Henry chuckled sarcastically, “You women sure are a cunning species. You don’t seem to care at all when I’m nice to you, but the moment I start scowling, you get in line immediately.” “Hen-… Henry.,,” “I’m afraid you went and vented to the wrong person, did you think that Timothy was going to help
Karl grunted, “Eat.” Although he was aware of the true nature of their relationship now, it still bothered him to hear about this. He wondered if his possessive personality was stressful for Danielle. Timothy left after the meal. Since it had been a while since he came back, he wanted to meet his
Karl darted a glance up the stairs, then he motioned Dave over. “Go to the study.” “Yes, sir.” Dave told the other housemaids to leave before going to the study with Karl. The moment he entered, he handed the document to Karl. Karl asked, “Have you read it yet?” “No. I figured it’s more appropr
With that, she started eating. Karl chuckled at the sight of her running out of points to argue with. Dave, who was watching their entire exchange play out, was very relieved. Halfway through the meal, Danielle announced, “I want to go back to work.” Karl knew it was going to be a matter of time
Danielle had an impression that Karl was a true master when it came to romance. After quickly unpacking her clothes, she walked out of the dresser. She then stole a look at the clock before turning to Karl. “It's almost eight. Burtie is already sleeping, and I’m thinking I’ll sleep earlier tonight
Her mother's depression started with symptoms of insomnia... Most people did not see insomnia as a sign of disease, but it was a terrifying thing for Danielle. Karl nodded. “If you feel uncomfortable at any point, just tell me and I’ll sleep on the floor or go to another room instead. I don’t want
The White Company’s eldest daughter, Luna White, was released from prison only today. Luna showed up on the live broadcast wearing a mask and avoiding the cameras by keeping her head down. Teddy and Elsa had gone to collect her with Noah keeping them safe. Meanwhile, Clara was still going on about
Danielle sneered, “With the current state of your family, are you sure you have what it takes to go up against me and Crest Empire?” “You don't need to bring the Burts and Crest Empire into this. Right now, you’re the only one I have a problem with.” “I had hoped that you might learn a lesson afte
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
