...Margaret gaped at the scene.Apart from Siena five years ago, she had never seen Daniel so frantic for anyone.It didn't make any sense because he had always treated Kimberly with indifference. But now, when she was gone, he was suddenly so fixated on her.Margaret couldn't process it, but Daniel's hand was bleeding. She had to set aside her questions and call the family doctor to bandage him.Daniel, drenched in sweat from the pain, demanded, "Tell me where Kimberly is, or I'll let this hand go to waste."Margaret was furious, disappointed that her son would hurt himself over women again and again.But then, she calmed herself and replied coldly, "I don't know where she went. The contract is over, and I have no reason to pry into her private life."Daniel's eyes turned crimson, and he yelled, "Impossible! You signed a contract with her. There is no way you don't know. Tell me where Kimberly is. I need to find her."Unable to bear it any longer, Margaret slapped him hard,

...Kimberly turned to see a man with shiny short hair and fair skin. His handsome face was lit by a pair of bright eyes that pulled her into memories.His name was Gray Ortiz. They'd dated briefly in college, but months into the relationship, he had left to study abroad.Separated by distance, they had broken up within a week. She had never imagined meeting him again like this.They walked side by side down the street and entered a convenience store where they found a table and ordered some snacks.Gary gazed at her profile. "I can hardly tell if this is reality or a dream."Kimberly smiled, and he continued, "Remember college? We were broke, always eating snacks at convenience stores. Who would have thought, years later, we'd sit together like this?"Kimberly sighed, memories flooding back like a tidal wave. Back then, she was young and carefree, yet to meet Daniel.Gary tilted his head, curious. "I heard from our classmates that you got married. How is that going? Are you ha

...Kimberly stiffened as the very thing she dreaded happened.Henry clung to her leg, refusing to let go despite her efforts to pry him away. His attitude was a stark contrast to before when he always scorned her presence.In the end, she managed to push him away. Her expression was cold and distant.Henry was confused by her indifference. She used to pamper him so much.She had been absent from his life for a whole year now. When she was finally back, he received nothing but her rejection.Tears welled up in Daniel's eyes. He croaked, "Kimberly, where have you been all this time? I searched everywhere but couldn't find you. Henry and I miss you so much. Come home with us."His tone was earnest, but Kimberly was untouched."Daniel, come on. You know we can't go back," she said.Unconvinced, he reached for her hand, but she stepped back. "Things ended a year ago. Please respect that."Her icy tone felt foreign to him. The old Kimberly was always gentle and had never spoken ha

...After the business meeting, Kimberly stepped out to see a flashy Maybach.The one leaning against the car body was none other than Daniel.Kimberly blinked, surprised by his appearance. She hadn't told anyone about this deal, yet he found her there.Spotting her, he hurried over. "Kimberly, can we talk?"Kimberly hesitated for a moment before getting into his car. There were things she needed to make clear with him.While driving, he glanced sideways at her. "I hear that you founded a novel company."She nodded but remained silent.Undeterred, he continued, "How did I never notice your interest in writing before?"Kimberly gave a wry smile. "Well, it's because you never cared to know me."Daniel paused, ready to explain, but they arrived at their destination.In the coffee shop, they ordered drinks.Kimberly took a sip, and Daniel began, "The past year has been tough for both Henry and me."She felt nothing about it. "Oh? Well, I'm doing way better than before."Danie

...The police arrived, handcuffing Siena.Her face was ashen, but she didn't resist.Kimberly grabbed Daniel's hand, anxious. "Hang on. The ambulance is coming."Daniel, with all his strength, rasped, "I'm sorry. I owed you and had to repay it."Ten minutes later, he was rushed to the ER. Hours of surgery finally stabilized his condition.Kimberly delayed her return to Asteron, staying to care for him as she once did.He opened his eyes, and the first person he saw was her. She gave him water and checked on him.He stared at her silently, his tears rolling onto the white pillow. Choking, he said, "It's been so long since we've been together calmly like this."Kimberly said nothing, rising to call the doctor.He called after her, "Thank you. I won't bother you anymore."His voice was hoarse, tinged with sadness and regret. Kimberly paused, but she didn't turn back.After informing the doctor, she left the hospital.Now that Daniel had woken up, she felt no need to stay the
