… It was rather late when Karl returned. Danielle sat halfway into the bed and was staring at the door. After some time passed, there was still no movement at the door. It sounded like Karl had gone back to his room. Perhaps… he was angry. After all, he must have never been constantly rejected
There were dozens of offices down the corridor, but... the footsteps stopped right at Danielle’s office. She was beyond frightened. That was when she heard a knock on the door. She covered her mouth and nearly shrieked out of fear. That was when she heard the same knock again. She removed her h
Danielle bit her lip, “I haven’t made any plans for what I’ll do in the future. I just thought that since I have made things clear with you, it’s best to keep my distance. Our relationship stops at being only friends. We cannot go any further than that.” “So, your plan is to sleep in the college of
“Well, congratulations for living in a well-located place with great vibes.” Danielle shrugged. Karl rolled his eyes at her and asked, “Are you provoking me on purpose?” “What else do you want me to say?” “My place has great vibes and will keep all the bad luck away. Don’t you think it complement
As Danielle shouted hoarsely in despair, Max suddenly realized he had crossed the line. Even when she caught him in bed with Rochelle, she did not seem as heartbroken. Max stepped forward, wanting to hold her arms. However, Danielle took a step back and kept her distance from him. Max was much s
“Childish?” Karl frowned. “I’m doing something within my power to pursue you. Is that childish?” Danielle questioned him, “What you consider to be within your power is letting me live in your place without my knowledge?” “I had someone break down someone’s door to find you at the time. Since I did
Danielle no longer thought about moving out of Karl’s place. As he said, since he would follow her if she moved out, it would be safer to stay with him. With that, Danielle focused on her students. Timothy worked hard and managed to make the college’s basketball team as a main player. Due to his
Back at the villa, Danielle went back to her room and sat sullenly by the window. Her mind was wandering when Karl came in, so she did not hear him. He walked up to her and hugged her from behind. Startled, Danielle dodged to the side. Karl let go of her and chuckled. “What are you thinking abou
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
