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 was dropped off at the hotel entrance at 6:00 p.m. After a phone call, the secretary got out of the car and opened the door for Danielle. “After you, Ms. Wendell.” Danielle carefully stepped out of the car in her heels. She steadied herself and lifted her head, meeting the eyes of a man
“Do you know him?” The sight of Teddy reminded Karl of Noah. Danielle snapped out of her thoughts. She realized she had been holding onto his arm too tightly, so she shook her head and quickly let go of him. “I don’t.” “Do you want anything to eat?” “Sure.” Her expression looked forced. “Come h
The noise of the party seemed to have faded away as Danielle could not hear a thing. Both the music and chatter were missing. Her senses were filled with Karl’s warm lips and the scent of red wine. Karl also seemed to have lost himself in the kiss. He had thought that he wanted to kiss her the l
When Noah met Karl’s gaze, sparks were flying. Danielle’s heart was beating out of her chest. She looked at Noah and then Karl, weighing out the pros and cons. A while later, she pulled away from Karl’s grip. However, she could not break free from his tight clutch. It was because Karl was furi
“Um… I can’t promise you that for now.” Danielle looked at Noah. “It’s too late to switch tutors. Mr. Burt’s brother has less than a month until his exams, and it takes time to build rapport with a new tutor. Besides, I've already taken the money.” “Don't worry about the money. I’ll help you pay ba
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
