He lunged at Sarah again.The study door flew open.Zachary stormed in, his face dark with fury. Without hesitation, he rushed forward and drove a punch straight into Leon’s face.“You dare hit me?” Leon groaned as he crashed to the floor.Zachary sneered coldly. “You and that so-called psychiatrist were working together to set me up. I caught on. If anything, you’re the one I should be dealing with.”He grabbed Sarah’s hand and pulled her toward the door. Before leaving, he added flatly, “That psychiatrist has already passed out. I’d advise you not to make a scene.”Sarah allowed herself to be dragged out of the study, but not before saying calmly, “This treatment session is over.”They got into the black Cayenne, and Zachary stepped hard on the gas, speeding out of the villa compound.Only then did Sarah finally exhale. “We got it. No surprises.”When they reached the Sanders residence, she handed the USB drive to Zachary. “Give this to Steven. Let me know the moment there’s

What she hadn’t expected was that even then, Mrs. Sanders still refused to return the phone.A flicker of suspicion rose in Sarah’s chest.Why was she so determined to stop her?Sarah tightened her grip on one edge of the phone. “I’ll just make one call. It won’t take long.”“I said no means no!” Mrs. Sanders snapped.The sharpness of her own voice startled her. She quickly softened it, forcing a smile. “Sarah, don’t be upset. I just don’t want you skipping dinner.”“Mom,” Melvin said coldly, “give her phone back.”In that brief moment of distraction, Sarah yanked the phone free. She shot Melvin a grave look, silently pointing out how abnormal Mrs. Sanders’s behavior was.Then she walked straight out of the dining room, into the restroom, and dialed Dr. Xavier’s number.Her heart pounded.She had known someone would eventually move against Dr. Xavier. She just hadn’t expected it to happen this fast.No matter what, she had to keep him alive. The truth depended on it.The cal

In the next instant, the sharp blade came down again, plunging toward him.Then he realized there wasn’t just one knife.Countless blades surged at him from every direction. Each one was aimed at the same place. Each one wanted him dead.He fought back desperately, arms raised, body twisting, but it was useless. No matter how he tried to defend himself, the knives seemed locked onto him, homing in without mercy.One by one, they pierced his body.Pain exploded everywhere.A massive face suddenly loomed in front of him, filling his vision.He screamed.Dr. Xavier jolted awake, gasping for air, his chest heaving violently. The sheets were soaked through with sweat.His wife sat up beside him, worry etched across her face. “What’s wrong with you? Our son wanted to come cuddle with you, but when he saw you like this, he got scared.”Dr. Xavier wiped the sweat from his forehead with a tissue. “Just… a nightmare.”He forced himself to sit up and looked toward his son. “It’s okay.

Uncle Shawn didn’t argue again. His silence was as good as agreement.“I think our first step should be pulling more people into this game,” Mrs. Sanders said calmly. “And I think Sarah would make excellent bait.”Uncle Shawn frowned.“That won’t work. The moment she steps onto the board, Melvin will follow. That idiot doesn’t know what spell he’s under. No matter what happens, he insists on standing beside that girl.”Mrs. Sanders shook her head.“That’s exactly why Sarah is the best choice. You’re forgetting who stands behind her. Zachary.”“If he enters the game, we finally have a fighting chance.”This time, Uncle Shawn didn’t object.---At City General Hospital, Steven stood with Sarah outside the ward.“Some of the data is still encrypted. I haven’t fully cracked it yet,” he said quietly. “But there’s something strange. In the surveillance footage outside Leon’s villa, I found someone suspicious.”He paused, then said carefully,“I think it’s Mrs. Sanders. She went into

Mrs. Sanders was genuinely shaken.She had always been meticulous. She never left evidence behind.So how had Melvin found out this time?Her gaze snapped toward Sarah. She suddenly pointed at her, voice sharp and hysterical.“It was you. It had to be you. You deliberately led my son into turning against me. Are you satisfied now? Is this what you wanted?”Sarah looked at the woman in front of her, nearly unrecognizable in her frenzy. What Mrs. Sanders didn’t realize was that the real evidence wasn’t in Sarah’s hands at all.It was already in Melvin’s.Sarah replied calmly, her voice cold and steady.“Auntie, you might as well tell the truth. This isn’t something small that can be brushed aside.”“I didn’t do anything,” Mrs. Sanders shot back. “What exactly do you expect me to say?”Melvin let out a slow breath. He unlocked his phone and opened the screenshots Steven had sent him. He turned the screen toward her.“This is footage from the surveillance camera at Leon’s villa,”
