Chapter 698 Shocking News

Author: Flora Hopkins
Melanie looked at Yolanda, feeling extremely jealous of her.

Before this, she thought that Belle was from a rural village. So, Belle would be the family's biggest flaw. Any daughter-in-law Melanie found would be much better than Belle.

Now, a seemingly insignificant gift from Belle's family held a value of ten billion dollars. If the family could afford to bestow gifts of such value, it prompted the question of just how wealthy they must be.

Even if she searched the whole of Maltford, she wouldn't be able to find a young lady this rich.

Furthermore, she could discern the looks in the eyes of the other members of the Page family. They appeared eager to gain Belle's favor immediately.

By the looks of it, the power of Alfred's family was getting even stronger.

The more Melanie thought about it, the more emotional she became. Even her blood was boiling. Unable to bear it any longer, she said, "So what if she's rich? She can't stay in the Page family forever.

    Belle looked at Melanie with a smile on her face."Aunt Melanie is telling the truth. Grayson and I indeed have that agreement. When we looked lovey-dovey in front of everyone, we were indeed faking it."There's even something you don't know. Grayson and I have even signed a marriage contract."Everyone was surprised, and they fell silent.When Melanie heard Belle admitting to it, she immediately became spirited."Did you hear that? She said it herself. Even she admitted to it."Belle smiled."When I married him, neither of us was happy about it. Marriage is a significant commitment, and we had never met before, but circumstances forced us to live together. Anyone would be upset about that."When Melanie heard that, she got even more excited."So you're not part of our family at all. You don't even care about us!"Belle said, "Aunt Melanie, you said that there's a time limit to our marriage. I'll admit to that. But I don't want you accusing me of those things."I admit that

    On the way home, Grayson was the one driving, as always.Because of his injury, Finneas forbade him from drinking. So, even if the other family members drank alcohol, Grayson was the only one who didn't drink. So he was able to drive the car.The car had just left Page Residence when Belle spoke up."When I saw how Uncle Kent and his family treated you, I could understand why Lena would treat me like that. Just because you came from the same family doesn't mean that they will treat you well."Grayson said, "Family bonds are a luxury in rich families. Just stop caring so much, and you'll be fine."If they truly wanted to fight Kent's family, they would have started risking their lives a long time ago.Kent was a weak and incompetent man, but he was competitive regardless.He wasn't capable enough to manage Page Corporation. But he insisted on wresting it from Alfred. Later, after someone planted the idea in his mind, he kept trying to harm Grayson.When Grayson was younger, he a

    Grayson stood somewhere nearby, narrowing his eyes as he gazed at them. From time to time, he would take some photos with his phone to record the wonderful time he was experiencing.It had been one year since Belle came to Maltford, but she was only truly elated now. She was as happy as a child.Looking at her, Grayson imagined that she must be similarly happy when she was in the mountains.After coming to Maltford, she did have some happy times, but she had never been so lost in elation as she was now. She was completely immersed in joy.Grayson wished that she could be this happy all the time.He suddenly remembered that she would soon learn what happened back then.

    Belle's heart was racing. She was panicking. She was even struggling with her words. "Y-You were the one who wanted to sign a marriage contract back then.""I was wrong. I was stupid back then, and I didn't know better. Can you give me another chance to court you?"Belle fell silent.Grayson suddenly took a step forward. Belle subconsciously tried to take a step back, but Grayson reached out and pulled her into his arms. He didn't give her a chance to back away.Holding her waist with one hand, he caressed her cheeks with the other. Lowering his gaze at her, he said, "Before I knew you, I never thought I would turn out like this someday."I wish I could be with you 24/7. I don't even want to do anything. I just want to look at you quietly."They all used to say that I'm a workaholic. Other than the necessary appointments, I spent most of my time on work. I was happy even if I worked until late at night."But now, I don't want to work anymore. I only think about you every day."

    Jake was emotionless. "Mr. Page will be fine. You're dismissed, so go home for New Year's.""Huh? We don't have to watch over Mr. Page anymore?""That's right.""What if something happens to him?""Nothing will happen to him. Ms. Walters is around to protect him."The bodyguards were speechless.Scratching his head, the first bodyguard said, "Jake, the way you put it sounds like Mr. Page is an incredibly delicate man who can't even take care of himself. It's like he even needs a woman to protect him."Jake didn't explain too much. He remained emotionless as he repeated, "Go."The bodyguards had no choice but to do as they were told. They left the place.Jake took another glance at Grayson and Belle. Soon, he averted his gaze and disappeared.He had never been in love before, nor had he ever touched a woman. He had been training since he was young, and after growing up, he was always following Grayson.He didn't have a chance to get into contact with women, nor did he want to

    As soon as Belle went down the stairs, Grayson handed her the biggest strawberry in the mix. Belle didn't hold back as she reached out and took it. As she sank her teeth into the strawberry, its soft and fragrant flavor promptly calmed her nerves. "This is truly delicious."Grayson smiled. "If you like it, have some more."With that, he passed Belle another strawberry. Then, he pried open a durian for her.Grayson didn't like foods with intense flavors, but his preference didn't mean anything if Belle liked them. Since Belle liked those foods, he would buy them for her.Hence, the durian made its way boldly into his villa.This was Belle's first time watching the countdown program. She found it quite interesting, and she would laugh from time to time.She ate the fruits Grayson fed her as she watched the countdown program. The awkward emotions from before were gone entirely.Looking at Grayson, who never smiled throughout the show, she asked curiously, "Why aren't you laughing

    At midnight, Belle returned to the bedroom and washed up. Meanwhile, Grayson cleaned up downstairs. After the house was cleaned again, he returned to the bedroom.Belle had already fallen asleep on the bed.Grayson walked over to look at her, his eyes filled with love. He originally planned to stay up with her, but she went to sleep too early.Despite his complaints, his movements were remarkably gentle. After pulling the blanket over Belle and making sure she was covered, he went to the bathroom.Perhaps because Belle's handmade ointment was too effective, or maybe he was just too young and full of vigor, his body healed quickly. His wound had healed entirely, and even the pain was gone now.But to ensure he could recover as soon as possible, Grayson didn't dare let his wound come into contact with water. He only did some simple wiping.He had just gotten back into bed when Belle turned around, nestling in his arms.They had slept together for so long that she had gotten used t

"Aren't we supposed to visit Mr. Page Senior today?""Yes.""Then I'm not going back to sleep.""Alright, go and get washed up. I'll make breakfast.""You even know how to make breakfast?""Are you underestimating your husband?"Belle said, "I was just asking?"Smiling, Grayson said, "Just wait.

    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.

    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
