No way, you treat her better than you treat me.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Heng also took off his headscarf. “The money I’ve given you could open more than a dozen taverns like this.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But it’s not the same; I’ve been working hard out there,” Philippa retorted firmly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright, then tomorrow we’ll close down the tavern and use the money to buy you a ship.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What? Heh heh, I was just kidding,” Philippa chuckled and quickly explained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every time she finished relaying information on the radio, she asked about Millicent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She acted tough, always claiming she didn’t care, or she would crack bawdy pirate jokes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two sat and chatted in the room for a while.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The door opened, and Millicent walked in with food and drinks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When her eyes landed on Philippa, her movements paused slightly, and then she smiled with joy, “Philippa.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She put the food and drink aside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She quickly stepped forward to embrace her daughter in her arms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Philippa’s head was buried in her chest; she tilted her head to breathe and said, “Millicent, are you trying to smother me?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Millicent released her, looked her up and down, and said, “You’ve tanned; you look much better than before, more and more like a young lady.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before, Philippa was like a malnourished tomboy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, not only her complexion was better, but her body was becoming fuller, showing a tendency to develop in Millicent’s direction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was just that her skin had darkened a bit from being at sea for a long time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What are you talking about? I’ve always been a girl,” Philippa snapped back at her, then glanced at Wu Heng with her head, “He brought me to see you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Millicent immediately realized and knelt down, “Thank you, Vice-executive, for taking care of Philippa.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Get up; I’ve told you there’s no need for that, just speak normally,” Wu Heng said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Millicent slowly stood up. “Thank you, sir.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You two have a good chat; Philippa doesn’t need to leave in a hurry tonight.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the harbor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young man who had finished giving the speech hopped down from a wooden crate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He smiled and waved goodbye to the crowd around him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He boarded a carriage that, guarded by the Guard Team, started moving away into the distance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Midway through the journey…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A person dressed as a thief climbed onto the carriage and whispered, “Sir, he went to the Conch Tavern.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The tavern?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, and he also entered the tavern owner’s room, seems very familiar,” the thief said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young man continued to inquire, “The owner, a man or a woman?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“A woman?
