Tessa nodded and said, "Please come in."

She waited for Lester to enter her office before asking, "Are you here to discuss the Helio case with me? I was about to look for you, actually. The case is a challenging one, so I wanted to get your opinion on it."

"You've been looking troubled lately."

Tessa was stunned for a moment before she asked, "You can tell?"

"Yeah," he answered with a smile. "You're always distracted recently. You're practically carrying a sign over your head that says 'I'm troubled'."

"Is it really that obvious?" she asked while pressing her lips together.
