Karl laughed wryly. “Grandpa Floyd, you’re really putting me in a pickle here.”“Don’t worry. I only want to repay the favor. Teddy knows there is some grudge between your families, so he wants an intermediary to bring this up.“After much deliberation, he decided I was most suited for this, so he a
“What happened?” Karl’s voice was low, and he looked at Danielle gently.Just as Danielle was about to speak, Elsa said, “Mr. Burt, your female companion is so rude. All I wanted was to say a few words to her alone, but she started to attack me for some reason. My daughter saw this and came to stop
Danielle looked at Karl, shocked.That was the first time in her life someone said that to her.It made her feel like, as long as Karl was around, it did not matter if the whole world turned its back on her. She felt happy and scared at the same time.She knew what he was hinting at.When Danielle w
Danielle took two steps to the side. When she was about to return to the basketball court, Leslie scolded her. “Danielle, you’re really something by fooling around with Mr. Burt while leading my son on. Even if you think of my son as a backup, you should at least wait until Mr. Burt dumps you.”Dani
Danielle knew Timothy was angry.If Timothy called Karl, he would definitely say something extreme. For some reason, Danielle did not want Karl to misunderstand her.Thus, she glanced at Max, who was lying listlessly on the floor, before going after Timothy.She finally caught up with Timothy after
“Mr. Burt, you didn’t have to bring flowers.” Karl smirked. “How could I do that? It's not like me to visit a sick patient without bringing something at least.” He pulled up a chair and sat down with his legs crossed. “I just went to check with the doctor. They told me your heartbeat has been very
After Danielle had some fruits in her room, she took a shower and read for half an hour. Then, she heard footsteps on the stairs. She put down the book, got out of bed, and ran to the door. She put her ear against the door, listening to the movements on the other side. She had only just pressed he
“Do you want me to call in sick for you tomorrow?” “Call in sick?” Danielle gestured to her arms. “Just because of this?” “What else? If you work with a hand like that, you’ll get an infection.” Danielle was speechless. “I’m not doing some kind of hard labor, and I’m not in contact with water whi
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
