His Unveiled Passion novel Chapter 304

Tessa nodded and said, "Please come in."

She waited for Lester to enter her office before asking, "Are you here to discuss the Helio case with me? I was about to look for you, actually. The case is a challenging one, so I wanted to get your opinion on it."

Helio was a biotechnology company, and the president was Samuel's late friend. Tessa had only opened her law firm for business recently, but Helio had already entrusted several cases to her. Amongst the cases was one that was rather complicated. There wasn't enough evidence, so they would be taking a huge risk if they escalated the case to court.

However, Lester shook his head. "I'm not here for the Helio case."

She lifted her gaze and looked at him in confusion. "Why are you here, then?"

"You've been looking troubled lately."

Tessa was stunned for a moment before she asked, "You can tell?"

"Yeah," he answered with a smile. "You're always distracted recently. You're practically carrying a sign over your head that says 'I'm troubled'."

"Is it really that obvious?" she asked while pressing her lips together.

"It's that obvious," he replied.

"Fine." Tessa lowered her eyes before she said in a melancholic voice, "Something happened at home recently."

Lester's eyes darkened. His tone was dripping with concern when he asked, "Can I ask what happened?"

Tessa pondered his question for a moment before she decided to share. "Something happened to my younger sister. Her mental state is unstable, so I'm really worried about her."

"I know the best psychiatrist in the country," Lester said. "Perhaps I can give you a hand."

Tessa shook her head. "There's no need for now. We already have a live-in psychiatrist who's taking care of her. We'll see if her treatment shows any results, and I'll contact you if it doesn't work out. Thank you, Mr. Cooper."

Lester's gaze was gentle when he said, "There's no need to thank me."
