Stefan seemed serious. "On the surface, I'm just an escort, but I'm actually a therapist too. I can provide

professional therapy, and I am skilled in hypnosis as well. Your best friend mentioned that you have a lot of

unhappiness suppressed, so I hope you can open up to me. If you trust me, I can help you come out of that

darkness."

"A professional therapist?" Renee was quite surprised. She really thought the man's bread and butter was his looks.

"What's with that look?" Stefan smiled lightly, brushing her hair to the back with his long fingers. "Do you not believe

me? Or do you feel disappointed... Well, I can still actually pay special attention to your body too, if you want me

to."

"No thanks!" Renee's face turned red, and she pushed the man away forcefully as she sat up straight. Her tone was

frosty as she said, "Of course I don't believe you! You've been flirting with me the whole night! How could you be a

professional therapist?!"

Not only did professional therapists need to possess a lot of knowledge, they'd need to have a strong, natural sense

of empathy as well. Hence, she just refused to believe that a pretty escort like him could ever be in the field.

"If you don't believe me, we could always try a little experiment."

"What experiment?"

"Have you ever heard of the HTP test?"

"Kind of... It's basically just drawing a house, a tree, and a person on a blank piece of paper, right?"

"Correct." Stefan nodded. "After you're done, I'll analyze it for you. If my analysis is correct, you'll believe me then,

right?"

This piqued Renee's interest, and she agreed right away. "Fine then. We'll see if you're a fraud or not once this is

over!"

Stefan then found a paper and a box of color pencils, handing it to Renee with a glint of excitement in his eyes. "You

may start now."

Renee took the materials and sat down in front of the coffee table, drawing with an intensely focused expression.

She might be a prodigy in almost every field, but drawing was the only thing she could never master for some

reason.

"First a house, then a tree... I'm going to add some fruit onto the tree, and now the people..."

Stefan was sitting next to her at the time, and watching her draw like a child made him want to laugh. He was just

so used to her spiteful attitude, which contradicted her current sweetness. It completely melted his heart.

He couldn't even resist the sudden wave of affection that bloomed in his chest, and he reached out to pat her head

gently.

"What are you doing?!" Renee was immediately alarmed, glaring at him with a frown.

Stefan retrieved his arm calmly. "Nothing. There was just a mosquito on your head."

"What? Why would a mosquito bite my scalp? You're being so suspicious!"

Although Renee didn't trust him, she didn’t question any further either.

Instead she pointed to her drawing and said, "I'm done, so go ahead. Let's see what you've got."

The man picked up the piece of paper and scanned it thoroughly. His lips were pursed, and a solemn expression

appeared underneath his masquerade mask
