With his head lowered, Zachary didn’t reply. Instead, he had a grim expression on his face.

“Where exactly do you feel the discomfort? Do you have a headache?” Ben was unsettled when he noticed Zachary’s expression. “We should have gotten Dr. Felch to give you a check-up.”

Zachary remained silent.
