Grayson looked at Belle and asked, "I know how fired up the group chat is. Aren't you mad about that?""Why should I be?""Because they're saying Colette is a good match for me.""As if! She's not even qualified enough to try and go against me."Grayson said meaningfully, "They're talking so much because they don't know I'm already married. I already came clean during New Year's, but they thought I was making it up to deter any admirers. If we publicized our relationship, no one would be able to make up rumors like that.""That makes sense."Grayson narrowed his eyes. "So …""No, no. We can't publicize our relationship. It will be too much trouble, so we should keep it a secret."Grayson fell silent. Based on Belle's attitude, it would be a cold day in Hell before they got to publicize their relationship.Belle said, "If Colette really manages to settle things with Carthus for you, that means she's not entirely useless. Don't ignore her because of me. You should give her som

Belle replied, "She'll get married eventually. She'll have a husband, too.""Will her husband's name be Grayson? Will her husband be better than me?"Belle blinked as if she had just made an important discovery. She excitedly flung her arms around Grayson's neck and kissed him. "That's true! She'll never beat me when it comes to that."Grayson said, "Also, you're married to the president of Page Corporation. No matter how hard she works, she'll never get to where you are right now. Even if she inherited the Simmons fortune, she still won't be able to compare to you because the Simmons family is much less powerful than the Page family."So, tell me, in what ways is she better than you? There's nothing to be self-conscious about. You beat her in every aspect, whether it's your looks, value, or significant other."Grayson wasn't really good at consoling others, but he was used to consoling his wife.Belle's heart fluttered at his words. She was in a much better mood. "You're the bes

The phone call was from Carthus' father. He'd heard about the fight between Grayson and Carthus and was worried about his son.In fluent Krowdian, Grayson replied honestly, "I was the one who started it. He crossed a line with me."Belle was a line no one should cross. He could deal with Carthus pestering him, but Carthus pestering Belle was the same as asking for death.Carthus' father replied, "Carthus is my favorite son, and I admit that I've spoiled him. If he troubles you in any way, I hope you can forgive him on my behalf. I've already called him to tell him off, and I believe he'll know his place from now on. He won't come to bother you on purpose again."Grayson replied, "I can guarantee his safety in Maltford—provided that he doesn't do anything he's not supposed to.""Alright. I'll make sure he's aware of that.""However, Maltford isn't Krowdon, after all," Grayson reminded. "If you want him to stay safe, make sure he quickly signs the contract and goes back as soon as
Powerless Against His Feisty Wife Chapter 966 I Want to Gobble You Up
Grayson's heart fluttered in his chest, and he wrapped his arms around her, ready to attack her with kisses. Suddenly, his phone rang again.It was a call from Finneas.Belle covered his mouth with her hands, stopping him from doing anything else. "Pick up, quick. It's from Mr. Page Senior."Grayson wrapped his hands tightly around her waist. "I really want to eat you up."Belle's ears turned red. "Hurry up and pick up the call! He only calls you for important things."Grayson gently kissed her on the forehead before walking toward the floor-to-ceiling windows to pick up the call.Belle returned to her seat and heard Grayson mention Carthus' name again as he frowned. She unconsciously frowned as well.It was obvious that Finneas had called because of Carthus. He was really becoming a huge menace.Belle guessed that Grayson would only get more and more frustrated the longer Carthus stayed in Maltford.She sat in thought for a bit longer before texting Gabriel, "Are you free rig
Powerless Against His Feisty Wife Chapter 967 Who Wouldn't Fall for Him
Colette didn't explain herself. She simply said, "I get treated differently at the company just because I know you. I can't get enough of that feeling, so keep dragging it out. Let me feel it for a little while longer."Carthus narrowed his eyes and looked at her. "Are you only going to Page Corporation for work?""What do you think?""Is it because of Grayson?" Carthus asked.Colette narrowed her eyes and said nonchalantly, "Guess."Carthus frowned. "That had better not be the case.""Why not?"Carthus' expression darkened. "No reason."Carthus' eyes gleamed possessively. Colette saw his expression and understood immediately."Carthus, we've known each other for a long time, don't you think? Tell me, do you like Mr. Page?"Carthus didn't answer.Colette continued and said, "Mr. Page is a very skilled man. He's every woman's dream man. Who wouldn't fall for him? Of course, I'll back off if you have a thing for him. I won't fight with you over a man."Carthus didn't agree or

After a brief pause, Carthus suddenly said, "You should leave."Colette stared at him in shock."You came here just to tell me that, right?" Carthus said. "Now that you've said your piece, and now that I know what I need to know, you can leave."Colette stared at him silently. Technically, she did want to use Carthus to get rid of Belle.However, looking at Carthus' expression made her slightly worried. She was worried that Carthus, who was a very direct person, would give up on their plan and leave after signing the contract now that he knew Grayson was already married.If that happened, how was she supposed to keep using him?Colette thought about it for a second and said, "Well, it's not confirmed whether Mr. Page likes her. My grandfather said he seems to like her, but do you think a man who really loves his partner could bear to keep their relationship a secret?"She paused for effect and said, "Their marriage is still a secret. If it were true love, they'd have announced i

Colette froze in shock. Then she arranged her expression into a mask of sorrow and said tearily, "Xenia, I only heard about what happened to you when I got back here. I never thought—you were doing fine when I left. How …"Xenia frowned. "There's no need to force your tears around me. We're not that close. If you have something to say, then say it. If that's all you're here for, then I'm leaving."Xenia was a veteran when it came to acting pitiable and fragile. Colette had to try harder if she wanted to fool Xenia.Colette subtly pressed her lips together, feeling awkward after Xenia called out her act. She said, "That's true, but we did come from the same community. I still feel horrible seeing you like this! "How could someone with our background be defeated so easily by some hillbilly from the mountains? I can't get over the fact that we lost to her!"Xenia frowned. She knew that Colette was talking about Belle.Her entire body trembled with rage at the thought of Belle, and

Colette frowned. "I never thought she'd be from anywhere important, let alone be a skilled fighter. Do you know exactly where she comes from?"Xenia answered, "No.""Have you never done any research on that?""I did, but I couldn't find anything."Colette fell silent."You're not going to be able to go against her alone," Xenia said. "The worst case scenario is that you might end up in a worse place than I am."Colette's expression faltered, betraying her fear. She frowned and said, "I'm not easy to pick off, either."Xenia scoffed and didn't reply. She looked like she wasn't taking Colette seriously.Colette was annoyed and about to say something when Xenia suddenly said, "I have someone who can help you, though. She should know quite a bit about Belle, and she wants revenge on her, too. If you want to kill Belle, that person is your best bet.""Who?" Colette quickly asked.Xenia raised an eyebrow. "Why should I help you?""Don't you want revenge?""I'm already stuck here.

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

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
