Tonight, Karl threatened Danielle again: to do nothing in bed or to sleep separately after sex. It was up to her to choose. Danielle knew Karl would not touch her if he gave her his word, hence they simply slept in the bed. The next day, Karl returned to Northtide after having breakfast with her.
Hazel was furious. “Why won’t that damn Max go to hell?!” After saying that, she got up and went around to sit beside Danielle. She said seriously, “Dan, all men in the world are different. Are you not going to fall in love and get married because of a scum like Max? That’s not right.” Danielle pu
Timothy looked down and kept quiet. After hearing what Danielle said, he felt more or less guilty. Danielle sidestepped and broke free from Karl’s embrace. She told Timothy, “I didn’t tell you all these to get your sympathy. I only hope that you don’t resent me because of the Whites; I hate them ju
Timothy stood up and looked at Danielle with a frown. If it were in the past, he would definitely feel that a savior had come. Now… He was somewhat afraid of her. “Why are you here?” “Can I not come? What happened?” Another guy got up and said, “Ms. Wendell, this isn’t our fault. Those seniors
Back on campus, Danielle had just entered the office when Ms. Hale said, “Dan, Mr. Gray just came over and said he wants you to see him when you’re back.” Danielle placed her bag on the stool and nodded. “Okay. Thanks, Ms. Hale.” She arrived at Max’s office and knocked on the door before walking i
The man hissed in pain. As Danielle missed her shot, she quickly went to pick up the dumbbell again. When the man saw that, he grabbed her waist and yanked her up. Shocked, Danielle desperately shouted, “Ah! Let go of me.” The person finally spoke, “Don’t scream. It’s me.” Danielle immediately
Danielle was speechless. ‘What a pervert.’ Karl pulled her closer, saying, “I’m sleepy. Let’s sleep.” Danielle frowned and asked, “Are you staying here again?” “Did you think I sneaked in late at night just to take a look at you and leave? I have desires.” Danielle wailed internally, confused as
Back in the office, Danielle held her phone in her hand. After hesitating for a long time, she opened the internet browser. She had wanted to look up Caitlin Carter, but her name was already on the search list. [Caitlin Carter and Tycoon K are suspected to be in a romantic relationship as fans un
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
