Her playful gestures reminded Karl of last night when they were getting into it inside the car. He suddenly pressed forward and pinned her against the wall. Danielle tensed up. Karl grinned mischievously and whispered, “There’s something I forgot to tell you this morning.” “W-What are you talkin
“Be careful with making accusations like that.” Danielle was vexed. “If you want to make claims like that, you should have proof. What proof do you have it was Karl who moved your mother into a nursing home?” “It has to be him. He was the one who brought up the idea of moving my mom out of the priv
“Well… Do you have anything to do with Jules’ disappearance?” Karl stared at her for a moment before asking suggestively, “What do you think?” “Noah is convinced you have something to do with it. I told him it’s impossible, but if I have to be honest, my gut feeling is telling me you should be inv
Danielle made a face. Fine! She would not listen. After Karl left the office, he went to a small conference room next door. At last, he picked up the call. Noah asked, “Karl, where did you send my mother off to?” “About that… You’re asking the wrong person.” Noah probed anxiously, “You don’t wa
“That's why we have to sell the house.” “Do you have any idea where my mother ended up?” Elsa turned to Luna. Luna cocked a look at him. “I told you I sent her to a nursing home.” “She's not there. I tried looking for her.” “Well, maybe she decided she shouldn’t add to our troubles and went and
Teddy snapped at her, “You shut your mouth, you shameless woman. You might not care for dignity, but I do.” Luna stamped her feet. “You already owe tens of thousands of dollars in medical bills, why do care about dignity? Is dignity going to help you pay off your debt? Danielle already hates you. H
Danielle was unfazed. “Go ahead and sue me then. You keep going on about how I’m obliged to help, but what happens even if you do win the lawsuit? I only make four thousand a month. All I can do is give you a thousand a month, so how would that help you? “For someone like you, it’s barely enough fo
“You are... Karl Burt, the third eldest son of the Burts.” Jule spoke with a frown, “How could it be you? How’d you get here?” Karl pulled a chair toward himself and sat down with his legs crossed. He regarded Jules with an indifferent look. “How do you think?” Jules grew nervous. “Was… Was it yo
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
