When Karina opened her eyes again, the carriage had stopped outside Hyman Estate.
A businesswoman is a person who can afford to let go. Although she lost some time after knowing about Zhang Heng and Annie, she quickly regained her strength and devoted her energy to the business on the island. The busyness of this time has diluted the regret in her heart.
It's just that the two of them are in a small space together now, which evokes her previous memories, but her spirit has recovered a lot after sleeping.
Karina stepped off the carriage and moved her shoulders. Unlike Terence's Manor in Malcolm, Carmen's Hyman's estate covers a small area, probably only one-tenth of the former, and does not grow any crops, except Most of the place outside the residence was the garden and lawn. This place was left by Carmen's dead husband, Smith, who died of an accidental horse fall after one year of marriage. The estate now belongs to Carmen.
"Is there anything wrong with the two?" A black man was mowing the lawn, and when he saw it, he lowered the scissors in his hand and came over.
"I heard that the host here is proficient in the Guana Hatabese medicine, so he came here for medical treatment." Zhang Heng also got out of the carriage.
"Yes, Mrs. Smith is indeed very talented in this area, and her Guana Hatabei medicine has even surpassed the Guana Hata people on the island." The black man smiled. We need to prepare the herbs and treatments for you, as well as meditate the night before. "
"Really, but we are here already, at least let me try the effect first."
"This ..." The black man seemed very distressed. "But you don't come at the right time. In another half an hour, an appointment guest will come, so ..."
He was interrupted by a female voice before he finished saying, "It's okay, Drew, let them in."
"As you wish." The black man turned away and gestured please.
Zhang Heng and Karina followed him through a small flower garden and entered the main entrance.
The black man turned to go to the kitchen to make tea, and after another five minutes, the master of the voice walked downstairs. She stood in front of the second-floor window before. Zhang Heng just glanced around, and now finally got a chance. Close contact with the Lord.
According to the information collected by Zhang Heng, Carmen should be about the same age as Eugene and more than 40 years old, but it is difficult to see from the outside.
I don't know what method of skin care she used to make her look like she was only about 30 years old. The whole person exudes a unique charm of maturity and innocence. Zhang Heng can understand why Eugene is fascinated by her. .
"Drew, do you know who you just shut out?"
"I'm sorry, ma'am." The black man owed.
"Who is the most famous person on the island these days?"
"Mr. Malcolm, who formed the Black Merchants Alliance, and Sam the Black Prince who became the king of Nassau pirates, I often hear people talking about their names ... but to say that the most famous recently is Jack of the Jackdaw. Captain Heng. "The black man said here, and apparently realized who the person was sitting in front of him. After all, the characteristics of Zhang Heng's Orientals were still obvious, and there was a touch of surprise in his eyes.
"You can't drive the island's most prestigious captain, Nassau's new king, out of your house at any time. Drew, push out the appointments later and tell Mr. Buffon to change the time of treatment tonight."
The black man nodded, turned around and brought the tea, then walked out of the room.
"Hope my people didn't offend you." Carmen held out his hand.
Zhang Heng has always disliked European kisses. This is a custom of the Vikings. It later spread to Europe and became popular in high society. It is mostly used to show respect to married women. It is still popular among European royal families in modern times However, it cannot hide the fact that it is not hygienic, especially considering the current background of the times, people living in Nassau may not be able to take a bath once a week, and there are definitely a lot of bacteria on their hands.
Therefore, Zhang Heng just extended his hand and politely shook hands with the other party.
There was a embarrassment on Carmen's face, but he soon covered up and smiled at the businesswoman. "Let me guess, since Captain Zhang Heng is here, then you must be Annie, no, Miss Annie has enviable red hair. You are Miss Karina. Although what you do is not as famous as Captain Zhang Heng, it is now a household name, especially among the women on the island. Many people are discussing you. And Miss Anne, you have proven that women can still have a place in this man-dominated world. "
"You think of me too high, I'm just a businessman who wants to make money." Karina said.
The three of them settled down again, and Carmen said, "I didn't expect Captain Zhang Heng to know me, can I help you?"
"One thing really needs Mrs. Smith's help."
"That's my honor. I don't know where Captain Zhang Heng is uncomfortable?" Carmen took the tea cup in front of him and took a sip of tea ceremony.
"I heard that Madam you and Mr. Eugene are familiar."
"Sorry?"
"We are not malicious to Mr. Eugene. In fact, we also know that he has been in a somewhat helpless situation these years. We want to help him solve his troubles, but only if you can help us first and tell us to threaten him What exactly is it ~ www.novelhall.com ~ I don't know what you're talking about, I'm just a doctor, using Nahartabe's medicine ... "
"We know what relationship you have with Eugene." Karina interrupted Carmen. "Eugene comes to you for treatment every night, and leaves the next morning. His wife is not on the island. And you have been widowhood for so many years ... "
"IMHO, Miss Karina, you don't know anything about widowhood." Carmen's tone also changed, not as polite as before, "If you are here for this matter, I'm sorry , Our conversation can only end here, Drew, the guest is leaving. "
The black man heard the news and walked in from outside the house, but neither Zhang Heng nor Karina got up. "I heard that after your husband passed away, you and your husband's family are a little unhappy. They want to take him back on the island. We may be able to help with the industry, especially this estate. "
Carmen heard his eyes jumped, but in the end he said, "I don't know what you are talking about, and I can't help you, whether you believe it or not, Mr. Eugene is just one of my patients. If you come to see a doctor, I welcome it, but I can't do anything else. "
