“Thank you, Dr. Sanders.” Leah turned her head slowly to look outside the window. The
sun was shining on her white and lustrous face, there was an inexplicable sadness. Ian
considered it for a while and asked, “Ms. Murray, if I may ask, where is your family? Are
your parents alive?” Leah did not know what he was asking about and answered him
truthfully, “My family is from Linkville, and my mother died when she gave birth to me.”
“Then what about your father?” “My dad died of cancer three years ago.” Seeing Leah’s
lonely expression, Ian immediately apologized. “I’m sorry, Ms. Murray.” Leah did not feel
offended and shook her head. “It’s nothing. Dr. Sanders, why are you asking me this?” Ian

Leah was stunned and looked at him subconsciously. He was the first doctor to see that
she was normal. Even if that was true, it was no use. Han could shape the truth however
he liked. Leah fell silent upon thinking of it. “Dr. Sanders, I’m tired and I want to have a
rest.” Ian saw the exhaustion in her eyes and felt that it was difficult to ask about her
plastic surgery. Then, he stood up. “Alright, I won’t bother you anymore.” After Ian
returned to the office, he was in a daze. He fiddled with the pen in his hand. Then, the
landline on his desk rang. “Mom?” It was Ian’s mother on the other side of the phone.
“Ian, you said you didn’t want to be the Sanders family’s young master but you want to be
a psychiatrist. Your father keeps talking to me about this every day. Come home soon. The
eldest daughter of the White family will be returning from studying overseas. We’ll discuss
your marriage with her as soon as the both of you come back.” Thinking of the White
family’s eldest daughter, Ian massaged his temple as he had a headache. “Mom, I like my
current job and the patients need me here. Plus, this isn’t the time for arranged marriage
anymore.” Ian’s mother sighed. “You kept saying that you were going to marry her when
you were a child. But now when you’re all grown up, you don’t like her anymore.” Ian
suddenly thought of something, and his expression became solemn. “Mom, Miss White
had an accident when she was 12 years old, right?” The mother’s voice grew suspicious.
“Yes, why are you asking me about this? Just know that after that accident, Mr. White had

become more careful toward Miss White’s well-being. If you reject Miss White, Mr. White is
going to despise our family.” Ian frowned, then pondered for a moment. He then said
lightly, ” I’ll go back tomorrow.” It seemed that if he wanted to unravel the mystery, he
had to go to the White family to see for himself. Dr. Sanders left the psychiatric hospital
the next day. He said that he had a family emergency and went back. It was a female
doctor who was taking care of Leah in his absence. The female doctor listened to other
nurses’ rumors about Leah and treated her poorly. She was rude every time she changed
Leah’s medication. She did not care if Leah felt pain. For the first time, Leah was looking
forward to Dr. Sanders’s return. But three days later, it was Shyanne who came instead of
Dr. Sanders.
