“Go ahead.”

Zachariah took Ophelia to meet two more important elders, and then he took her upstairs with the worries that she would be tired.

“Zachariah, let’s go and see Savannah and Mom.” Said Ophelia.

“No, it has taken you so long to socialize with me, so you now go back to room and have a rest. Mom will handle the things about Savannah.”

Ophelia followed him toward the bedroom, but looked at him suspiciously and said, “Zachariah, is there something you have kept from me? Savannah was not having a tour to Korea with her friends, right?”
