Chapter 169 The Pearl of Hefang Island
Margaret, who was sitting in the car, looked at the scenery outside the car. Three years later, the childishness on her face had completely disappeared, and her appearance was even better than before.
But at this time, there was a trace of fatigue on her beautiful face.
Going to sea for two months is really tiring, she doesn't want to do anything now, she just wants to go home as soon as possible, take a good bath and rest.
The scenery outside the car was changing rapidly, and when she saw the steel gate of the Governor's Mansion flash past, Margaret knew she had arrived home.
"Son, how's it going? Is everything on the island tour going well?" Karita greeted her with a smile.
"It's okay, it's just that I'm a little tired from the boat ride, my lord, I want to take a bath."
"Okay, okay, the water has been put away a long time ago, waiting for you to come back."
Margaret with her hair curled up was lying in the white ceramic bathtub. She closed her eyes and felt the water flowing slowly across her body, gradually relaxing her tired brain.
"Daughter, when you were not here, Martin sent many telegrams, and I put them in your room, so you can read them when you have time."
Margaret's pretty embroidered eyebrows frowned slightly. "Mother, please let me rest and talk about these things tomorrow, okay?"
"Daughter, you don't need to pick any more. I can see that among so many suitors, Martin is the most suitable for you. He is the eldest son of the governor of Mochen Island. He looks good, and I can see that he really likes you." your."
"Hmm..." Margaret perfunctory absent-mindedly.
Karita shook her head helplessly, turned and walked towards the door. "Although it is not necessary, if you marry him, it will be of great help to your father's current difficult situation."
With a "click", the door closed, leaving Margaret alone in the spacious bathroom.
In the thin mist, she opened her eyes and looked at the crystal lamp on the ceiling with a complicated expression.
Three years ago, when she heard that Mr. Charles had become the governor of an island, she was so excited that she couldn't sleep all night. This meant that the two of them were together and would no longer be hindered by their father.
But when she fantasized about the two living together, a bad news came, the governor of Hope Island died.
After falling directly on the water from a very high place, he disappeared directly into the sea.
Although his crew is still offering a huge bounty to his captain, everyone in Earthsea knows that as long as people who fall into the bottom of the sea never return, the ocean will pick them up and give them to the gods.
At that time, she cried for a long time and was depressed for a long time, but as time passed, she still came out.
She is 20 years old this year, and according to normal circumstances, it seems a good choice to marry a man who doesn't hate her now.
But whenever she was about to make up her mind, she always felt weird in her heart.
"Mr. Charles, how can I forget you?" Margaret murmured to herself.
It was true that this man saved her back then, but the difference between the two is not long, and the other party is not very willing to take care of her, so why can't he forget it.
Unknowingly, she fell asleep, and she thought a lot in her dream.
When Margaret woke up again, she found that she was already lying on the soft bed.
"Miss, you fell asleep in the bathtub yesterday." The head maid who had already been waiting came over and said.
"Thank you, Gina, maybe I'm really tired." Margaret said, stretched and sat up.
"Father, good morning." Margaret, who walked into the dining table, smiled and said to the big belly Daniel.
Daniel, with a sullen face, ignored his daughter's greeting, holding a fork in one hand and a document in the other, both hands were also trembling.
"Touch!" Daniel slammed the table hard, "Swan is too much!! I'm not dead yet! Is it true that the North Sea belongs to him??"
After speaking, he stood up angrily and walked outside.
"Brother, what's wrong with father?"
Jack, who had two mustaches on his mouth, also didn't answer, shrugged at her and continued to deal with the bacon on the plate.
Seeing that he didn't answer, Margaret didn't ask anymore, she sat in her seat and ate breakfast.
Bacon, fried eggs, and beans. Although the food is still the same, there is nothing left for Margarita, and she eats cleanly.
Touching her stomach, Margaret didn't know what to do for a while. According to the plan, she returned to Hefang Island. She originally planned to take a good rest for a few days.
But now she didn't think about how to rest.
After thinking for a while, she stood up and said to the head maid beside her, "Gina, let's go out and play."
Soon, Margaret, who had changed into a long dress, sat in the car and slowly drove out from the Governor's Mansion.
"Miss, where are we going?" The muscular driver asked sideways.
"I don't know either. If you drive casually, just take it easy."
Hefang Island is very big, and it takes a long time to go around even by car. Margaret kept looking out of the car. She felt that the island was different after she hadn't been here for several months.
Before I knew it, the whole morning passed by like this.
"Stop, stop quickly!" Hearing the urgency in Margaret's language, the driver stepped on the brakes.
The girl opened the door and ran out, and came to a small stand selling cotton candy, "Boss, I want a pink one, thank you."
"Buzzing~" The bellows whistled, and soon a pink cotton candy was delivered to Margaret.
She walked forward while licking, as long as it was food, she was always interested.
The marshmallow quickly became smaller, and the messy port area covered by the marshmallow appeared in front of Margaret.
Putting the last bit of marshmallow into her mouth, she pointed to the port area with her hand, "Let's go there and have a look."
The maid who came with her looked a little embarrassed. "Miss, there is some danger there, right? Or forget it."
"It's okay, my brother's people are following." Margaret pointed to the driver who had gotten off, and pulled the maid to the port area.
With Margaret's appearance and her exquisite white dress, she is as eye-catching as a high-intensity searchlight walking on the street.
Seeing all kinds of gazes from all around, Margaret quickly turned to a store selling second-hand clothes, and people outside surrounded the store door unknowingly.
The brawny driver didn't go in, he was waiting for something, and soon a beggar approached with a bowl.
"Let those rubbish get to know each other. If the lady loses a single hair, they will all die."
"Understood." The beggar left quickly.
Margaret, who quickly changed her old clothes, came out from the back of the clothing store. She looked at the maid in the same dress and laughed loudly.
Thanks for the reward of 10,000 from Cape Wind, thank you for your support.
