Chapter 838

Seeing Sarah like this, Leon finally dropped his suspicions. He figured maybe she'd been too out of it last night to remember clearly. Maybe she even thought it had all been some trick pulled by Zachary.

That thought relaxed him.

He looked at her with burning intensity and asked, "Sarah, what really happened last night? You can tell me I'll do everything I can to help."

Sarah shook her head, her expression firm. "No need, Mr. Spencer. I'll handle it myself. But... how's your psychological condition these days?"

The sudden mention of his mental health caught him off guard. For a second, he froze then a wave of satisfaction washed over him.

They both knew the mental illness thing was fake. But the fact that Sarah brought it up herself? That had to mean she wanted to get closer to him.

Trying not to show his unease, he looked at her and asked softly, "It hasn't gotten better. Miss Sanders, do you happen to have a new treatment method?"

Sarah had been waiting for this opening. She stood up slowly and walked toward him, voice gentle and soothing. "Mr. Spencer, I've actually been working on a new approach. But I've never tried it on anyone before. Would you be willing to be my first test subject?"
