Hunter seemed to be mumbling to himself, unable to make logical sense of the situation.Grayson's brows furrowed slightly before he said, "If you recall anything related to the ancient tomb under Mount Moriah, tell me. Here's my phone number."Hunter quickly broke out of his thoughts. "Alright.""Furthermore, I want you to know that I've taken your words from last night seriously. I've already dispatched someone to take appropriate action," Grayson conveyed.Hunter's eyes were filled with gratitude. After a moment's silence, he asked, "Does that ancient tomb have anything to do with Belle, Grayson?""Why the sudden question?" Grayson asked."You seem to care a lot about that place. Ordinary businessmen don't usually concern themselves with ancient tombs."After a moment of silence, Grayson said, "Belle might be related to the tomb in some way. I'm not sure how exactly."Hunter responded, "Since I've been there, I can draw out everything I've seen inside.""Huh?""I have a goo

Hunter proudly said to his father, "I'll let you in on a secret. Do you know Mr. Grayson's full name? His full name is Grayson Page, CEO of Page Corporation. I'm on really good terms with them. He and Belle treat me very well, so you no longer need to worry about me. I have friends from high places now."Benjamin was shocked. "Grayson Page? Maltford's richest man?"Hunter hummed in acknowledgment. "My goodness. No wonder I had a feeling he wasn't ordinary. So he's the god-like man people talk about! This is wonderful news! You're incredibly blessed, Hunter. You won't have to worry about being jobless from now on. You have to treat them with honesty, Hunter. They've helped us a lot, so we need to show gratitude," Benjamin said."I know.""I feel much more at ease knowing you have connections with them. Based on your personality, I was worried you might end up all alone if something happened to me."Hunter scoffed even though his heart ached at the thought. "I'm not that terrible.

The rain was pouring heavily when Grayson arrived home. Meredith was surprised to see him drenched in rainwater. "Didn't you bring an umbrella, Mr. Page?""Is Belle still asleep?" Grayson asked. He hurriedly took off his soaked coat and walked to the stairs."Yes, sir. I went to check earlier and saw Ms. Walters still fast asleep. I didn't disturb her.""Prepare some hot soup. I'll go check on her," Grayson said.Belle would be jolted awake by the thunder. Once awake, she'd be hungry.Grayson hurried upstairs. When he pushed open the door, he immediately heard Belle making noise in her sleep.He went over to her side. Belle's eyes were shut tight, and her brows furrowed. Cold sweat beaded her forehead as she clenched the bed sheets tight.It looked like Belle was having a nightmare she couldn't wake up from, no matter how hard she tried.Grayson slipped into bed and cradled her in his arms, murmuring, "Belle, sweetheart … "Only after several calls of her name did Belle jolt

Thunder abruptly echoed outside the house, causing Belle to seek refuge in Grayson's embrace.He tightened his hold around her.Belle trembled, evoking both pity and joy in Grayson. Had he become as significant to Belle as her parents?Belle used to dream about her parents when it rained. Now, she was beginning to dream of him.Her dream brought back Grayson's memories of the ancient tomb. The Belle within the tomb had urgently urged him to hurry up and leave.Was this some kind of mystic premonition?Would Grayson really be in danger if he stayed by Belle's side?His embrace tightened around Belle as he delved deeper into his thoughts.Perhaps Belle's true identity posed a genuine danger to him. However, Grayson's love for her prevailed. He was determined to stand by her, regardless of the risks."I feel like people who are nice to me will never end up well," Belle grumbled, her face buried in Grayson's chest. Her voice carried a mix of blame, disappointment, and sadness.Gr
Powerless Against His Feisty Wife Chapter 928 First Love
Grayson felt a sweetness in his heart akin to honey.But then he was confused.If Belle loved only ever loved one person, then where did that leave Lovy?Belle's first love? Just the affectionate stage and not to the point of love yet?Though Grayson was confused, he didn't voice it out. He didn't want the mention of Lovy to disrupt this tender moment between him and Belle.Plus, Belle herself said she only loved Grayson. No matter what kind of relationship Belle had with Lovy, what mattered was that Belle was with Grayson now, not Lovy.So, there was no need for Grayson to fuss over Lovy. Grayson was, by comparison, far luckier than Lovy was.Grayson tenderly kissed Belle's forehead. "You're the only one I'll ever love for the rest of my life. If you decide to not want me one day, I'll stay single until the day I die.""Then let's promise to never fall in love with anyone else. If either of us breaks this promise, they'll be the jackass of the century."Grayson chuckled fondl

"I know. You don't need to worry. Everything's going well. The children are finally at ease," Grayson said. He then asked, "Do you like playing games?""Huh?" Grayson handed Belle a game console. "The company developed a new game recently. Want to do a one versus one?" He was trying to find a way to fill Belle's spare time.Playing games was better than overthinking.Belle immediately sat up. "Sure."The two then spent hours playing the game on separate consoles in bed.The next morning, Sam called Grayson over the phone before either of them woke up.Grayson's expression grew somewhat ugly upon accepting the phone call.When he hung up, Belle asked, "What's the matter?""A potential business partner is here in Maltford. The proud and reckless fellow went to throw a tantrum at the office earlier today," Grayson grumbled."What business partner?""Someone from Krowdon, a classic spoiled rich brat.""What's so good about working with a spoiled rich brat?""It's his father

Grayson went to the conference room upon arriving at the office.Meanwhile, the secretarial department went to Sam to complain."Is there something wrong with Mr. Carthus, Sam? He shot us all a look when he entered the building, like we owed him money or something. It was terrifying."Sam whispered, "Did he get into conflict with you guys?""Who would dare? We all know Mr. Carthus is one of the company's important clients, so none of us dare provoke him. But he's too peculiar. What was with that awful glare upon first meeting us?"Sam scoffed. "He glared at me just like that yesterday at the hotel, too.""Huh? Does he have beef with us?""Probably just with Mr. Page."The secretarial department was shocked by this news. "A beef with Mr. Page? How could they possibly work together then?"Sam said, "The person Mr. Page intends to work with is Mr. Carthus' father. Who knew he'd send his son over? We've been on good terms with Krowdon for a couple of years, and our salaries will d

Grayson was smoking before the window. He froze in surprise when he saw Belle walk in. "What are you doing here?""I'm here to work."Grayson put out the cigar he was holding. "I thought you were going to the clinic today.""I haven't officially quit. I don't want any rumors to start if I keep playing hooky.""If anyone has anything to say, I'd like them to say it to my face.""I know you're looking out for me, but the Page Corporation represents the whole Page family. I don't want to give people a reason to talk shit about me behind my back," she replied.Then, she asked, "Are you in a bad mood today?""What?""The secretarial department is talking about how grumpy you are today."Grayson frowned. "Blabbermouths.""Well, they were concerned about you. What happened? Is something wrong?""Everything's fine." Grayson instinctively reached for his cigar again, but he remembered that Belle disliked the smell of smoke and gave up. He stood up and went to get something for Belle

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.

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.

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
