“I thought so. A beautiful girl like you must get a lot of attention,” Leon remarked candidly as if he was chatting with a close friend. Danielle chuckled. “Is your boyfriend your classmate? I’m sure he must be excellent.” “Yeah, he is.” “What are your plans for the future? I can tell you’re ver
Danielle did not dare to look back and sped walked to her building.As something was on her mind, she did not notice the eye-catching car parked by the roadside.As she passed by the car, the door opened, and Karl spoke from behind her.“Where have you been? You’re back so late.”Danielle looked bac
Danielle recalled the bitter expression on Timothy’s face and his last sentence: “Is it just because I was born a Burt?”She turned to look toward the kitchen door, feeling even more remorseful.It made her think of the time Karl suggested she work at his company but on the sole condition that she c
Danielle gulped.Aaron asked, “Hi, may I know who you’re looking for?”“Sorry, I’m in the wrong place.”As Danielle said that, she turned around and headed toward the stairwell, leaving in a rush. Aaron was puzzled. ‘In the wrong place?’It was the 36th floor. Who could get it wrong?Besides, it ba
Her action made Leon a little disappointed. “Danielle, you hate me quite a bit, don’t you?”Danielle clasped her hands behind her back, her expression calm.“Mr. Leon, I understand what you meant last night, and that is why I hope we can keep a distance. After all, I have a boyfriend, and I have to
Mia threw her serving tray onto the table Danielle and Anabelle were sitting at, spilling soup onto both Danielle and Anabelle.Anabelle got up and exclaimed, “What are you doing, Mia?”Mia crossed her arms angrily. “Why? You’re allowed to talk about me behind my back, but I’m not allowed to retalia
Danielle snickered. “Just because you think your image isn’t stained doesn’t mean it isn’t. Do you think committing a crime and then burying your head in the sand works?”Anabelle frowned when she heard Danielle say that. “What do you mean by that?”“Anabelle, I’m not the only one who came here as a
When Cecilia was done with her call, Robert dashed in.Displeased, he looked at Cecilia and said, “I made you supervisor, yet instead of knowing your place, you keep taking sides. Why are you always targeting Mia when she is doing her job?”“Mr. Parker, the fact that Mia hasn’t been doing her job is
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
