Annie crossed her arms and pouted. “Fine. Save your sass for later, and get into your work mode

quickly. Otherwise, Corinne isn’t going to believe you’re a professional if she sees you like this.”

David smiled and turned to look at Corinne, who was still sitting in the living room. He had his fair share

of seeing things and people of different kinds, but a flicker of shock crossed his eyes when he saw her.

He walked over and extended his hand politely. “Hello, Miss Corinne. I heard quite a lot about you from

Annie,” he greeted.

Corinne put down ‘Bryan’, got up slowly, and shook David’s hand lightly.” Hello.”

She had not even held David’s hand for one second before she pulled it away. Through this

handshake, David could tell what kind of personality she had.

“Please take a seat, and let’s have a talk,” said David.

Corinne did not see herself as his guest but as his client. Thus, she acted as such.

“What would you like to drink?” asked David in a gentlemanly manner after they had all taken a seat.

“Warm water would be fine, thanks,” replied Corinne.

David nodded and turned to ’Bryan’, asking him gently, “And what would you like to drink, buddy? We

have everything here.”

‘Bryan’ said nothing. He did not like the man in the white coat because of the way he looked at Corinne.

“He’ll have a glass of soda,” said Corinne on behalf of Bryan’.

“Sure,” said David with a smile. He then asked his housekeeper to serve the drinks before saying to

Corinne curiously, Most mothers don’t like their kids drinking soda, and yet you seem like you don’t

mind.”

“I don’t mind if it’s once in a while. He’s a little nervous right now, and drinking soda always calms him

down,” replied Corinne.

David nodded understandingly.

Annie crossed her arms with annoyance. “Hey, Doctor David. I happen to be your old client, so why

didn’t you ask me if I wanted anything to drink?”

David turned to Annie. “It’s exactly because you’re my old client that I didn’t ask you what you would

like to drink. After all, you can take whatever you like to drink from the fridge. Isn’t that what you always

do when you come here?”

Annie laughed. “Aren’t you afraid of losing me as a client?”

David smiled. “Oh, come on. Let’s cut the chase. Didn’t you say you brought a friend for counseling? Is

it Miss Corinne?”

Annie nodded. “Yeah.”

David immediately got into work mode.

“Miss Corinne, what seems to be troubling you?” he asked seriously.

Corinne patted ‘Bryan’ on the shoulder. “It’s not me. It’s my son.”
