Belle's eyes would instantly glow up with excitement whenever she saw the herb.

Grayson placed the pot of herb next to the bed so that she could easily observe it.

"Let me know if you need anything. I'll be downstairs preparing dinner."

Belle nodded without even looking back up at him.

He was slightly envious of the pot of herb for having her full attention.

But he dismissed his worries as he reassured himself that their actions last night had already sealed the deal that Belle belonged to him.

20 minutes later, Grayson brought dinner upstairs to the bedroom, only to find Belle still staring at the herb.

"Dinner's ready. Stop gawking at the herb already."

He helped her up on the bed and brought over a small table for her convenience.

She continued to stare at the plant as she ate.

Grayson could not help but ask, "What's so interesting about it, anyway?"

Belle replied, "I'm monitoring its growth and health."

"It seems just fine to me."

"You don't understand how precious it

    Belle quickly typed out another message."Thank you for the gift. But why aren't you picking up my calls? Who are you anyway? You should have told us your name at least."Her questions were only met with a curt reply. "Glad you liked it."She stared at the reply in disbelief for a while."Who are you? Have we met? Why did you give me such a precious gift?""It was a gift to make you happy, of course."She continued her pursuit. "How did you know I would be happy with the herb?"There was no reply. Belle waited a while before writing, "Can we meet up?""Of course, but not now. I'm currently busy.""When will you be available?""No idea. I'll contact you again when I am available. Take care of yourself."The mysterious contact ceased responding, even as Belle continued her onslaught of questions.She attempted to call several times, but the calls never got through.Belle subconsciously tried to get off the bed to look up any information about the stranger. As she tried t

    Grayson was visibly jealous as he went through the chat log."You sure it's not Lovy or something?"He was conflicted as he hoped that the mysterious person was simply just Lovy and not Lovy at the same time.He believed it might turn into a competition if the herb did, in fact, originate from Lovy.The case would also be resolved if it turned out to be a harmless prank from someone Belle knew.But he could not shake off the thought that he might have an opponent in his quest for love.Belle shook her head and confidently answered, "There's no way.""How do you know?" Grayson was genuinely curious.She just ignored his question and continued to type on her keyboard.After a while, she furrowed her brows and picked up her phone for another attempt at calling the number. But it was as futile as before. She let out a long sigh and gave up on her pursuit."Well, I can't find anything. I got to wait for them to call me, I guess."Grayson frowned. He then tried to console her.

    Putting away her phone, Ginger was startled by a loud crash accompanied by a woman's screams and Gabriel hissing in pain.Her heart immediately sank, and she ran out to check on things.She saw a group of people looking at Gabriel nervously as he held onto his bloody head.On the ground were shards of a glass bottle.Ginger's eyes widened from shock."Gabe! What happened? You're bleeding!"Gabriel tried to console the pale-faced Ginger. "I'm fine, Ginger.""You're not! You're bleeding! Did someone smash you with a glass bottle? Is your head bleeding?""No, my head is unharmed."She checked his head as he put his hand away and was relieved to find it unharmed.She looked down at his bleeding hand, which had taken the brunt of the attack.She was horrified to find blood flowing down his hand.Ginger began to tear up and tried to bring Gabriel out of the house but was blocked by a man."You're not going anywhere until we come to an agreement!"She was furious.

    Although Ginger was afraid of Roger, Gabriel had no reason to be scared of him.Gabriel stood beside Ginger. The wound on his hand was still bleeding. He frowned as he stared at all the enemies before him. His expression was grim. It was as if he had already decided to kill all of them.As he was about to speak up, Ginger suddenly picked up a big shard of glass from the floor and pointed at her uncle's family."Get the fuck out of here! I'll fuck all of you up if that's the last thing I will ever do! Come and find out if you want!"Harrison was frightened. "Are you crazy, Ginger? How dare you point a weapon against your seniors? Where are your manners?""I said, fuck off! Get the hell out if you don't want to die!" Ginger went into a frenzy and began shouting at them.She continued to shout at them while swinging the shard around as she made her exit.It was a complete shift from her usual gentle and meek personality.Harrison was terrified by her sudden change and subconscio

    Harrison and his family were blocking the clinic's entrance. When they saw Ginger and Gabriel coming out, they started shouting."You ungrateful woman! What right do you have to inherit my brother's house? They worked so hard to raise you, and you moved out as soon as you could get the chance to!"You never treated them right when they were alive, but now that they were gone, you came back just to get his property!"You shameless and ungrateful woman! Do you even have any conscience? Everyone, come and look at this evil wench! When her parents were alive, she wanted to cut off ties with them."Now that her parents are dead, she came back to fight for their house! We were the ones who forked out money to build the house too …"Taking advantage of their seniority, Harrison and his wife insulted Ginger and twisted the truth. Soon, many passersby were attracted to the scene.Looking at Ginger, they whispered about her and pointed fingers at her.Gabriel frowned deeply as the murdero

    The policeman looked at Ginger and then at Harrison and his family. The policeman asked Ginger, "What's the matter here?"Ginger said, "I'm defending myself. If I don't scare them with a knife, they'll only treat me even worse. Look at my brother's hand. They were the ones who injured his hand."The policeman glanced at Gabriel's hand. He frowned a little and then asked Ginger, "You were the one who called the police?""Yes.""What happened?"Ginger said, "I want the police to be my notary public."Ginger had just finished speaking when a middle-aged woman hurried over on a scooter.The woman was still wearing a uniform from the factory, and the clothes were covered in dust, which she hadn't managed to pat off.Anyone could see that she had rushed over from the factory and came in a great hurry.When the woman saw the situation, she hastily ran up to Ginger."Ginger? Why are you still here? Didn't you tell me this morning that you'll be leaving today?"Ginger said, "I'll lea

    Harrison and his family knew that Ginger had a mild temper, so they thought that the new house would be theirs. But unexpectedly …Harrison and his wife were so pissed that they cursed Ginger and even her ancestors.Ginger and Gabriel had already gotten on the bus headed toward the city, but they were still cursing.Gabriel frowned deeply, looking at the family through the window. His gaze was dark.Ginger comforted him, saying, "Just leave them be. They can curse however they like. After all, they're from the Strand family as well. We share the same ancestors."Gabriel said, "Ginger, if you want to cry, just let it out. I won't laugh at you, so don't hold it in."Ginger smiled instead. "There's nothing to cry about. I've already vented all my feelings when I was running after them with a knife. They should be the ones crying now."Moreover, Anna has always been nice to us since we were young. We never paid her back much, so we finally managed to repay her kindness this time. We

    Gabriel was stunned when he heard that. He forgot that he had said that before.He hastily said, "I did quit, but I've been working for him for a long time, so it's inappropriate for me to quit over the phone. I want to go back and have a look, and then I'll explain it to him face to face."Ginger didn't quite believe him.She wasn't looking down on anyone, but she felt that ordinary fishmongers wouldn't sign an official job contract. They could just call their boss and inform them if they wanted to quit.It wasn't necessary to see their boss in person.Noticing Ginger's disbelief, Gabriel added, "I've been working for him for many years. I'm indebted to him."Ginger didn't realize that Gabriel was lying. She believed him this time. Nodding, she said, "It's good to prioritize relationships."It's not a bad idea to go back and have a look. You can say a proper goodbye to your boss."Gabriel responded, "Yeah."They chatted for a moment. Then, Ginger took out her phone and began

    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. 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
