Gu Yang's tone was slightly mocking. "Establishing a private torture chamber and acting as if you're above the law? Family Head Tong, you may be impressive, but you don't have the final say in this matter."
"Also, Madam Tong, don't forget that I'm your psychiatrist," Gu Yang said calmly, her gaze sharp and penetrating. "The long-lost relationship you speak of—was it truly lost or merely abandoned?"
