Danielle frowned sharply. “Stop trying to dig for things to be upset about. I already told you that I was very fond of him at the time, and since we didn’t get to meet much, of course, I remember him.” “Stop saying that you are fond of him.” Karl hissed sharply and was filled with jealousy, “Go on.
Karl's face darkened, he clenched his jaw and growled, “So, it’s just me and Max that you hate?” Danielle shot him another look. “When did I ever say that I hate you?” She might not say it, but it was obvious enough judging by her actions! “Phone.” Karl spread his palms out, fully expecting her t
Upon noticing Danielle's baffled expression, Charlie commented, “Miss Wendell, you are… well… very different from your usual self when drunk.” Danielle blushed and smiled stiffly at him, then she took the teddy bear and retreated into the house. She hated alcohol. It was the one thing she hated mos
He smiled mischievously. “I agree with what you said just now. You won’t feel the same kind of passion about things as an adult compared to when you’re a child. It’s the same with people.” Danielle stared at him with a confused expression. What was he talking about? “You may have liked Henry as a
“Cough… Cough…” Danielle was not drinking anything, but she choked anyway when she heard Karl’s words.Danielle stared at Karl’s face for a long time to make sure that he was not joking. Then, she said, “You want me to take responsibility for you?”“Why not? Why is it that men are expected to take r
“This isn’t a matter of admitting my fault. As you said, I was drunk last night, and I don’t remember what happened. It’s a he-said, she-said situation, so why should I just believe you? Maybe you saw how drunk I was and decided to prey on me! Then, after getting your way, you blame me instead.”Aft
Danielle breathed a sigh of relief and went downstairs to have dinner.The table was set. As soon as Danielle sat down, Karl asked, “Would you like a drink?”Danielle rolled her eyes and said irritably, “No. I will never drink in front of you again.”“Who are you going to drink in front of?”“It’s n
When Danielle arrived at the dean’s office, Mr. Simpson said enthusiastically, “Dan, did you get home alright that day?”Danielle nodded and smiled. “Yeah. I just had a headache when I woke up the next day, but everything else is fine.”“Haha! Well, you’re quite bold when you’re drunk. You pointed a
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
