章 1517: Welcome at the White Rock Lake (8)

Zack excused himself and went to greet Masika.

She was surprised and happy to see him, "I didn't know you are coming."

"I found out just before coming here...", Zack responded and joined them for the card game.

Merve was at the table as well and she recognized Zack as the one who came with Masika to rescue her and Hande.

"Is Hande here?", Zack asked.

Merve confirmed and pointed toward the dock. Ade and Hande are still sitting there and chatting.

When Zack left to join Masika, Noah looked at Sarah expectantly.

"Relax, Noah. Everyone here is family.", Sarah said. "Think of this as a night off."

Noah told himself to be cool. He should not show how giddy he is to be next to his Mistress, and Aiden is not around. He glanced around and voiced his observation. "Many new faces."

Sarah understood that Noah is not familiar with the new girls or with Master Hollow and his disciples.
