Chapter 274: A Change of Pace

Before departing to the plantation, Richard called Lisa through the radio and asked if she could come.

"I'm sorry brother…maybe next time. The task you just gave to me is quite demanding. I'm currently coordinating with the local officials and community leaders to manage their concerns about our recent activities."

"I understand, Lisa. Keep up the good work," Richard replied, acknowledging the importance of her task. 

After the brief call, Richard turned to Sara, who was waiting for him. "Let's head to the plantation."

"Your little sister could have come if you hadn't given her a task," Sara giggled.

"Well, if Mark's report came first, I wouldn't have given her a task like that," Richard replied with a half-smile, acknowledging the timing of events.

They made their way towards the VH-60N, a helicopter designated for their transport to the plantation.
