Sherlyn was frustrated at his advice. “Why are you so scared of him? We’re in F Nation.”

He merely retorted, “You’ve led a sheltered life for far too long, and you’re out of touch with the dangers out there. You need to trust me on this; don’t cause more trouble-”

“Okay, okay, I got it,” came Sherlyn’s reluctant agreement. “Now hurry up! I’m going to check on Louis.”

After hanging up, she did not immediately visit Louis but instead turned to her subordinates. “Have all our bodyguards patrol the periphery. If anyone catches Zachary messing around, seize him immediately.”

“Yes, Lady Sherlyn.”
