StartNovelChapter 821
Mia quickened her pace and ran to Sarah's side, shooting a glare at the grinning Leon before clutching Sarah's
arm and whining sweetly, "Sarah, do you really think I'm such a troublemaker?"
Sarah gently tapped her nose with an amused smile. "Don't twist my words—I never said that."
Mia glanced back again at Leon, who was still staring fixedly at Sarah, then hurriedly tugged on Sarah's hand to
pick up the pace. "Sarah, let's walk faster. I'm starving."
Sarah seemed to understand exactly what was going through the girl's mind. Not only did she not resist, she
played along perfectly. "Then we'd better hurry."
Leon watched their clumsy performance with amusement rather than anger, matching their pace step for step-
sometimes faster, sometimes slower-like a persistent shadow.
Mia couldn't stand how clingy he was being. She whirled around in frustration. "Hey! Can you either walk faster
or slower? Stop following right behind us like that!"
Leon flashed a grin. "Little girl, does this road belong to you or something?"
Sarah knew Mia was no match for Leon and worried he might provoke her into losing her temper. She quickly
pulled Mia aside and changed the subject. "I almost forgot to ask-what do you want for lunch?"
The distraction worked, and Mia's anger subsided.
They finally made it to the school gates without incident.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhen Sarah noticed numerous female students pointing and whispering with flushed faces, she had a pretty
good idea what she'd find.
Without realizing it, her mood had already shifted.
Seeing the tall, strikingly handsman leaning casually against a tree by the gate waiting for them, the
tension she'd been carrying immediately melted away.
Mia waved excitedly and shouted, "Zachary!"
Zachary raised his head slightly, his features cool and refined like a perfectly composed ink painting.
The moment he looked up, Sarah could actually hear the collective sharp intake of breath from the female
students nearby.
In this looks-obsessed era, beauty really was a devastating weapon.
When Zachary's eyes found Sarah, the ice in his expression began to thaw, and
he suddenly radiated a more human warmth—like a deity who'd just descended to earth.
His sharp instincts immediately picked up on Leon trailing behind them-clearly not a student. Though his
expression didn't change his gaze turned razor sharp cuttings through the air like a blade s
He strode over, his imposing frplacing himself protectively between Sarah and Mia and the threat behind
them.
Hidden from Sarah's view, Zachary finally stopped suppressing his hostile aura
and said coldly, "What are you doing here?"
Leon smiled faintly, giving no ground. "Mr. Reynolds, what a coincidence. Are you here to see Miss Sanders for
treatment too?"
Watching Zachary's brow furrow
deeper, Leon cheerfully added fuel to
the fire. "Though | suppose there's a first-come, first served policy
medical appointments. Miss

Sanders is my personal physician now, so you'll have to get in line, Mr. Reynolds."

Zachary's eyes held no emotion whatsoever-like he was looking at an inanimate object. Without turning around,
he said, "Mia, take Sarah to the car and wait for
——
It was Sarah who answered. "Alright, but hurry up. Mia and | are both hungry."
Zachary's expression softened slightly as he nodded obediently.
After they left, his face darkened at a visible speed, and he threatened in an ominous tone, "Leon, I'd advise you
to stay away from Sarah. Otherwise, | can't guarantee what | might do."
Leon wasn't intimidated in the slightest if anything, he seemed eager to provoke. "That's quite a joke, Mr.
Reynolds. Miss Sanders is treating my condition How Could | possibly stay away from her?"

Zachary said nothing more, only gave him one final warning look before turning
and walking toward his car.
