Instead of answering her query, Zachary looked at her in the eyes with a deadpan look.

“You know what? They're really huge fans of yours, and they insist on having me sharing your tales with them every day.”

He remarked in a serious tone, “Just bring them here and share the tales of the almighty man with them whenever they want. It's not necessary for you to travel here and there and tire yourself out.”

“What do you mean? Are we officially patching things up?” Charlotte made of fun him because it was such a rare opportunity.
