Robert caught the documents, and as he looked at them, he became furious.He could not believe that Mia had done so many little things behind his back, leaving him unprepared.“Mr. Burt, the nature of this matter is indeed abominable. Mia’s actions are a serious infraction of the company’s rules. Do
Karl nodded without hesitation. “I would.”“No one else believes me, so why would you?”“Because I know you. You wouldn’t stoop that low.”Danielle looked at him, feeling a little touched.Karl smiled. “Do you think I’m very understanding?”Danielle looked away. “That’s not what I said.”“You’re so
Danielle blushed. He sure was pushing it.“And if we don’t get married?”“What do you think?”“Then, you’ll keep your distance from me and never approach me again.”“There’s no way that’ll happen.” Karl smiled confidently.Danielle scoffed. “Half a year’s the time limit.”“No problem.”After cleanin
After lunch, Danielle and Hazel walked around campus, hand in hand.The best times of their youths they had spent together over the last four years seemed to flash before their eyes.Hazel leaned her head on Danielle’s shoulder. “Time really flies, doesn’t it?”“Yeah. Four years have gone by in just
Danielle had almost forgotten that Karl, too, was a lonely person. … That Saturday morning, Danielle was still asleep when her phone started ringing.Thinking that it was her alarm at first, she casually turned it off.However, a few minutes later, it started ringing again.That was when her brain
Danielle felt like she was being coerced.The car was on the road for an hour and a half before arriving at the resort in the suburbs.As soon as the car stopped, two rows of uniformed staff greeted them respectfully.“Mr. Burt, everyone is inside.”“Okay,” Karl responded curtly as he walked toward
After Danielle went out, Willow approached Karl.“Karl, are you serious about Ms. Wendell?”“Do you think I’m not serious about her?”Willow bit her lip and looked at him. She was upset precisely because he looked serious about Danielle.“I know that I betrayed you. Some things are in the past, and
Karl calmly picked up the glass and took a sip of his drink.“What they’re going through now is not enough payback for the life they took.”Henry raised his eyebrows. “Oh? Does it mean you have another motive for targeting the Whites now?”Karl pursed his lips into a smile. “Don’t worry, Henry. I ha
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
