I'm not sure H letting L go talk to Sarah alone was about trust so much as it was about H allowing L to learn for himself the dangers of the relationship. I think H learned with Tom and Christine that getting all pissy and quoting the rules was the wrong way to handle the situation and he won't do that again. H knows Sarah is disastrous for L (and not just for operational reasons) but he also knows that L has to discover that on his own.

Can't say that I agree with this.There's no way Harry would allow Lucas to endager an operation purely to learn a lesson about the dangers of love. Also, his annoyance when the comms started to go seemed very real. I think he wanted to believe Lucas when he said that he could handle it, and expected him to play by the rules.
