Ava sighed. "Claire is not in critical condition, but… Poor Hugo.""What happened?" Danielle inquired."When I arrived at the hospital, I saw Claire's father beating up Hugo in the corridor with many people watching. I wanted to intervene, but Hugo shook his head when he saw me in the crowd. I knew
Danielle received a call from Ava at noon. Learning that Ava was at the police station, Danielle had Charlie immediately drive her there after work. When they arrived, they found Ava and Hugo with Claire's father still berating them.Ava approached Danielle and said, "Ms. Wendell, I told you not to
“Aunt Alice, don't worry, stay calm. I'm on my way to your house."After hanging up, Danielle dialed Karl's number."Are you busy?" she asked."I'm not busy if you're looking for me. What's up?" Karl replied."If you have the time, can you accompany me to the Kleins’?" Danielle requested."Is this a
Hugo confidently approached Claire's father, looking down on him."I spent over four million on your daughter during our relationship, just on the designer brands she brought home. Because of her interference, I lost a job that paid two million a year. And I bought the house you're living in now out
After speaking, Willow turned and took the food basket from her housekeeper. She walked over to the dining table, smiling at Danielle. "Ms. Wendell, my cooking skills might not be great, but I'm decent with pastries. You should try some."Danielle looked at Willow's face but remained silent. However
Upon hearing these words, Timothy, who was focused on playing a video game, glanced at Karl and Danielle. He remembered that when Karl was picking a movie earlier, he had mentioned liking this film.Willow turned to Henry and said, "This movie is quite good."Henry nodded and spoke gently, "Then, wa
Henry expressed coldly, "You’re not the only Burt here. I am, too. As a member of the Burt family, I have the right and the authority to voice my opinions about the Whites."As Karl stood up, Timothy also stood up and walked to Karl's side, pressing him back into his seat."Karl, sit. I would like t
After lunch, everyone returned to their rooms to rest. Danielle took a nap and woke up feeling bored, so Karl suggested, "How about we watch a movie this time?"She gave him a sidelong glance and replied, not too pleased, "Another movie that both you and Willow like?"He chuckled and said, "I'm hap
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
