Chapter 108 A Token of Thanks
Sierra thanked Oscar again and had even prepared a small gift for him.
“Dr. Zahn, I really appreciate what you did. I hope you don’t mind this small gift.”
Sierra slid the gift across the table towards Oscar, who gave a wry smile. “I already told you, it was nothing. You don’t have to be so formal“
Even as he said that, he still accepted it. He could tell Sierra didn’t like owing people favors.
Sure enough, the moment he took the gift, she visibly relaxed.
Oscar had briefly thought about refusing the gift, but Sierra’s attitude made it clear she wanted him to take it.
The conversation soon shifted to Lily’s health, and Sierra also asked about therapists, figuring Oscar might have some recommendations.
I have a former classmate who specializes in psychology. I can give you her contact info–you can reach out if you need advice. Is this about Dickson?” Oscar asked, sensing the reason behind her question.
“Yeah” Sierra didn’t hide it, simply explaining that Dickson had been struggling lately.
On the surface, he seemed fine, but mentally, he was still struggling. He wouldn’t leave the house, only calling Lily, and he refused to go anywhere near a hospital.
“I’m not a psychologist, but I do know that recovery takes time. If he trusts you, just being there for him will help more than anything.
“I understand. Thank you, Dr. Zahn Sierra’s gratitude was sincere.
She had been spending as much time with Dickson as possible, afraid he might do something reckless again.
As they ate, their conversation flowed naturally, creating a relaxed and comfortable atmosphere.
Not far away, Jonathan watched the scene unfold, his brows slightly furrowing.
He didn’t like Oscar. He wasn’t sure why, but something about the man irritated him.
And now, watching Sierra chat and laugh with him? It was even more frustrating,
What makes an average doctor good enough for Sierra? She really has terrible taste.
Jonathan was just about to walk over when someone else got to them first, interrupting the peaceful moment.
“Sierra, what a coincidence. The voice belonged to Kason, who was clearly trying to come off as sophisticated, but it didn’t suit him one bit.
Sierra was caught slightly off guard. “Mr. Kason? What are you doing here?”
“Just checking on feedback for a new medication we launched.”
Kason’s focus was entirely on Sierra. He didn’t even glance at Oscar.
“By the way, what happened the other day? Our call suddenly dropped, and when I tried to reach you, you never answered”
The moment Kason brought it up, Sierra’s expression turned slightly cold. “Something came up. A friend of mine got into trouble, and I was going to ask for your help. But in the end, it was handled, so I didn’t bother.”
Kason, however, didn’t seem surprised at all. It was clear he already knew.
Sierra’s fingers unconsciously curled slightly as she recalled Jonathan’s words.

The thought made her want to smash a glass bottle over Kason’s head.
Yet, completely unaware of her thoughts. Kason casually extended an invitation. “Are you free tomorrow?”
Sierra thought for a moment before replying. Tomorrow won’t work. How about the weekend?”
was interested to see what kind of “surprise” Kason had planned for her this time.

After finishing lunch with Oscar. Sierra contacted the psychologist he recommended. Fortunately, she was available, so Sierta decided to meet her in person
The psychologist, Abigail Hill, was Oscar’s former classmate. Oscar had already given her a brief overview, but Sierra provided a more detailed account of Dickson’s condition.
As she listened. Abigail frowned slightly. “His situation is quite complicated. Experiencing repeated trauma can leave deep psychological cars. Based on what you’ve told me, he’s already showing signs of social withdrawal and mood instability.”
Hearing this. Sterra’s worry deepened. Then I’ll bring him in tomorrow. Dr. Abigail, would that be okay?”
JAbigail thought for a moment before shaking her head. “Given his current state, I wouldn’t recommend forcing him to leave house just yet. It sounds like he feels a strong sense of security at home and trusts you. Suddenly bringing him to an unfamiliar environment might trigger resistance or distress. If you’re comfortable with it. I’d suggest doing the sessions at your place instead
Sierra hadn’t expected Abigail to offer house visits, but she quickly nodded. “That would be great. I really appreciate it, Dr. Abigail
Abigail smiled. “A patient’s health always comes first. Our job is to provide the best care while ensuring their comfort and convenience. Since Oscar referred you to me, I genuinely hope I can help.”
