Chapter 55. Gen Tim and Gen Rex
I heard their names in the past from my father, but I haven't met them. I remember my brother meeting them once at a family gathering. I was then away pursuing my college education in the city. How do they know me, Ari?
I will ask them today, Sav. I didn't know that your name had been exposed already. Few people knew about our marriage unless one or two of our guests spread it out. I made an announcement then that your name should not be attached to mine for your protection. We discussed that, remember? I am so looking forward to leaving this country so we can go out freely. I don't mean to hide you, but this is the only way to protect you. You understand me, don't you?
Yes, I do. Savannah said.
