Chapter 263

Author: Summer Knowles
Sarah stared blankly at the approaching figure. Why was she here too?

"Miss Wilson, you're here as well?" Sarah forced a smile.

Vivian walked to Zachary's side, casually resting her hand on his arm. "Zachary came with me. Are you feeling unwell, Miss Sanders?"

Sarah lifted her medicine bag. "Yes, a bit."

Vivian held up her own bag, smiling. "Oh? We're getting the same medicine! What a coincidence, on the same day too."

Sarah froze. So Zachary had come for Vivian.

"What a coincidence indeed," she murmured.

She couldn't bear to look at Zachary's face. Under Vivian's gaze, words failed her.

Though she was Zachary's girlfriend, she felt like the other woman caught in the act, as if Vivian were the rightful partner.

"Has Mia improved? Miss Sanders, I've seen the rumors online. I know they're not true," Vivian said kindly.

Sarah nodded slightly. "Mia's showing some improvement, but it's subtle."

Mia stayed behind Sarah, peering timidly at Zachary and Vivian as if they were strange

    "Zachary, Grandpa instructed you to take care of me, and Grandpa William insisted too. If you're not nice to me, I'll have to tell on you!" Vivian matched his pace.Zachary slowed down, suppressing his anger.At the Chancer residence.Since discovering the incident, James had been ignoring Charlotte completely.When she brought coffee to his study, he wouldn't even look at her.After just two days of this treatment, Charlotte felt so suffocated that she even thought of leaving. Seeing that James ignored her again at his study, she finally snapped."James, what do you want from me? Are you still thinking about Sarah? I deleted the article!" she cried.James glanced at her coldly. "Is deleting it enough? What about the damage to Sarah?"Charlotte stumbled, staring at him in disbelief. "So what? You want me to apologize to her? Is that it?""Shouldn't you?" James countered.Charlotte's crying turned to laughter. "I'm your wife, and this is how you treat me? You never used to be

    Her left cheek burned as she covered it with her hand."Get out! Stop bothering me! I'll slap you every time I see you," Sarah said coldly before walking away.Charlotte slowly stood up, holding her cheek. She drove straight to James's office, looking pitifully at him."James, I apologized to Sarah." She moved her hand, revealing an obvious red handprint."What happened to your face?" James asked."Sarah slapped me. She must have been very angry," she said plaintively, hoping for sympathy.Instead, James gave her a cold glance and returned to his computer.Melvin had already started making moves. James had just learned that Melvin was approaching their new business partners."Go home. I'm busy."Charlotte's heart felt like ice.After several consultations with Dr. Rogera, Sarah modified Mia's treatment plan with good results.

    The Reynolds mansion buzzed with activity for William's homecoming. At the ornate rectangular dining table, William sat at the head, with Mr. Wilson next to him, followed by Vivian. Zachary sat on the right."Vivian, come sit by me," William insisted, pointing to Zachary's seat. Vivian exchanged places with Zachary, smiling."To your recovery, Grandpa William." Vivian drained her wine glass while he had tea."You're truly Wilson's granddaughter - so spirited!" William finished his tea in response.During dinner, Vivian checked her phone and stood to greet someone. She returned with Mia and... Sarah."Zachary, Mia should be here for Grandpa William's homecoming. Since she needs Sarah, I invited them both. You don't mind?"He hadn't seen Mia in days."Of course not. Thank you for being so thoughtful," Zachary replied formally, studying Sarah intently. Why had she agreed to come?Sarah and Mia sat in the corner. William acknowledged Sarah with a nod while showing great concern for

    William watched Vivian approvingly. She was Wilson's only grandchild and future heir.Sarah poured juice for Mia, who focused on her dessert.William, not having seen Mia in ages, ordered her favorite dishes. "Miss Sanders, thank you for caring for Mia, especially after the kidnapping incident. The Reynolds family is grateful. Tell Zachary if you need anything."His words, though polite, clearly marked Sarah as an outsider."You're too kind, Mr. Reynolds."Vivian studied Sarah with an unreadable expression, playing the perfect hostess as if to make a point."Miss Sanders, you were unwell when I invited you at the hospital. Don't refuse this time. Brother Zachary hired Ming Zhen's chef to celebrate Grandpa's recovery. Remember we mentioned dining at St. Ritz? This makes up for it," Vivian smiled.Sarah nodded, finally recognizing the familiar taste of the blue shrimp - Steven's cooking.Right then, Steven brought out a dish. "Mr. Reynolds, this is my latest creation, just for yo

    Vivian approached gently. "Mia, Grandpa's waiting. He's worried. Will you say hello to him?"Despite everyone's coaxing, Mia held Sarah's wrist tightly, shaking her head.Seeing Vivian's pleading look, Sarah gently removed Mia's hand. "I won't leave, Mia. I'll be back after you see Grandpa, just like at Melvin’s house - I always return after my walks."Surprisingly, Mia let go and followed Vivian upstairs.Sarah walked to the garden, understanding William's concerns. With the online drama about Mia's worsening condition under her care, anyone would have doubts - especially William, who already disliked her.As the moon rose, Zachary approached.Her heart jumped. They hadn't been alone in ages. She glanced behind him, fearing Vivian's appearance like before."She's not coming," Zachary said, reading her mind.Sarah frowned. So he could only talk to her when Vivian wasn't around?"Won't you explain?" Her voice trembled.Zachary's eyes darkened as he reached for her.She steppe

    Vivian brought Mia in. "Thank you for coming, Professor Watson.”Having already received Mia's medical records, Professor Watson gestured for her to sit. Mia nervously clasped her hands, face pale, staring at her feet."Relax," Wang said gently.Mia sat and closed her eyes, still gripping her clothes anxiously.Wang tried hypnosis, which Mia was familiar with from Sarah's sessions. She fell asleep quickly but wouldn't answer any questions.He checked her records in disbelief. "This has never happened before.""She's been like this since the kidnapping," Vivian noted, thinking how fragile Mia's mind was.Eager to prove himself, he tried entering her subconscious. When he suggested the sky was red, Mia snapped.Her eyes flew open as she pointed at Professor Watson, screaming. Her cries brought William running.He held Mia protectively. "What's wrong? What did you do to her?"Having seen her episodes before, his heart ached. Everyone tried calming her to impress William, making

    Professor Watson was confused, but he nodded. “I am.”“Do you know that Mia’s situation can’t be treated by simply putting her in the same situation?” she asked.Professor Watson’s nerves jumped. He quickly explained, “Miss Sanders, people with psychological trauma often choose this method. I have many years of clinical experience. I understand, although you are just a counselor at the school.”Sarah let out a light laugh. “Mia isn’t dealing with ordinary psychological trauma. She’s already been triggered a second time. If you let her relive these memories, it will only hurt her again.”“I just wanted to help Miss Reynolds. Miss Sanders doesn’t need to attack me. Everyone has their own treatment methods. There’s nothing wrong with trying something new, right?” Professor Watson replied.Sarah didn’t bother to engage further. “Right now, Mia is the priority. I don’t want to continue this conversation with you.”Sarah’s face turned pale with frustration. After finally calming Mia do

    Just after talking with Melvin, Sarah saw the news on her phone.Since Vivian returned, the media had frequently reported on her and Zachary, speculating about their relationship. In addition to the rumors, reporters were also following their every move.#Is Zachary Reynolds proposing to Vivian Wilson with a diamond ring?#There were many headlines like this. Sarah’s fingers trembled as she clicked on one of the news articles.In this particular story, the reporter released a video showing Zachary and Vivian walking into a jewelry store. After about ten minutes, they walked out of the store, and Vivian had a gift box in her hand.The reporter then interviewed a store employee, and after confirming the details, it was clear that Zachary and Vivian had bought a diamond together, and that was the same gift box Vivian was holding when they left the store.Sarah silently turned off the screen. Even though she didn’t want to see it, she still noticed the smile on Zachary’s face.Befor

    Mia tasted the food with a dismissive look. "Sarah, this soup is terrible.""What's that supposed to mean?" Sydney jumped up, glaring at Mia.Even if Mia was a Reynolds, she couldn't take this forever.Mia smirked. "Just stating facts. Or are we not allowed to be honest?"Sydney, expert at playing victim, clutched Melvin's arm. "Melvin, did you hear how rude she's being?""Who are you calling rude?" Mia fixed her with an icy stare. No one had ever dared speak to her like this."Melvin, you saw that. I'm not starting trouble - she is." Sydney gave him an innocent look, tears glistening.Sarah and Mia exchanged disgusted glances. Even Mia found these tactics pathetically obvious - just like Lucy all over again.Melvin's face was blank, though revulsion showed in his eyes. "Let's eat. Annette will cook from now on."Sydney wanted to argue but caught Melvin's expression and stayed quiet.She remembered her aunt's advice: despite Melvin's cold exterior, he had a soft heart, especi

    "Aunt, we should still ask my brother." Sarah insisted.Aunt Amanda's displeasure showed. "Sasa, Melvin is my son. He'll listen to me. I discussed Sydney's internship with him months ago."Months ago - before Sarah had returned.Before she could react, Sydney had already directed the bodyguards to move her luggage to an empty room upstairs.She acted like she owned the place, while Mia hid behind Sarah.Only after Sydney had settled in did Aunt Amanda leave, satisfied."Sarah, is she really going to intern at Sanders Group?" Mia asked quietly.Sarah paused. Why place Sydney at Sanders? She hated the idea of someone she distrusted infiltrating the company. Sanders Group was her parents' legacy - she had to protect it."Mia, go rest for a bit."After Mia left, she called Melvin.“Melvin, about Sydney..."His voice sounded tired. "I know. Mother wants her to stay here for now.""I see." Sarah hung up.She couldn't understand her aunt's motives, or Melvin's thoughts.When Mel

    "Finally I can be with you again. I only feel safe when you're around." Mia sat in the car the Reynolds had sent, clutching Sarah's sleeve in the backseat as if afraid she'd disappear.Sarah noticed her anxious attachment. She'd always known Mia depended on her deeply, but this level made her uneasy.At the Reynolds house, William had retreated inside, leaving Zachary and Vivian standing outside.They stood in silence, Vivian staring at Zachary while he gazed in the direction Sarah had gone."She's been gone for ages. You still won't look at me?" Vivian's voice trembled.Zachary snapped back to reality, his face blank. "No. I'm worried about Mia.""Is it Mia you're worried about, or Sarah?" Vivian sneered.Zachary just glared at her, refusing to answer.As he turned to leave, Vivian blocked his path. "Answer me. Why are you running? Did I hit a nerve? You still love her, don't you?""I don't know what you're talking about," Zachary said coldly.Vivian laughed sharply. "Don't

    "Mr. Reynolds, is there something specific you want to tell me?" Sarah asked, neither humble nor proud."You're clever. Mia trusts and depends on you, but that doesn't erase my concerns. The incident with Tina’s suicide made headlines across the East Coast - how she left only you to blame."Sarah smiled faintly. "I wouldn't expect you to ask such naive questions. Tina’s case was public. If I'd done anything wrong, the psychiatric community would have condemned me. Only those who choose to stay blind believe otherwise."Her boldness surprised him. He studied her with renewed interest."Miss Sanders, you're intriguing. But that alone isn't enough to stand as Zachary's equal."Sarah shook her head. "Mr. Reynolds, I've never sought to be with Zachary. Besides, isn't Vivian your choice? Zachary and I are done. I'm only here because you sent for me."William chuckled. "True, the Sanders family can't compare to the Wilsons. I've known Vivian since childhood - I know exactly who she is.

    "It's alright, Mia. I'm here."Sarah covered Mia's eyes with her hand, guiding her to the bed and helping her lie down."Just relax..."Under Sarah's gentle care, Mia finally fell into a peaceful sleep. Minutes later, she woke, lucid this time.Calm now, she looked around at Zachary and William.“Zachary, Grandpa, Sarah - oh, and Vivian, you're here too?" She brightened at seeing everyone, seemingly with no memory of her episode.William studied Sarah intently. He'd brought in many therapists and knew how Mia responded to them. None had connected like Sarah.Mia showed an inexplicable trust in Sarah, able to calm instantly at the sight of her."Just checking on you," Sarah said softly."Sarah..." Mia glanced nervously at Vivian.She knew well the complicated relationship between Sarah, Vivian, and Zachary. Why were they both here?Unless...?She looked at her brother, finding his expression unreadable.William turned to Vivian warmly. "Vivian, you're here too. Let's have s

    "Is that a threat?" Sarah scoffed. "I'm seeing Zachary because of Mia.""Whatever the reason, if Zachary and his grandfather don't want you treating Mia anymore, you should just disappear. Stay away from them." Vivian's voice dripped with venom.Sarah narrowed her eyes, suddenly leaning in so close their faces nearly touched. A chill ran down Vivian's spine."Aren't you overstepping? Not everything needs your control, Vivian. Mia's my friend. Of course I'll help when she's in trouble."Vivian sneered. "Don't be ridiculous. Their grandfather and Zachary have found dozens of renowned therapists. You really think you're more qualified? Are you really helping Mia, or using her condition to get close to Zachary?""Shut up. There may be many qualified people, but I've been treating Mia all along. No one knows her condition better than I do. As for Zachary - we're over. I won't go back. You don't need to be so threatened."Vivian burst into mocking laughter. "Me? Threatened? You don't k

    Mia calmed slightly at the familiar voice. Her frantic movements slowed, the pillow she'd meant to throw falling to the floor. She stared at Zachary with wary confusion, her guard dropping only when she finally recognized him."Brother?" she tested uncertainly.The worry in Zachary's eyes softened. "Yes, Mia. It's me, your brother."He approached slowly, careful not to startle her, gently removing the cup from her left hand."Mia, look at my face. I'm your brother.""Brother?" she murmured, then her expression twisted. "Liar! You want to kill me, don't you? You want to eat me!" The word "eat" seemed to trigger her deepest terrors.Her face contorted as she crouched down, hugging herself. "Don't eat me, please don't!"Zachary looked at his sister with pain, cautiously placing a hand on her shoulder. "Don't be scared, Mia. I'm here to protect you.""You're lying! You said you'd protect us but never came! Sarah was eaten and you never came! You lied to us!" Mia sobbed hysterically

    She left without waiting for Zachary's response, not looking back.At the restaurant, Vivian and Zachary sat at the best window table, their food already served."Zachary, try this!" Vivian said eagerly. "This steak's even better than that Kobe beef we had in Japan."Zachary mechanically cut a piece and took a bite. The meat was indeed good."So," Vivian asked, feigning casualness, "what did Miss Sanders want earlier?"Zachary frowned slightly. "That's private.""Why so hostile? I just care about you. If she needs help, maybe I could assist?" Vivian's voice turned hurt.Zachary put down his cutlery and looked at her coolly. "Actually, there is one thing you could help with.""What is it?"A cold smile played at his lips. "Stay in your lane."Vivian's smile froze, her body tensing. She forced a laugh. "What do you mean?""Nothing at all," Zachary said, taking another bite.After dinner, Vivian dabbed her lips. The meal had been tasteless.She hadn't mentioned the engagement

    Sarah looked at Zachary gravely. "Mia's condition is deteriorating. I need to continue her treatment."Zachary's fingers drummed lightly on his desk, disapproval written across his face. "That's...""What? Don't you trust me?" Sarah raised an eyebrow."Of course I trust you. I've never doubted your professional ability. I just..." Just want to prevent what might happen - like you leaving me when you learn the truth.But he'd never tell her that.Sarah knew Zachary well. Something specific was making him hesitate. Those strange photographs? Or that drawing Mia had made?Though she suspected he wouldn't answer, she had to ask. "Tell me why."Zachary froze. "I'm sorry. I can't."He couldn't say anything until he'd figured out his explanation.Sarah gave a bitter laugh. "Is it because of Tina’s incident? Or what happened when Mia had her episode at the school gates? I know you don't believe those online rumors, but I can't think of any reason you'd willingly stop Mia's treatment,
