“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 had always believed that since she had nothing to lose, she had everything to live for. As Karl shoved her into the car, Danielle realized that, despite his wealth, Karl was not afraid to lose anything. He pinned her down on the backseat, paying no mind to the chauffeur’s difficult positi
When Karl noticed her swollen foot, he expressed unhappily, “Don’t you think it’s ridiculous that you, a woman, can’t even handle wearing high heels?” “Don’t you think it’s ridiculous that you, a man, kissed a woman you hardly knew and then did it with her twice in one night?” Karl looked at her.
Karl carried Danielle out of the hospital in his arms. The doctor informed her that she would have to pay close attention to her ankle after the swelling subsided. Since she had twisted it once, it was easy to aggravate it and twist it again. She was going to hobble out of the hospital on her own
Judging by how Danielle stormed off stubbornly, Noah understood that she was truly upset. There was no use in him saying anything to her until she calmed down. He sighed and watched while rooted to the spot as Danielle walked into the school. Danielle felt restless the entire day. When Max found
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
