Chapter 183: Finally Cured the Disease
Peter Brown had agreed, and Maggie Parker’s face burst into a broader smile. She suddenly radiated warmth and cheerfulness, and she said to Peter, "Mr. Brown, I, Maggie Parker, won’t forget your kindness. As long as you rescue my mother and send her back to Hua Nation, I’ll do whatever you ask!"
Peter chuckled, "Anything I ask of you?"
Maggie hesitated for a moment, then gritted her teeth and said, "Yes, anything!"
Then Peter laughed and said, "Alright, I don’t speak Arabic, you can teach me."
"Just this?" Maggie was stunned. She hadn’t expected that Peter would just want to learn Arabic, and she looked at him incredulously.
"What did you think I was going to ask ?"
Maggie blushed, realizing she had got it all wrong - Peter wasn’t the man she thought he was.
Now that Peter had rejected her advances, this left her feeling disappointed, even slightly angry. Here she was, a beautiful woman, and he requested her to teach!
Maggie put on a forced smile and said, "Of course. I’ll get the materials and start teaching right away."
As she turned to leave, a pleased smile curled up at the corners of her mouth. She found Peter quite impressive, precisely the kind of reliable man her mother had told her to find. From now on, she decided, she would stick with him!
Watching Maggie’s hips sway as she walked away, Peter felt a tinge of regret. He could tell she would have welcomed his advances. She was a woman of mixed heritage and astonishing beauty!
