Max stared at Danielle in agony. He had no idea. Her gaze was cold. “I was thinking that you ruined it all for me. If I hadn’t been with you, I could’ve gotten a teaching position at the school on my own merits. But because I was with you, even if I got a job here, it would feel like I didn’t earn
On Saturday, Danielle tutored Timothy in the morning and had a session with another student in the afternoon.As Danielle was leaving the student’s residence, Dave gave her a call, asking when she would be back for dinner. She looked at the time. “I won’t be home for dinner, Dave.” Dave glanced at
Danielle was suddenly struck by a thought, so she ran out without replying to Karl.Curious, Karl followed her. Danielle came to the entrance and saw the man, who had tried to take advantage of her, restrained and yelling.She approached him and asked indifferently, “Who sent you?” The man’s eyes
Danielle looked at Karl with a spark in her eyes. “Come on, Mr. Burt.” She got out of the car ahead of him. Karl, on the other hand, scanned the area before getting out of the car. Since he was already there, he figured he might as well see what she had in store for him. Danielle stepped over th
Danielle pursed her lips. “For starters, my usual way of dealing with harassment didn’t work on him. He also said that I picked the wrong person to mess with.” “You have a way to deal with harassment?” Karl was surprised. “Do share.”“Why should I tell you?” “I helped you out, and you repaid me wi
After the end of her Monday morning class, Hazel approached Danielle. “Do you want to have lunch, girl?” “Sure.” Danielle tidied her books and carried them out. The girls went downstairs and walked out of the school building. From afar, Hazel pointed to the door and said, “Look at the two-timer.”
When Danielle was on her way to her afternoon class, Hazel approached her excitedly. “Huge news, Danielle. Max hit Rochelle this morning.” “Hit?” Danielle was surprised as Max was not the type to hit anybody. “Many people saw Rochelle meeting with Max, and he pushed her onto the grass. I felt so h
“Do I need a reason?” Danielle looked at Karl. “Human nature is never random. There has to be a motivation behind your action.” “Call me unambitious.” Danielle raised her brow. “I’m not aiming high. I just want to live my life in peace.” Karl looked at Danielle, baffled by her reasoning. “So you
Danielle coyly laughed it off. “No, she didn’t! Maybe I’m just overthinking it.” “In that case, don’t stress yourself thinking about it. Besides, Brooklyn was just someone that Justin’s family chose for him after they went through the list of candidates and decided that she offered the best. As lon
“I’m just telling the truth.” Karl smirked before prompting, “Alright, I’ll drop it. What was it that she said to you in the past?” “I don’t feel like talking about it anymore.” “What, is it a secret between the two of you that you won’t share with me?” Danielle shot him a look. In addition to sw
Karl followed Justin’s gaze and looked outside the window similarly, then he remarked faintly, “Do you feel like Harmony has become rather different? She’s not in a very good state of mind right now, and I think she will need a therapist when she gets to Miraco.” Justin stared at Harmony for a brie
Danielle relented, “Harmony, the reason he wants you to go back is not that he’s angry at you or anything like that. He's…” “It’s fine, you don’t have to explain. I have thought about it and have decided that I will believe in and listen to whatever he says from now on. I trust him as much as I tru
Danielle wondered what he wanted to discuss with her. What an elegant way to put it. “Sure, what do you want to talk about?” Karl sat up, “I just spoke to Justin on the phone. He says he’s going to Miraco next month to start a new branch there and that he will be there for a few years. I was hopi
As Danielle turned around, she saw Max at the door. She stopped in her tracks briefly before finally walking over. “Are you guys done already?” Max just smiled at her slightly. “Mr. Burt is a concise person.” Danielle replied, “That’s fair. Thank you for saving Karl today.” “Mr. Burt has already
Hearing Max’s name, Karl deliberated briefly before responding, “Dan, why don’t you help them send Harmony back to her ward? In the meantime, you can have Max come in. I have something to say to him.” Danielle got worried. “What do you have to say to him? Let’s just forget about it.” “Don’t worry,
After receiving the news that Karl had woken up, despite just being discharged from the emergency room, Harmony made a fuss about wanting to go see Karl. Timothy was also worried. He agreed with Harmony’s request and brought her to Karl’s ward via wheelchair. Seeing Karl, Harmony burst out in tear
As Danielle said that, tears started rolling down her cheeks, her shaky hands moving towards the call bell. How could Karl not recognize her? Could he have hit his head when he fell? What could she do? What could she do now that the person she loved no longer recognized her? Before she could pre
