Danielle gave him a confused look. “How do I make up for it?” Karl immediately picked her up without warning.The shopping bag in Danielle's hand dropped to the floor. That was when she realized that Karl was up to no good again. She grew frantic. “Why are you always like this?” Karl cast her a l
After dinner, the butler delivered Karl his clothes. As usual, Karl ended up staying at Danielle’s place again. In the past, she would feel rather annoyed but was largely helpless. Now, she seemed to have gotten used to it and did not think much of it at all. Despite that, she was also aware that
With that, he started his countdown, “One, two, two point five, two point six…” Danielle leaned forward and kissed him on the cheek. Karl smiled with delight, “Not bad. Good girl.” Danielle was annoyed. She threw herself back into the backseat and sat snugly. She had given him the kiss he wanted,
“Yeah, I got sick, so you had to take me to the hospital, remember? You need to take me to the school infirmary before you can head back to the office.” Danielle frowned and eyed him up and down. “You don’t look very sick to me.” “Well, do you think that people with late-stage cancer need to have
She could not make sense of this. Why would they even bother uploading it when her face was not even visible? Upon noticing Danielle joining in, Houston whipped a curious look at her and asked, “Miss Wendell, have you seen the news about Caitlin lately?” Danielle grew nervous for a moment and trie
As soon as Luna finished her piece, she hung up immediately. Danielle was speechless and set her phone on the table. Was this woman crazy? When she thought back to the picture she had just seen on Miss Houston's phone, she realized that Luna must have recognized her. She remembered the scene from
“I don't think you would accept him either way.” “What makes you think so?” “Well, it’s just based on what I know about you so far.” Danielle pursed her lips. She doubted she was all that close with Miss Hale yet. “You’re right on that count.” “Then, why did you offer to talk to him in private?
Dave the butler left along with around five housemaids. Karl’s expression was filled with gloom. He shot Danielle another look and patted the seat next to him. “Come, sit here.” “I’ve been sitting all day. I think I should stand for a minute.” “Do you want me to head over there and carry you ove
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
