Danielle rolled her eyes at Karl and observed his seemingly innocent expression. She was sure of what she witnessed this time. How could she have been mistaken? “When did I buy clothes for Willow?” Karl asked her with a relatively straight face. “On Saturday. I went shopping with Mrs. Yves when s
“No, she was just venting to me. You’re going to be an uncle soon.” “She’s pregnant?” Danielle nodded. “Yeah, but it doesn’t look like she wants to keep the baby. It’s your brother who insists on her having the baby.” “Why doesn't she want the baby?” “She says she’s worried about people making f
“I don’t want things to turn out like this either.” Willow wept. “This is just as hard for me. Do you think I would easily make such a decision? If I were truly so cold-blooded, I would’ve aborted the child long ago instead of troubling myself over it for so long. Karl, you have truly let me down.
She wanted to wring herself free, but that only made Karl deepen the kiss. Once satisfied with the kiss, he slowly let go of her with a determined look in his eyes. “So? Did you taste tobacco?” Danielle frowned and looked at the cigarette butt on the ground. A quarter of it was missing, which mea
Since Willow had moved out, Karl took Danielle back to the villa to stay. Karl did not want her to have to make her meals living in Mason Neighbourhood. Thursday afternoon was the last game of the basketball tournament. Timothy, probably filled with motivation, played with extra vigor. He lived
Karl smiled. He should certainly attend. After all, Danielle could not hold her drink. If someone got her drunk… At least he could be there to address the situation. … Danielle never knew her students could drink so much.They started at 6 p.m., and only 15 minutes had passed when they finished
Lucy was embarrassed, and Billy quickly said, “Mr. Burt, don’t be offended. Lucy has been spoiled by me. I thought she could gain some insights from meeting and listening to you more often since you’re such an outstanding man.” Karl responded, “I came here for Timothy, not your daughter. Have you a
Danielle thought of Willow and Henry when she heard what Karl said. He was once bitten, twice shy after what happened. Danielle pouted and answered, “To me, Tim is just a younger brother that I like a lot. That’s all.” Karl asked, “Are you sure?” Danielle frowned and asked, “What are you suspect
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
