Meanwhile, Gabriel had been found by the underlings of the Flemings.

They had been delayed when Grayson threw them off in order to meet with Gabriel earlier.

The underlings seemed upset as they had assumed it was Gabriel who threw them off track.

"Mr. Gabriel, you were ordered to leave Maltford today, whether you want to or not. If you refuse, you know what's going to happen to Ms. Strand."

Gabriel gritted his teeth in anger as he kicked one of the underlings and sent him flying.

He then ran over to pin the man down and continued to beat him up until his face was unrecognizable.

Once he was done, he stood back up and massaged his neck as he looked back at the underlings.

"Know your manners. If I ever hear any of you trying to threaten me with Ginger, I'll kill you myself."

The men instantly cowered in fear with their heads lowered."Of course, Mr. Gabriel."

Gabriel pulled out his phone to give the Flemings' patriarch, Wilbur Flemings, a call.

Wilbur had assumed that Gabriel w

    Gabriel hung up and put away his phone before turning around to face the few underlings."I've received a new mission and will continue staying in Maltford. I need the rest of you to look for a woman named Lena. Notify me immediately if you find her."One of them asked, "Do you have any pictures or information about her?"Gabriel narrowed his eyes in slight anger and agitation. "I don't."He would not give them any information even if he had any. It would be best for him if they never managed to find Lena so that he could remain by Ginger's side.The men did not ask any further questions and dispersed.Gabriel pulled out a different phone and anonymously informed every other major family about the news that Lena was an Aspen. He then turned around and ran toward the Spring Gardens neighborhood.He was elated.Just an hour ago, he was still nervously facing his mortality as he was about to head into Mandoria for the mission.Even if he survived the ordeal, Wilbur would send him

    Back at the house, the German shepherd started barking as it heard Gabriel's arrival.Ginger was woken up by the commotion. "What's wrong? Why are you barking in the middle of the night?"The dog continued to bark at the door.She turned on the lights in the living room and cautiously looked around the door. "Who's there?""Ginger, it's me! Can you help me with the door? I … can't seem to open it."Gabriel had mistakenly used the car key instead and was unable to unlock the door.Ginger opened the door for him right away when she heard his voice. She was pleasantly surprised to see him and was about to ask what happened.But he swiftly pulled her into his arms for a warm embrace.He held onto her so tightly that it almost hurt the both of them.He wished he could properly convey just how much he had missed her."Gabe, what's wrong?"Gabriel lifted her in the air and spun around in place while smiling."I'm not leaving anymore, Ginger. I'm back!"She was getting dizzy from

    Grayson quietly moved toward the study and peeked through the open door to find Finneas inside.He was pleasantly surprised.He opened the door and curiously asked, "You're still awake, Grandpa?"Finneas was also surprised to see him."I couldn't sleep, so I came to have a read. You're so well-dressed in the middle of the night. Did you just go out?""Yeah.""When?""An hour ago.""You should stay by Belle's side. Unless she kicked you out because you made her angry?"Grayson replied, "We're doing well. You can ask her yourself if you want. What about you? Why are you awake in the middle of the night, Grandpa?"Finneas stared at him for a long while before letting out a sigh."I paid a visit to Tom today, and he doesn't look too good.""What's wrong?""Robert's departure is an attempt to distract the mysterious families. Tom knows that well, but he's still worried sick."Robert gave him a call half a month ago, saying that he would stop calling back home due to new missio

    Grayson replied, "Not even Mr. Walters knows about Belle's secret, so I assume that the mysterious families wouldn't know as well. They probably know as much as we do—that Belle has a secret—but nobody knows what it is."Finneas nodded and sighed."If even Noah has no idea about it, I doubt there's anyone left in this world who would know.""Perhaps, there is still someone who'd know.""Who?""Mrs. Sylvester Senior's personal maid, Ethel."Finneas seemed confused. "What about her?""Mr. Walters isn't a member of the Aspens, and his knowledge about them is limited. On the other hand, Mrs. Sylvester Senior used to live with the Aspens and took care of Belle's mother. If anyone knows about Belle's secret, it'd be Mrs. Sylvester Senior."The day she died, she invited Belle to meet up at the mountains. Perhaps she had wanted to tell Belle about her secret, but Lena's arrival threw her plans into disarray. She knocked Belle out cold and hid her before sacrificing herself."Finneas n

    Grayson frowned as he thought about Lena, the mysterious families, and even all the mysteries surrounding the Aspens.He lifted his hand and lightly pinched Belle's cheeks.He liked her more than anything, and she belonged to him. He would protect her regardless of her secrets and regardless of how powerful all her enemies were.As long as he was still alive, he would not allow any harm to come her way."Grayson!" Belle suddenly shouted out loud.His hands were still on her cheek as he froze up in place, wondering if she was actually awake.She raised her voice and shouted again, "Grayson!""I'm here. What's wrong?""You're shameless."Grayson was at a loss for words."You vixen! You asshole! Get lost! You're shameless, you're trying to seduce me …"Belle continued to mutter to herself with her eyes closed. She pushed at him before diving headfirst into his arms and continuing to wiggle around.She was softly wailing as she wiggled.She didn't seem to be in pain but seem

    Melanie spoke up. "Relax, Yolanda. You should be standing on Grayson's side, you know? He's your own son, after all! Why would you take the side of some outsider?"She turned to Grayson right after her provocation at Yolanda."Grayson, you should know better of your own authority in the family. Why would you let your wife control you so much?"Her family is rich, true. But Belle seems more like a barbarian than a gracious young woman fit to be your wife!"Stop trying to appeal to her if she's such a headache. Just divorce her already!"Everyone had gotten news that Belle was actually from an affluent family ever since Noah had given Finneas a priceless gift.Melanie no longer tried to slander Belle about her wealth and background but still hoped that Grayson and Belle would one day divorce.She realized it had been difficult to deal with Grayson alone, and it would be even harder if he were to become one with his affluent wife.Once the couple had truly accepted each other, M

    Belle didn't dare to recall what had happened as it would cause her face to turn bright red.She tried moving her legs and found it uncomfortable, but at least it wasn't injured. She felt much better compared to the last time.She could only wonder if it was because her body had gotten used to him or if Grayson had developed better skills.She noticed that he was missing as she reached out for her phone on the nightstand to look at the time.She wondered where he could have gone at five in the morning.Before she could figure it out, she suddenly thought about Robert and instantly woke up.Belle hurriedly looked up Scott's number and called him to ask if he had passed along the message.She didn't try to make small talk with him and just hung up the call right after confirming it.Robert should be smart enough to pay attention to what was being said in the message.As long as he paid proper attention, he would be more considerate when it came to his planning.

    Finneas was also surprised. "Belle has been here since last night?""Yes, she was just being shy and didn't greet you yesterday."His face went from disbelief to laughter. "You bastard!""I should go upstairs to check on her," said Grayson."My grandson has finally done it! Haha, it's about time I get to carry my great-grandchild. I can't believe it! I'll need to have someone bring supplements for Belle immediately."Grayson was left speechless.He went back upstairs and was met with a pillow thrown at his face as he entered the bedroom.Belle was hiding herself under the blanket, revealing only her big pair of eyes that were staring angrily at Grayson.Smiling, he closed the door before picking up the pillow and walking up to her."Are you hungry?"Belle didn't reply but instead jumped out of the bed and started hitting at him to vent her frustrations.Grayson covered his face and let her continue beating him without retaliating.He waited until she stopped from exhaustion

    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
