Karina walked to the carriage, and Marlon opened the door for her, but the businesswoman stopped and did not get up.

Karina looked across the street at the café, where Malcolm was eating lunch with a napkin on, and when she saw the businesswoman looking over, she made a gesture of please.

The latter hesitated for a moment, and finally walked over, Marlon also wanted to follow, but was stopped by two muscular men outside the store, he was a little anxious, but Karina nodded at him, signaling that it was okay for him.

"Want something?" Malcolm cut off a piece of fried egg with a dinner knife and said to the businesswoman sitting in front of him, "I recommend the coffee and tuna sandwich here, it still tastes good." ”

"Just like you."

"Those who know me well know that I don't like people turning down my proposals," Malcolm said to the waiter next to him, "plus a cup of coffee and an omelette and a tuna sandwich." ”

Karina smiled, not dwelling on this trivial matter, and looked around, "I've been in Nassau for so long, but I haven't really been around the city, and I don't even know there's a café here. ”

"I don't blame you, this café is usually closed, it only opens when I'm here, and sitting here makes me feel like I'm back in civilized society."

"If you're ten years younger, maybe you can't help but fall in love with you."

"I've known your father Fagan for a long time, but I never knew he had such a good daughter." Malcolm ate the omelette and took another sip of coffee, "I thought you were a liar out of nowhere when you first appeared in front of me, but now I believe that you are your father's daughter, and you both share the same traits, and you will never give up as long as you set a goal." ”

"Maybe it's because life doesn't even give us the right to give up." Karina thanked the waiter who served the coffee.

"Are you still mad at me about what happened when you first came to the island?"

"Should I be angry?"

"Even if you sit in my place, you don't just do what you want." Malcolm put down the fork in his hand and wiped his hands with a napkin, "Or more precisely, it is precisely because sitting in the current position that you don't do whatever you want, people only see that the Black Business Alliance is now powerful, but they don't know that it was not easy at the beginning of its establishment, we have to deal with threats from all sides, not only outside the alliance but also inside the alliance, there are too many exchanges and compromises." ”

"I'm sorry, but does this have anything to do with me?" The businesswoman asked rhetorically, "I have already gotten what you don't want to give me, and now I don't need anyone's mercy anymore, I don't care how much effort you put into establishing this alliance, and I don't care how important it is in your heart, if you just plan to play the emotional card with me today, then it's better to save it, I'm not as leisurely as you, and there are still many things to do, so I'll miss it first." ”

Karina got up.

"Don't you even care about your own father?" Malcolm said lightly.

The businesswoman's body froze in place, a flash of hatred flashed in her eyes, but thinking of what Laeri was doing now, she finally forcibly restrained her emotions and turned around, trying to make her voice sound the same as usual, "My father? ”

"I regret what happened to your father, one of my cousins happens to have something to do with Count Slaughter, who held your father captive, maybe I can help you intercede with him and settle this matter sooner." Malcolm looked Karina in the eye and said, "You probably want your father to get him out of prison too, right?" ”

"At what cost?"

"Leave Nassau, the last batch of spices on the Jackdaw should have made you some money, with your ability and your father's ability, with this money as start-up capital, even if you do some other business, you should be able to maintain the family."

Karina opened her mouth to say something, but Malcolm held out a finger, "This is not a deal, but I will give you one last chance in your father's face to let this matter be resolved peacefully, you yourself should know very well that those little tricks you are playing now will not last long, and my patience is limited." ”

"What if I refuse?" Karina was silent for a moment before saying.

Malcolm raised his eyebrows, a little surprised, "Maybe I really underestimated you, I always thought that you came to the island just to make money to save your father, but you have made this matter your own business now, haven't you, unfortunately, you didn't come at the right time, I changed my mind now and don't want to drag it out with you any longer, so the game and the old time are over, if you don't leave, then maybe something cruel will happen next." ”

…………

A quarter of an hour later, Karina came out of the café, and Marlon immediately greeted her, "Well, he didn't embarrass you, did he?" ”

The businesswoman shook her head, "It's still the same old thing, Malcolm thinks I'm still a little girl, thinking that I can be scared away by intimidation alone, don't worry about him, calculate the time Jackdaw is about to come back, we have to do our thing before this, there is still some stock in the warehouse, I'm afraid I will have to trouble Uncle Marlon for you to run again." ”

The captain of the Breeze nodded, "I've already procured supplies, and I'll be able to get those things on board after dark." ”

"Very well, you go and prepare for going to sea, and then I'm going to go to Smoked Fish Alley, let's separate here." Karina got into the carriage.

"Why don't we go together? The rest of the matter didn't take an afternoon, Smoked Fish Lane was one of the most chaotic places on the island, full of thieves and villains, and a young girl shouldn't be alone. Malone frowned.

"It's okay, I have friends there." Karina had already closed the car door, left with a "stay safe, Uncle Malone" and left.

"I guess it's appropriate for me to say that." Ma Long looked at the back of the carriage and said helplessly.

Half an hour the carriage stopped at the mouth of the alley, Karina jumped out of the carriage, a few thugs squatting on the ground whistled at her, although the businesswoman seemed very relaxed when she replied to Marlon, but at this time she couldn't help but feel a little drumming in her heart, but she had survived the pressure that Malcolm had given her before, and there was no reason to be scared by a few little hooligans here.

So the businesswoman took a deep breath and walked into the alley, but not far away, she bumped into a group of imps head-on, and spilled the cuttlefish juice on her body, Karina was a little helpless, took out her handkerchief and wiped it for a long time without wiping it off, and at this time, she found that the gangsters she had met at the entrance of the alley were following her.
