Chapter 10

Author: Summer Knowles
The barbecue lasted well into the afternoon, with drinks flowing and laughter filling the air, creating the kind of warmth that makes strangers feel like old friends.

Sarah slipped away during the festivities to claim her prize, accompanied by a staff member. As the winner, she had her choice of either the horse she'd ridden or any other animal from the estate's collection. Though drawn to the horses, she chose a young deer instead, believing horses weren't meant to be kept as pets.

As she finished making her choice, a security guard approached. "Miss Sanders? Mr. Reynolds would like a word."

There was only one Reynolds who commanded that kind of respect - Zachary Reynolds.

Upstairs, she found him lounging by the window while Steven mixed drinks, purple liquid catching the light as ice clinked against crystal.

Steven's eyes sparkled with mischief when he saw her. “You must be special - boss never shares his private collection with anyone."

He wasn't even trying to hide what he wa

    Sarah was drifting in and out of consciousness, but she could still make out his words. “What… did you say?”“You don’t believe me?” Leon’s smile turned sly. “They’re at Springbar right now. Who knows what they’re talking about? Aren’t you curious?”Sarah lunged for her phone, but he held it high above her head.“Have you made up your mind, Miss Sanders?”She gritted her teeth and pinched her thigh again, hard. “Give it back! You’re not getting your way!”Leon’s expression darkened, his voice low and dangerous. “So you’d rather fight me than cooperate?”His patience had run out. With a flick of his wrist, he hurled her phone across the room, then grabbed her arm and dragged her toward the sofa in the back.“What are you doing?! Let go of me! Leon Spencer!” Sarah screamed.“Let go? You’ve got to be kidding me. Do you know how much effort it took to get you here? That drug wasn’t easy to get either.”He shoved her down onto the sofa. “Stop struggling already. Whatever Zachary ca

    “You’re unbelievable, Zachary!” Vivian shouted, completely losing her temper.Just then, the door to the private room flew open.A man Sarah had never seen before stepped inside, and Vivian immediately turned her fury on him. “Who are you? Are you out of your mind barging in like that?”But the man ignored her completely. His eyes went straight to Zachary as he bowed slightly. “Mr. Reynolds.”Zachary’s expression darkened instantly. The man was one of his people, someone he had assigned to keep an eye on Sarah. His sudden appearance could only mean one thing—something had happened.Sure enough, the man leaned in and whispered a few urgent words in Zachary’s ear. In the next second, Zachary’s face changed drastically.“Take me there.”“Where are you going?” Vivian’s eyes widened. She hadn’t expected this stranger to know Zachary, let alone show up to take him away.Zachary didn’t even glance at her. He followed the man straight toward the door.Vivian rushed to block his path.

    What Sarah didn’t know was that Lysander wasn’t acting alone. He had help. This whole setup had been carefully planned.“What did you just say?” Zachary’s grip on his phone tightened so hard his knuckles turned white. The air around him seemed to thicken with pressure.Even over the phone, Vivian could feel the shift. She took a quiet breath, forcing her voice to stay calm. “Didn’t you want to know what really happened to your grandfather that day? Why he suddenly passed out? I can tell you.”Zachary had never trusted her, and now they were basically on opposing sides. “What’s the catch?”Vivian only needed to stall him. She paused, then shifted her tone, adding a trace of wistfulness. “If I say there’s no catch, you won’t believe me anyway.”Before Zachary could respond, she continued, “I’ll be at Springbar on Mindy Street. Twenty minutes. I’ll tell you everything face to face—if you’re willing to come.”With that, she hung up.Zachary didn’t hesitate. He got up immediately, re

    Leon put on a dejected look. “To be honest with you, Miss Sanders, today’s my birthday. I’ve always spent it alone. But ever since I met you, it finally feels like I’m actually living.”Wealthy families always came with their own baggage. Sarah had no idea what he’d been through—and frankly, she wasn’t interested. But seeing the seriousness in his eyes, she decided to give him the benefit of the doubt—just this once.“Fine. I’ll sit with you for a bit. But remember what you said: after today, don’t come looking for me again.”Leon let out a wry smile. “You really are heartless.”Sarah sat down nearby. He reheated the tea and handed her a fresh cup. “Try this. Their silver needle tea is really something.”She rarely drank tea, but maybe because it felt like she’d finally shaken off a headache, she didn’t refuse this time.Lifting the delicate glass cup, she took a small sip. The subtle fragrance gently wrapped around her taste buds, leaving a lingering aftertaste that was surprisi

    Seeing that he had finally agreed to the exchange, Melvin didn't try to stop him.The next day at Adams University.“Miss Sanders, there's trouble! You need to come to the cafeteria across from campus right away. A student is causing a scene, says they're your patient." The woman on the phone sounded urgent and hung up immediately, giving Sarah no chance to ask questions.Another colleague in the office saw Sarah freeze and said considerately, “Miss Sanders, should I come with you? If it really is your patient saying things in public, it could hurt your reputation."Sarah took off her blue-light glasses and shook her head. "That's not what matters. I'm worried the student has been triggered by something."With that, she grabbed her bag to leave, telling her colleague, "Don't come—someone needs to stay in the office."Sarah rushed there, but it wasn't as serious as the phone call had made it sound.She walked in suspiciously, looking around at the peaceful atmosphere, then approa

    As soon as he got in his car, his phone rang."Who is it?" he answered warily. The voice on the other end was bone-chillingly cold. "Dr. Xavier, you seem to have a selective memory. Let me remind you—when exactly do you plan to pay back this money? You've been dodging us, not answering calls. Are you planning to break our agreement?"Dr. Xavier said frantically, "No! I'm not—I just don't have the money right now. Give me two more days!"The person on the phone burst into laughter. "Dr. Xavier, do your wife and son know about this? If push comes to shove, we could use them as collateral, though I doubt they'd fetch much."Dr. Xavier was terrified. "Don't! Don't touch my wife and son! I'll pay you back, I swear!""Fine. Two more days—that's it. If you still haven't paid up, I don't think your family needs to keep breathing."The line went dead. Dr. Xavier sat there shaken, gasping for air. What was he going to do?Where could he possibly get the remaining money?He returned to th
