If it turned out to be true, then she was going to get away from Karl. She had to get as far away as she could from him. Upon noting how Danielle suddenly fell silent, Willow expressed sombrely, “Did... did I accidentally hurt your feelings by telling you about this? Please don't misunderstand. I w
Danielle gave Willow a look. She tended to have a feeling that… there was something about Willow that felt off. She thought about it for a moment and wagered that it was what she would describe as resentment. The look in her eyes, her tone, and down to the things she said were filled with resentme
He thought about his eldest brother, then his second brother, and then he also thought about his third brother when he was younger. It seemed to him that the Burt men all had an invisible weight on their shoulders. Had any one of them ever been happy in the past? At least, his third brother was sl
Seeing how surprised Danielle was, Karl pinched her nose. “Didn’t you say you were going to sleep?” “Get out.” Danielle turned and pointed at the door. “Why? I need to sleep too.” “I’m not going to get involved with someone who has an ambiguous relationship with Luna. Get out.” “Are you mad?” Ka
Danielle instinctively waved her hand. “Gosh, in all honesty, it’s a privilege to be able to attend a lecture from the mighty business tycoon, Karl Burt. I’m an ordinary person, so I’d like to learn from you. The multimedia lecture was… quite the challenge today. I only left because I couldn’t get t
Billy relaxed when Karl agreed to it. He lowered his voice and suggested, “Mr. Burt, Lucy is also an alumnus of your school, and you majored in the same thing. Perhaps she can help you–” “Ms. Simpson as my assistant? Forget it.” Karl cut him off and shook his head. Lucy anxiously stood up and said
Danielle quickly said, “Wait, stop the car.” Charlie immediately stepped on the brakes, and Karl asked, “What’s wrong?” Danielle looked outside the window. “I saw a coworker.” She pointed to where Ava was. Karl looked over and raised his eyebrow. “It looks like you’ve been exposed. Do you need m
When Danielle returned home, Karl was watching the financial news in the living room. Seeing how pleased she looked, he smiled and said, “It seems the problem has been well-resolved.” Danielle skipped to the sofa cheerfully and sat next to him. “Let me tell you something amazing. Do you know how
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
