No words for a night, bright morning light.

　　 The sun slowly rises above the sea level, illuminating the blue sea and silver sand of the Caribbean, and the hot and humid sea breeze blows the thick branches and leaves of the palm trees, rushing, quacking...

　　 Lorraine found that the counter girl named Orphee said really well that the Pelicans like the balcony of 401.

　　 Since the first ray of light fell, dozens of birds lingered outside Lorraine’s bedroom. I don’t know if it was the board meeting or was busy talking about love. In short... it was noisy.

　　 The pelican's call is worse than the chorus of Jenny and McCarthy, fragmented, short, hoarse, and with a peculiar rhythm that strikes the soul.

　　 They dragged Lorraine from the soft bed strong and bravely, washed and changed clothes while yawning, and started a good life early.

At 5 o'clock in the morning, Lorraine rang the counter bell refreshingly. The jingle bell ringing continued for thirteen times, until Miss Ofie, in her pajamas, floated out from behind the counter like a sleepwalker, raising her eyelids and sweeping Lorraine. At a glance.

　　 "Mr. Captain got up really early..."

　　 "I like pelicans. When I hear them singing, my stomach will get hungry with excitement."

　　 "Aren't gentlemen only drink morning tea at 9 o'clock?"

　　 "That's right, so don't have tea for breakfast today. Please prepare a sparkling cappuccino for me and bring it to my study with breakfast."

　　 "Can't it be later?"

　　 "We paid, Miss McCarthy. Don't forget, the customer is God."

　　 God ate a pure and hearty English breakfast in his study half an hour later. Although the cooking was a bit sloppy, the unique Jamaican coffee still made Lorraine’s cheeks fragrant and refreshed.

He put down the coffee cup with satisfaction, wiped his mouth, and said to Miss Orphee who was grieving beside him: "Miss McCarthy, I am going to work now. I need morning tea at 9 o'clock. I hope you know about Ceylon and Asa. Don’t humiliate your hotel’s great reputation."

　　 "Yes, Mr. Captain." Miss Offie put away the plate with a sad face, "Can I go to bed and get some sleep? Mr. Captain."

　　 Lorraine glanced at the clock: "I'm afraid it won't work. Pierce is used to getting up at seven, Henna will be a little later, about half past seven. You are now preparing breakfast for them at the right time."

　　Miss Ofie's eyes widened in horror: "Are you all evil heretics!"

　　 "Except for some details...you guessed it."

　　 drove away poor Miss Offie, Lorraine opened the window of the study, sat at the desk and began to perfect the Caribbean chart.

Improving the nautical chart is a meticulous and boring task. The main process is to compare the captured pirate charts, calculate the latitude and longitude of those hidden ports, and then calculate it again according to the proportions of the nautical atlas, adding ports, routes, and islands along the road. , Reefs and other risks cannot tolerate the slightest sloppy.

　　 Lorraine quickly became immersed in it, and three hours passed without knowing it.

　　 At 8:55 in the morning, Miss Offie, who was completely awake, knocked on Lorraine's door with morning tea.

　　 "Mr. Captain, there is a Mr. Parker downstairs who said he has an appointment with you, do I need to bring him up?"

　　 "Mr. Parker?" Lorraine confirmed the time in surprise, and couldn't help but smile. "Unexpectedly, the time for the transmission is counted. Is this a disagreement..."

　　……

　　 The tea in the reception room was pleasantly fragrant. Lorraine and Chuck Parker sat opposite each other and did not speak, but quietly adjusted the morning tea in their hands.

　　When the sugar and milk reached the standard, Lorraine put down the teaspoon and looked at Miss Offie standing beside him strangely: "Miss McCarthy, when are you going to hear?"

　　 "Huh?" Miss Offie trembles, "Then what, the guest sponsors in the hotel, I am the housekeeper..."

　　 "But you are not the real housekeeper." Lorraine pointed to the door, "Thank you to bring it here. Besides, call Carmen over and say I need her to participate in this interview."

　　 Ofi hides his face and walks away.

　　 The door of the study was closed, and Chuck pushed the morning tea with too much milk sugar in disgust, crossed his fingers and asked: "I don't know Carmen..."

　　 "Carmen Xavier, my social adviser, the general manager of the General Chamber of Commerce and Land Business."

　　 Chuck nodded clearly.

　　 Lorraine chuckled and took a sip of tea: "Mr. Parker cared more about this interview than I thought."

　　 "Why do you see it?"

　　 "Intuition." Lorraine toasted, "Lieutenant Colonel Nelson told me that you are Sir Parker's nephew. You have a good reputation in the military?"

　　 "It's just bureaucratic transactional work, nothing to brag about."

　　 "I also went to sea school, and I understand the complexity of the transactional work in your mouth. So, I don't understand."

　　 Chuck's eyes flashed: "Don't understand why I am obsessed with doing business?"

　　 "No, no, no. I just don't understand why you want to stay close and farther. Even if the Parker's family does not have its own chamber of commerce, it is not difficult to rebuild one, is it?"

　　 Chuck fell silent.

　　 The two sides were silent for a few minutes, and Carmen in costume opened the door, and Ping Tingting came to Lorraine: "Captain, I heard that our branch has begun preparations?"

　　 "There is a suitable candidate for the vice chairman, Mr. Cortruns will come by at 10 o'clock."

　　 "10 o'clock?" Carmen gave Chuck a surprised look. "Then this gentleman?"

　　 "Chuck Parker, nephew of Sir Peter Parker, Admiral of the New World Fleet, a top student of London Business School."

　　 "It turned out to be the captain's friend, so lucky to meet..."

　　 Until this moment, Lorraine's pressure on Chuck was completely released through Carmen's approval.

　　 Chuck began to feel uneasy, reached out his hand to hold the tea cup, thought for a while, and put it back on his knees: "Mr. Drake."

"I am listening."

　　 "Uncle Peter told me that you have been a restless person since childhood. Lieutenant Colonel Nelson said that you met the Chamber of Commerce in Europe, and then threw it to a partner to come to the New World alone to expand business. Is this true?"

"From the description, it seems to be good." Lorraine tilted his head and thought for a while, "but I did not abandon the mature Northwest Branch, but clarified the mode of getting along with my partners through contracts and systems. After that, we will properly arrange everyone to their suitable position, such as me and my partner."

　　 "Do you think you are suitable for pioneering, and your partner is more suitable for presiding over the daily affairs of the Chamber of Commerce?"

"Much more than daily, Ramos has all rights in the Northwest Branch except for the decision-making power of the directors. I trust him, and the system of the General Chamber of Commerce also allows me to trust him~lightnovelpub.net~Chuck's eyes are shining. : "Mr. Drake, can you understand a young man who is rebellious and unwilling to be restrained by his family? "

　　 Lorraine couldn't help but glance at Carmen.

　　 He can't laugh or cry in Carmen's eyes, and believes that Carmen's look will not be too different.

　　 He pondered for a long time and said softly: "Mr. Parker, you are 26 years old this year, I take the liberty to ask, are you married?"

"I don't want to accept the marriage arranged by the family! That lady from Welsh wears a tall wig without a trace of sincerity on her face!" Chuck danced, "Sir, I have my own lover, Miss Alves shines into me like an angel Life, we will finally enter the palace of marriage!"

　　 "Final?"

　　 "Hmm...Her father was a member of the Continental Congress. Before the end of the war, we all thought..."

　　 Lorraine finally understood Chuck’s brain circuit. The Anglo-American war forced him to separate from his lover. He was worried that the war would be far away, and even more worried that even if the war ended, his family would not allow him to come together with his rebellious daughter.

　　 That's why he is eager to get rid of the shackles of the family, to get rid of completely, and no longer have the slightest reliance.

　　 There is only one question left. Sir Parker wants to put him into the Drake Chamber of Commerce. What is he thinking about...

　　 Lorraine pursed his lips and did not speak. Carmen thought for a while, then interrupted in: "Mr. Parker, I wonder if you and Sir Parker..."

　　 "Uncle Peter is my godfather and my introducer to Miss Alves." Chuck thought for a while and added, "This is after the war began."

　　 Lorraine laughed happily.

　　 This war between Britain and the United States is really more interesting than it seems on the surface...
