Danielle yelped from the pain and yanked the fabric of her dress away from her. She fanned it while running to the pool, where she filled her cup with cold water and poured it on herself. Since it was a dress, she could not afford to take it off and inspect the burn. Seeing Danielle in pain, the s
She proceeded to relay what she said in front of the pantry just now to Robert. Before Robert could comment, Cecilia Anderson stood by Danielle and said, “Mr. Parker, please let Dan go to the hospital to attend to her injury. She has blisters forming on her stomach. If she doesn’t sort it out immed
Danielle looked at Karl from behind and thought about it. After a brief hesitation, she remarked, “Of course not. She obviously did it on purpose.” Karl turned back to face her and raised his voice significantly. “She did it on purpose?" Danielle chuckled. “Since you’re the boss, do you think I’m
“Alright.” Aaron was slightly puzzled as to why his boss had been so concerned about the happenings in the training department over the past two days. Ten minutes later, Cecilia showed up at his office and greeted him respectfully. “Hello, Mr. Burt. I’m Cecilia.” “Do you know why I wanted to see
After Cecilia left, Karl grinned. He remembered seeing a contact named “the dean’s silly son” on her phone once. He shook his head in disbelief. ‘What a woman…’After a while, Aaron knocked on the door and entered with Danielle's cell phone, which he passed to Karl. “Mr. Burt, Cecilia handed this
Karl sneered, “Because you’re her illegitimate brother? Noah, I think you’re the one who is full of yourself.” “Whether our sibling relationship is legitimate or not is not for you to decide, Mr. Burt.” Karl's gaze turned cold. “While you and your family were living the high life, she was left to
Danielle was stunned. “Huh?” “I’m asking you, what name do you have Noah saved as on your phone?” She made a face. “Why do you want to know?” “I’m just wondering if you give nicknames exclusively to men you don’t like. For my part, I can’t say I’m happy with being nicknamed Mr. Bossman.” Daniell
As she stepped out of the pantry, she met Mia, who was entering the pantry. Mia walked up to her and crossed her arms against her chest. “Young people these days sure are something, skipping out of work just because of some minor injuries. And as if that wasn’t enough, they blame it on someone else
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
