All Timothy did was send a brief text. “I need everyone to be quiet for a moment.” Just like that, everyone stopped talking, including Danielle. The silence lasted for a full minute before Timothy sent another message. “We’re all humans at the end of the day, so let’s be understanding. Miss Wendel
However, if all the pigs were as good-looking as his family, who would have the heart to eat them?Karl asked nonchalantly while focusing on the road, “What happened today anyway?” “Nothing major. One of my students was having diarrhea all night last night, so I had to take her to the hospital this
Danielle's arrival plunged the kitchen into a state of chaos. She felt very guilty about it. After all, it was already getting late. Karl, on the other hand, sat comfortably with his legs crossed and was watching television without a care. The housemaid brought some berries over to them. Karl ha
Danielle was speechless yet again. What did he even mean by that? She never wanted to take advantage of him in the first place. She asked grumpily, “What do you want me to do?” “I just got a call about a very urgent and important case that came up. Aaron is coming over later, and I need both of yo
Seeing Danielle still with a bag slung over her shoulder and looking frantic, Max frowned and immediately called out to her before she could enter. “Stop.” Danielle stood still and sighed. It was certainly true when they say that when it rains, it pours. She turned to him. “Mr. Gray, did you need
“Alright, enjoy your meal, miss.” With that, the woman got into the car and drove off. Ava gave her a look and chuckled. “It looks like I’ll have to go to the cafeteria myself.” Danielle looked guilty. “I’m sorry, Ms. Hale. It looks like I can’t go to the cafeteria with you.” “Don't feel bad. Su
Over the next few days, Karl had food delivered to Danielle at noon every day. Then, he would head to her place for dinner regardless of how late it was. With that, eating together eventually turned into a ritual. Danielle would always repeat that she wanted Karl to keep his distance from her. D
Timothy did not seem pleased with hearing someone criticizing Danielle. He stood in front of Danielle and shot Max a side-eye. “Who do you think you are? Stop throwing around accusations when you don’t even understand the situation.” Max glared at Timothy. “As her ex-boyfriend, I have a duty to adv
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
