WantNovelChapter 539
Three days after leaving Sarah's... that was so long ago.
She couldn't imagine how Mia had endured, but the raw marks on her arms told
the story.
Sarah frowned at Mia's scarred arms. "You silly girl. Doesn't it hurt?"
Mia shook her head. "My mind's so chaotic then, | don't even remember doing it. It's like a nightmare - | just
wake up and find the scratches."
"What kind of nightmare?" Sarah asked worriedly.
"Someone trying to grab me, saying they'll drink my blood, eat my flesh. I'm so scared."
Sarah knew these casual descriptions masked Mia's reality - waking up screaming, probably crying herself
hoarse.
Mia's shoulders trembled as she spoke.
"Mia, stop. That's enough," Sarah cut in quickly.
"Sarah, can you help me?" She buried herself in Sarah's embrace.
"Of course | will." Sarah patted her shoulder and stroked her forehead.

Since she'd cunder the pretense of therapy, Mia needed to get to her therapist's office.
In the car, she looked back at Sarah longingly. "I'll csee you again soon."
Meanwhile, Zachary was in his office, watching the Reynolds Group stock fluctuations. The recent market
volatility had finally stabilized.
His assistant knocked hesitantly. "Mr. Reynolds, Miss Wilson would like to have dinner with you tonight."
Zachary frowned, glancing at the Wilson Industries stock movement, but nodded.
"Miss Wilson says she'll pick you up after work," the assistant reported after making the call.
Zachary leaned back in his chair, taking a sip of his lukewarm coffee without caring.
He'd been dodging the engagement talks, and Vivian had stopped pushing lately. But they couldn't avoid it
forever - eventually, one of them would crack.
He'd heard about Sarah's recent trouble. The incident had blown up, and he'd made sure the police handled it
carefully.
Rubbing his temples, he reflected on how he could masterfully handle the business world yet feel so lost when it
cto Sarah.
He lifted the photo stuck to his desk - Sarah's smiling face. Perhaps this was all that kept him going now.
"Mr. Reynolds, board meeting in thirty minutes."
Zachary nodded. "I know."
Outside Reynolds Tower, a woman in casual clothes entered the building. Before
she could reach the elevator, reception stopped her.
"Miss, who are you here to see? Do you have an appointment?"
Sarah paused. "Zachary Reynolds. No appointment."
The receptionist led her to the
waiting area. "Ma'am, ol cany pee

Sarah looked up at the receptionist, meeting her disdainful gaze as she pulled out her phone and dialed.
