetics.

"You could probably tell from Belle herself. Despite her young age, she learns very quickly. It only takes her a very short time to master anything."

Grayson didn't reply.

When he learned that Belle was Henry's junior, he had already known just how smart Belle must be.

It was hard for anyone to excel at a single thing, but she excelled at multiple things. It was unbelievable.

"There are many things that the outside world coveted from the Aspen family. After they were exposed, the entire world was after them," Noah said, "Anyone with the slightest bit of status and power on their hands was scrambling to get the

    Grayson told Noah the truth. "Yes," he said, "I have insomnia, and I used to use her scented sachets as part of my treatment. There was a slow-acting poison in those sachets that caused me to fall sick after a while. Belle saved me."In a low voice, Noah replied, "I know. It's not hard to guess the true intentions of those two. They wanted to use your power to secure their position in Maltford. She probably had her claws deep in Robert, too."You're both the most influential people of your generation, and you two are the only ones who can strike fear into the mysterious families' hearts. You two are also the only ones who pose a direct threat to the mysterious families, which is why Lena chose you two."Noah sighed. "They were certainly struggling these past few years as well. Like Belle, they stayed in the no-man's-land for a long time. The moment they revealed themselves, the mysterious families would go after them. "Lena and her mother must have grown tired of living in the sha

    "Are you in front of my old place right now?" Ginger asked Belle."Yeah.""I'm so sorry, Belle. You went all that way for nothing. Take a taxi over to my new place. I'm still at home and planning to cook lunch later. Come over so we can eat together."Belle agreed and took a taxi to Ginger's house.Gabriel was home as well. When he saw Belle, he greeted her like usual. "Hi, Belle."Belle didn't reply. She just nodded in acknowledgment and looked around at the house and its' rather extravagant design. Without waiting for her to ask, Ginger said, "This house is half furnished. The family had to migrate because of an emergency. So, Gabriel rented it immediately. We really lucked out with this one."Belle didn't know whether the family in question really had left the country, nor was she curious enough to ask. All she cared about was that Ginger seemed to be in good condition.After getting kidnapped, she had to take a few days off to recover from the fright.Since Ginger had jus

    "Back then, there was no such thing as loving freely," Ginger said. "There were only arranged marriages that parents decided for you. It's a blessing to be loved by Mr. Page. You should really take the opportunity."Belle didn't know what to say.However, Ginger suddenly said, "What about you? What do you think about him?"Belle thought about it carefully before saying, "I don't think I like him very much."Ginger's face broke into a smile. "You do like him! You said you 'don't think' you like him, which means that you're not sure. That's a sign that you're starting to fall! If you didn't like him, you would have said just that."Belle was taken aback by Ginger's observation. She actually felt like her argument made sense.Belle couldn't figure out her own feelings toward Grayson. She had never fallen in love before, so she didn't know what being in love felt like.However, she did care about him. She was also aware of how well he treated her.She had even taken the initiative

    When Belle arrived in the ghetto, she didn't feel anything. Even when she walked into the housing area, she felt like everything was perfectly normal. However, she suddenly stopped when she approached the yard of the rented house.The sight of the tightly locked door of the neighboring house made her think of Ava.Ava's figure perfectly matched the picture Henry sent her yesterday.Belle finally realized that Ava was the woman in the picture.She couldn't see the woman's face in the picture Henry sent, but she knew her gut instinct couldn't be wrong.Belle's frown deepened the more she thought about it. She began walking to the yard next door.As she approached, the door swung open from the inside, and out walked Ava. Belle was even more sure that the person from yesterday was Ava when she saw her walking out. Belle's frown deepened even more. Ava clearly hadn't expected Belle to show up. She could tell by Belle's expression that something was wrong and grew alert. With a fal

    After they were at least 50 feet away, Belle finally stopped with a frown. She took a small bottle from her pocket and gave them one pill each.They glanced at each other but ate the pill regardless. They didn't even ask what the pill was for.Lena and Ava could no longer be seen. Belle knew they must have made their escape.Belle felt a bit distraught at letting Lena slip through her grasp.After staring in the direction that Lena had escaped to for a long time, she asked the three men, "Who sent you?"One of them hurriedly replied, "Good day, Ms. Walters. Mr. Page sent us.""Grayson?""Yes, he sent us to protect you."Belle fell silent.After a brief moment, she asked, "You guys are pretty trusting. What if the pill was poison?""We trust you. Even if it were poison, we would still eat it."Belle stared at them in surprise. She could barely say anything at the sight of their solemn expressions. They must had been some of Grayson's most loyal subordinates."I gave you guys

    Grayson nodded. He didn't bring Daniela up or mention the mysterious families. He also didn't mention the phone call he had with Noah.He decided to change the topic. "Why did you rent another house?"He had literally just found out about the house that Belle rented in the ghetto."I didn't want you to know my secret," Belle said honestly. "It was much more convenient to rent a house and work there.""How is the ghetto convenient?""It may be the messy part of town, but it's relatively safe. If it weren't, Lena and Ava wouldn't have also chosen to live there."Grayson didn't argue. Instead, he said, "Now that I know your secret, you don't have to go there anymore. There are plenty of empty rooms in the house. Move everything back here, and if you don't want to be disturbed, I won't even breathe near that room."Belle looked up at Grayson and nodded.She no longer needed to use that house anymore, and now that she directly confronted Lena, it was no longer safe.Rather than wor

    Belle frowned in frustration.She had begun suspecting her connection with Lena since she learned that Lena knew about the Aspens' medicaments. Belle had already been almost certain when she made the call. Yet, she couldn't help but feel disappointed at the verbal confirmation.She had been an orphan ever since she was a young child. Apart from her grandfather, she had no other relatives. She should have been happy to hear about having a cousin, but …"Mrs. Sylvester Senior once said that Lena worked with my mother for a very long time. Lena killed her because of my mom and I, right?"Noah didn't deny anything. After a brief silence, he said, "I'll go to Maltford after the New Year celebrations. You're all grown up now, and there are things you need to know. Take good care of yourself in the meantime. I will tell you everything after the New Year."Belle urgently asked, "Why do I have to wait until after the New Year? Why can't you tell me now? What are you waiting for?"Belle

    After a brief pause, Grayson said, "Since you've figured everything out, you can't let your grandfather down. Before he tells you the whole truth, you can't get too beaten up about it. "Don't overthink and upset yourself. You have to be happy, and we have to keep an eye on Lena. She's definitely keeping an eye on you, too. Your sadness is her happiness."Belle sniffed defiantly. "I won't be sad. I've always known that my background is complicated. I was just curious, that's all. Still, after so long, I'm barely curious anymore. Right now, I'm mostly angry that I couldn't capture Lena today. I really want to kill her!"Belle's tone and expression were both rather childlike.Grayson couldn't help but pat her on the head like he would to a child. "That's further proof that the time isn't ripe yet. Let's wait patiently. She can't escape."Grayson appeared assured that his conviction was accurate.Belle was curious. "Why are you so sure? Do you have a plan?"He shook his head. "We d

    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. She put on a gentle smile as she watched Belle

    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. I'm an only child, and

    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
