Chapter 168 The Pearl of Hefang Island
Margaret, 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 moment, there was a hint of fatigue on her beautiful face.
It took two months to go out to sea, so she was so tired. She didn't want to do anything now, she just wanted to go home as soon as possible and take a good bath and rest.
The scenery outside the car changed rapidly. When Margaret saw the steel gate of the Governor's Mansion flash past, he knew that he had arrived home.
"Child, how about it? Did everything go smoothly on the island patrol?" Carita smiled and greeted her.
"It's okay, I'm just a little tired when I take a boat. Mom, I want to take a shower."
"Okay, the water will be ready long ago, and I'll wait for you to come back."
Margaret, with her hair tied up, was lying in the white ceramic bathtub. She closed her eyes and felt the water slowly passing by her body, and her tired brain gradually relaxed.
"Daughter, when you were not here, Martin sent a lot of telegrams. I'll keep them in your room. You can check it out if you have time."
Margaret's beautiful embroidered eyebrows frowned slightly. "My mother, please let me take a break. Will you talk about these things tomorrow?"
"Daughter, don't choose anymore. I can see that Martin is the best suited to you among so many suitors. He is the eldest son of the Governor of Mochen Island. He is also good-looking, and I can see that he really likes you."
"Yeah..." Margaret was absent-mindedly perfunctorily.
Carita shook her head helplessly, turned around 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, and Margaret was the only one left in the spacious bathroom.
In the thin water vapor, she opened her eyes and looked at the crystal light on the ceiling with a complicated expression.
Three years ago, when she heard that Mr. Charles became the governor of an island, she was so excited that she couldn't sleep all night, which meant that the two of them would never be blocked by their father again.
But just as she was fantasizing about living together, there was a bad news coming, Hope Island Governor was dead.
He fell directly on the water from a very high place, and then disappeared into the sea.
Although his crew was still offering a reward for his captain with huge bounties, everyone in the sea knew that as long as the person who fell into the bottom of the sea would never come back, the ocean would pick them up and give them to the gods.
At that time, she cried for a long time and felt depressed for a long time, but as time passed, she still walked out.
She is already 20 years old this year. If it is normal, marrying a man she doesn't hate seems to be a good choice now.
But whenever she wants to make up her mind, she always feels strange.
"Mr. Charles, how can I forget you?" Margaret murmured to himself.
This man did save her at the beginning, but the difference between the two was not long, and the other party was not very happy to take care of her, so why can't I forget it?
Before she knew it, she fell asleep and in her dream she thought of a lot.
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 maid who had been waiting for him came over and said.
"Thank you, Gina, maybe I'm really a little too tired." Margaret said, stretching and sitting up.
"Good morning, sir, Father." Margaret, who walked into the dining table, said to Daniel with a big belly with a smile.
Daniel, with a gloomy face, ignored his daughter's greetings, holding a fork in one hand and a document in the other, and his hands were also trembling.
"Touch!" Daniel smashed hard at the table, "Swan is too much!! I'm not dead yet! Do you really think that the North Sea is his?"
After saying that, he stood up angrily and walked out.
"Brother, what's wrong with my father?"
Jack, who had two beards on his mouth, did not answer, shrugged at her and continued to deal with the bacon on the plate.
Seeing that he didn't answer, Margaret stopped asking, and she sat in her seat and started to have breakfast.
Bacon, fried eggs, and beans. Although the food is still the same, Margaret has no left at all and is eaten clean.
Touching her belly, Margaret didn't know what to do for a moment. According to the plan, she returned to Hefang Island. She originally planned to have a few days of rest.
But now she hasn't thought 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 for fun."
Soon, Margaret, who had changed into a long dress, sat in the car and drove out slowly from the Governor's Mansion.
"Miss, where are we going?" asked the strong driver with his head turned.
"I don't know, if you just open it, just take it as a relaxing moment."
The Hefang Island is very big, and even if you take a bus, you have to walk around for a long time. Margaret kept looking outside the car. She felt that she hadn't come for a few months and the island was different again.
Before I knew it, the morning passed.
"Stop, stop quickly!" Hearing the urgency in Margaret's language, the driver stepped on the brakes.
The girl pushed open the door and ran out, and came to a stall selling marshmallows, "Boss, I want a pink one, thank you."
"Buzz buzz~" the bellows blew, and soon a pink marshmallow was delivered to Margaret.
She licked and walked forward, as long as it was eating, she was always interested.
The marshmallows quickly became smaller, and the messy port area covered by the marshmallows appeared in front of Margaret.
Putting the last bit of marshmallow into her mouth, she pointed her hand at the port area, "Let's go there and have a look."
The maid who came with her was a little embarrassed. "Miss, is there some danger there? Otherwise, let it go."
"It doesn't matter, my brother's people are following." Margaret pointed to the driver who had already gotten out of the car and pulled the maid towards the port area.
Margaret's appearance, coupled with the exquisite white long skirt on her body, was as eye-catching as if she was walking on the street with such a high-intensity searchlight.
Looking at the various gazes coming from all around, Margaret quickly turned to the store selling old clothes, and people outside unknowingly surrounded the door of the store.
The strong driver did not go in and was waiting for something next to him. Soon a beggar leaned over with a bowl.
"Let those trash know something, if the lady loses a hair, they will all die."
"I understand." The beggar left quickly.
