Daniel’s chest would suffer from excruciating pain whenever he heard the mate he deeply loved saying she wanted to “leave him.”He clenched his teeth. “I will never let you two leave. I want us to be together forever, and I made myself very clear about that.”“Then you can consider this condition of yours moot because I will never agree to it.” Heather looked at the man. “Are you going to use this one year and try changing my opinion of you, or would you prefer that I be the woman who hates you forever?”Heather took a step back, breaking herself free from Daniel’s embrace before she calmly said, “Make your choice.”When posed with the choice, Daniel understood that that was not his decision to make. He was very clear that everything he now has was not love, but dominance over someone he could not obtain.‘One year will give me enough time to deplete your patience toward me, or even for me to escape from your grasp.’After struggling for a long time, Daniel’s shoulders relaxed, and he

Whenever Heather was with her family, her life would become very normal, and time would pass by slower. However, one’s mood would gradually fall into a tranquil state, and Heather greedily wanted to enjoy this serenity a little longer, which caused her to lose track of time.The sky had already turned dark by the time she had planned to go back.Evan offered to drive Heather and Jeremi back. She did not refuse since it had been a very long time before they both got reunited.“When are you planning on leaving?” Heather asked.“I’m not going to leave for the time being. I’ve rented a place nearby.”“Do you have some kind of matter you need to look into?”Evan looked at Heather and rubbed his nose. Nodding his head, he said, “Yes, There’s someone I like here, so I wish to accompany her.”Heather stopped and seemed very surprised. “Oh my God! I wasn’t expecting for you to be in a relationship already! Who’s the lucky girl?”Evan embarrassedly smiled. “She hasn’t agreed to go out with me y

After Daniel had confirmed that Kasey had planted a spy within his ranks, he had asked Colin to look into the matter. It only took Colin a short time before he found out that the spy was Percy.After a few days, they finally managed to catch the culprit.Daniel did not return to his bedroom to rest. Instead, he rubbed his tired eyes and grabbed his car keys.It was already noon the next day when he returned home.Heather had just come out of Jeremi’s bedroom when she saw Daniel, whose eyes had huge dark bags beneath them.‘Looks like he hasn’t been asleep for the whole night. I wonder if he’s gone out to handle something.’“Heather, I’ve caught the person who exposed our movements back at the theme park.”Heather very quickly reacted to the matter. “Who was it?”Daniel then slowly uttered Percy’s name, leaving Heather dumbfounded.She recalled the time when the man had been accompanying her in the basement back when Kasey had severely injured her. Filled with disbelief, she said, “It

Percy was very quickly sent to the hospital. Thanks to Daniel’s arrangement, he received the best treatment from the hospital and was back on his feet very soon. Heather felt much more relaxed now that she was reunited with her family, which led to her treating Daniel a lot better than she did before. She thought, ‘This is only going to last for a year. It’s not that long of a period, so I could try to adjust my attitude and treat Daniel a little better.’However, there are just some things in life that would disappear once missed. Take a shattered glass, for example. There’s no way it can be left without scars, even if it gets glued back together. ‘I’m still going to leave at the end of all this.’“Thank you,” Heather said to Daniel at the dinner table. Daniel was startled for a moment before he asked, “What for?”“Thank you for not only sparing my brother, but even taking him under your wing.” Heather then pursed her lips and continued, “I know he’s committed a grave sin, so you
