Hunter then turned his light on and shone it to his right and left before saying, "The people back then also liked to create more than one path as red herrings to throw grave robbers off."Grayson asked, "Which path do we follow?""The left. The right leads to a dead end. Eventually, that path just closes off into nothing."Hunter walked toward the left path while Grayson followed.The further they walked in, the lower the ceiling got until they were forced to bend over, almost crawling.Hunter said, "Just hold it for a little while longer. It will get wider the further we go in.""Okay."The two of them continued walking when a large stone wall appeared in front of them. Hunter calmly felt along the edge of the wall, and the stone wall rolled open automatically like a garage door.It looked different behind the door. They no longer had to walk bent over since the room was extremely wide, and Grayson could smell rot and decay."Now we're really in the tomb," Hunter said.The

Hunter said, "These tunnels lead to many different places. Only one of them leads to the actual tomb. We need to go through the one in the middle. That leads to the stone wall, and behind that is where the kidnappers are. We can listen in from there and find out whether the kids are there or not."Their goal for entering the tomb in the first place was to find out if the kids were in there or not.Grayson didn't speak. He was staring at an old painting on the wall.The painting depicted a bunch of strangely dressed people on their knees facing a woman.They looked like a bunch of ministers who were worshipping their king.Grayson's attention turned to the woman in the painting. She was dressed in clothes from the olden days and had headpieces from an older period. She sat with her legs crossed and smiled at the crowd worshipping her.Grayson stared at her. He found her somewhat familiar.He felt like he had seen her somewhere before.However, that woman was clearly someone from

Belle took a few more steps and called out again, "Leave! You have to get out of here! Run!"As she spoke, the corner of her mouth suddenly started bleeding, and her clothes became tattered and dirty, as if she had gotten injured.Grayson's heart began to pound faster. He wanted to call out to her, but he couldn't speak. He wanted to run over to her, but he couldn't move.He still hadn't wrapped his mind around what was going on when a bunch of people suddenly appeared behind Belle. They had long swords and looked ready to kill.Belle seemingly didn't notice the people behind her. She was still trying to get him to leave. "Grayson, go! Run! There's no time. You have to leave!"She was stomping in frustration as her desperation turned to anger.Grayson's pupils contracted rapidly. He didn't know what was happening, but he could see that the people behind Belle had almost caught up to her. She still wasn't moving, which drove him crazy.He wanted to warn Belle to watch out, but he

"How are you feeling?" Hunter asked."I'm fine now. Let's keep moving.""Okay."The two of them walked a bit longer and reached the stone wall. Hunter lowered his voice into a whisper. "They're right opposite."Grayson leaned closer to the stone wall and heard the angry complaints from the people on the other side. "I don't know what he's thinking. We told him it was an emergency, and he still ignored us. What did he mean? They got discovered? "That girl was clearly just down on her luck and bumped into a bunch of hooligans! The boss is so annoying. He ended up blaming us for everything anyway and said we were the ones who didn't do a good clean-up job.""Calm down. Boss is only careful because of what happened to Hugo and the others. After they got into trouble, he's been terrified that this whole operation is going to get exposed. After all, no one knows whether Hugo and the rest spilled any beans when they were being tortured, but before we could figure that out, another prob

"What should we do?" Hunter whispered, "Those kids are their hostages. If we rush in, those kids will be in danger."Grayson thought about it for a moment and stared at the stone wall in front of him before asking, "Can we pass from here?""No, it's a dead end.""Do you know what the terrain is like over there?""Yes, I've drawn it before."Hunter took a drawing out of his bag. "I came here before they did, so I'm familiar with the tomb. After coming over that night, I never heard those kids' voices again, but I had my doubts, so I drew out the layout of that side. Look."Grayson glanced at the map. "Are the kids hidden in a secret room?""Yes. The place they're in is only a corner of the tomb, and it was to confuse the tomb raiders that would come to rob the place. It was simple, but it was complete. They hid the kids in that secret room. It's the nearest to where we are right now."Grayson asked, "If we go in from the front, will we find the kids?""There are mechanisms to o

Grayson tried not to think about the painting changing and messaged Jake. "The kids are in there. I've sent you a map of the place. Go along with the original plan."Jake quickly replied, "Got it."Grayson tucked his phone away and said to Hunter, "My team is on it. Let's go."Hunter nodded and pointed at the other passageways. "The one on the right is the only one that leads to the main room, but there are a lot of hidden mechanisms and traps in there, and a lot of weird stuff might happen. No matter what, I need you to stay calm and ignore whatever you see."Grayson didn't find it weird that a kid who wasn't even 20 years old was giving him advice like that. After all, Hunter was a professional with experience under his belt.He couldn't amount to Hunter in that aspect."I got it."The two of them walked toward the entrance on the right. As they walked, they heard a series of whispers.Grayson frowned. That voice sounded familiar."Does that sound like Ms. Belle to you?"

Grayson could hear police sirens and children crying from not too far off. "Let's bring Hunter into the car first. Get someone to send him to the hospital. Don't let anyone know that he was here," he said.Jake nodded and immediately waved a bodyguard over. After talking to him for a bit, the bodyguard left with Hunter.Jake said to Grayson, "Things were really weird today. We don't know who saved those kids."Grayson was taken aback. "Wasn't it you guys?"Jake shook his head. "When I led them into the tomb, the kidnappers were all dead. Only the kids were left alive.""How did the kidnappers die?""They seemed to be scared to death. They died horrible deaths, and the kids said that the kidnappers went crazy. They started killing each other, and when there was only one left, he strangled himself to death."Grayson fell silent."It does sound weird, but those kids all said the same thing, and they don't sound like they're lying," Jake said. "Do we know why the mountain suddenl

The roads finally cleared, and Gabriel stopped the car by the side of the road and waited for Grayson.Grayson finally reached them. He noticed Gabriel beside Belle and frowned slightly before saying, "I thought I told you to stay in Ginger's house."His tone was resentful and aimed toward Gabriel.Gabriel wasn't angry at Grayson's attitude and said, "I couldn't hold her back."He wasn't sure if he could win against Belle in a solo fight, let alone if she poisoned him or anything.Grayson pressed his lips together and remained silent."Well, she's yours to watch over again," Gabriel said, "I'll be going now."He started his engine and drove off.Grayson stared after his car for a second. Gabriel wasn't driving back to Ginger's house. He was going back to Mount Moriah.He didn't say anything about it and dragged Belle into his car. "Your hands are freezing."Belle didn't even notice and asked, "Where's your jacket? Why are you only in a shirt?""It got dirty, so I tossed it."

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
Powerless Against His Feisty Wife Chapter 1268 Proud Of Him
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
Powerless Against His Feisty Wife Chapter 1267 Destiny's Guiding Hand
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
