When Sienna got home, it was exactly eight o'clock.
She punched in her code, and the door clicked unlocked.
The living room lights were blazing, casting a bright, white glow across the entire apartment. Before she could even take off her shoes, she froze, hearing the voice of an unfamiliar woman inside.
The voice wasn't particularly young, but it was steady and incredibly gentle.
She paused, turning her head to peer past the shoe cabinet.
Sitting on the living room sofa directly across from Jorrod was a middle-aged woman.
She looked to be around fifty, wearing rimless glasses and her hair tied back in a neat, low ponytail. Dressed in a dark gray cashmere cardigan, she radiated an aura of pristine professionalism.
"You're back?" Jorrod noticed her first.
He stood up from the sofa, walked over, and naturally took the bag from her hands, hanging it up for her with the perfect demeanor of a devoted partner.
"This is Professor Jacqueline Shaw, a senior specialist in neurology. She's here to do a preliminary assessment of my condition..." Jorrod began his introduction, but the woman on the couch braced her hands on her knees, stood up, and raised a hand to interrupt him as she walked over to them.
Sienna remembered instantly.
Just that morning, Silas had mentioned that Dr. Shaw was one of the top three neurologists in the entire country.
Getting an appointment with her was supposedly harder than climbing up to heaven.
For her to show up exactly here in their living room meant this had to be the result of Silas pulling some serious strings.
But it had only been a day. How did he manage to get her here so fast?
Sienna greeted the woman politely.
