Belle looked at Grayson."I said, this is the only bed left in the house. Where else can I go?" "So you want to sleep with me? How shameless can you be?"Belle was exasperated."You're the shameless one. Get your mind out of the gutter! I never wanted to share a bed with you! Go sleep in a hotel!" Grayson was silent. If it weren't for his deal with Finneas, he would've booked a hotel room right away. He didn't explain anything. Instead, he stressed, "I'm saying this for the last time. Get off my bed!"His voice was icy.Belle frowned."You're a man, so can't you try being considerate for once? If you don't wanna leave, sleep on the couch. Stop bothering me." Grayson was furious. He tugged at the blanket on Belle's body.Belle had wrapped herself up tightly. She shouted, "Someone, help! He's harassing me! This old thug is trying to bully a young lady!" Grayson was speechless.Belle should be grateful for the decent upbringing that taught Grayson not to hit women. If no
Grayson glanced at Belle, suspicious."Are you sure she's the one who did it?""Absolutely. We have surveillance footage here. Have a look."Grayson patiently watched the video.The footage showed it all clearly. Belle was quick and precise. Within two minutes, the six men were all defeated. Grayson looked at Belle again. He had to admit that he was shocked.She was young and petite. With her small face and childish airs, she looked meek and fragile.One glance and people would assume she was 17. But she was surprisingly good at fighting.Even if Sam had to fight these six men, he wouldn't be able to finish them off so quickly!There was more to his wife than met the eye!The police officer was a man, and he didn't seem to know Grayson. Looking at Grayson pitifully, he whispered, "Bro, you'd better not mess with her at home. Men can be victims of domestic violence too."Grayson was speechless.The police officer continued, "She said that the six men wanted to hurt her, b
As soon as they reached home, Grayson took over the bed.Belle was furious. She pursed her lips and glared at Grayson but didn't say anything much. She only said, "You cunning bastard!"Leaning happily against the headboard, Grayson started reading a book. He ignored her.Belle rolled her eyes at him. Then, she took the blanket with her as she walked toward the couch.The burns on her back hadn't healed, so it felt even more uncomfortable as she lay on the couch. She couldn't lie on her back, so she could only lie face-down.Belle couldn't sleep because of the discomfort. As she thought about what had happened that day, she felt something was off.The men didn't look like they did it on a whim. It felt more like a planned attack.She wanted to visit an old friend of Noah's, but she ran into the six goons on her way there.Normal goons would either rob passersby or harass them. But these people had acid! What did that mean? Did they want to ruin her face?Also, when they sa
June wasn't home. The person who answered the door was her mother, Ingrid Straub. Ingrid was stunned when she saw Belle. "Who are you looking for, miss?"Belle didn't answer. Instead, she asked for confirmation. "Is this June's house?""Yes, but who are you? Are you June's fan? Or—"Before Ingrid finished speaking, Belle entered the house.Realizing that the visitor didn't come in peace, Ingrid was upset."Hey, what's with the attitude? You can't just barge in! This is trespassing! I can get the police to arrest you for that! Get out!"Belle didn't move. She narrowed her eyes at a photo of June on the wall. A look of disdain flashed across her eyes.In the next second …Loud crashes and thuds reverberated throughout the house. Ingrid was shocked and speechless. When she came to her senses, Belle had more or less thrashed the house."Aah!" Ingrid screamed and hastily dialed June's number."June, hurry and come back! A crazy woman just came into our house! She started throw
Grayson was speechless. It was only then that he realized why Belle called him over.She had obtained enough evidence before exacting revenge. He wouldn't have anything to say in return.Belle continued, "June is the mastermind. Should we arrest her for a trial?"Grayson's expression was dark. Frowning, he looked at June.She shuddered in fear. She never thought that the men were so unreliable. They not only failed their mission, but they also exposed her!Ingrid suddenly got up and stood in front of June."Grayson, June would never do such a thing. She doesn't need money, and she's doing well at work. Why would she cause someone else trouble?"Besides, June isn't a fool. If she wants to harm this woman, she wouldn't personally hire people to do it. She'd get exposed too easily."As Ingrid spoke, she nudged June secretly, giving her a look. June instantly returned to her senses. She grabbed Grayson's arm and sobbed, "You have to believe me, Grayson. I was framed! "I never w
Ingrid asked, "So that's Grayson's fiancée?"June said pitifully, "Fiancée? They're married. She's Grayson's wife now!"Mom, I can't accept this! I can't marry Grayson even when I've been with him for so long. But Belle didn't have to do anything! She became his wife just like that!"They've only known each other for a few days! Also, Belle is a country bumpkin. She doesn't have a powerful background."I investigated her before; she never even went to school! I can't believe I lost to a country bumpkin like her!"Ingrid never thought that Belle and Grayson were already married. She was shocked.She collected herself and said, "Don't underestimate that woman. There's more to her than meets the eye. She may seem young, but she's quite capable."You're no match for her. Just be good and don't mess with her anymore."June widened her eyes."Don't mess with her? Should I just sit by and watch her stick around Grayson every day?"Ingrid pursed her lips."How stupid can you be? Don
Grayson opened the gift box patiently. Inside was a limited edition LV bag that young socialites would fight for.Belle grew up in the mountains, so she didn't know much about bags. She only glanced at it before looking away. She didn't seem to like it.Grayson frowned. This was his first time buying a bag for a woman, but she didn't appreciate it.If it weren't for his guilt, he wouldn't have bought her a bag in the first place.Suppressing the displeasure in his heart, Grayson gave Belle a debit card."There's one million dollars inside. It's your allowance for this month."Grayson didn't know about the black card Finneas had given her. Glancing at the card, Belle frowned and asked, "What are you trying to say here?"It was too out of character for Grayson to give her money and gifts.Grayson said patiently, "You're right. June was in the wrong. I'm apologizing to you on her behalf. I've reprimanded her, so she won't cause you trouble anymore."Belle narrowed her eyes.Sh
Belle was furious and anxious, and her face turned red."No one's causing you trouble! My card is gone. You and I are the only people in this house, so who else could've taken it but you?"Grayson frowned. "What card?""The gilded black card Mr. Page Senior gave me!"Grayson was stunned when he heard that. He couldn't believe that Finneas had given Belle his black card!After all, it was an unlimited black card. There were less than 10 of the same cards issued worldwide.He knew that Finneas liked Belle, but he didn't expect him to like her this much!Grayson said, "I wasn't the one who took the card. You didn't just stay home after arriving in Maltford. Think about it, where else have you gone with it?"Belle frowned deeply. She didn't believe him.Grayson continued, "I own 60% of the wealth in the international market. Why would I want your money? You can't just accuse me without any proof!"I thought you were smarter than June, but you aren't much better than her. You only
