Penson apparently wanted to invite Sean Knight to the island to search for treasure again.
Sean shook his head and said:
"Mr. Penson, I think you know, that place is too dangerous!
We went there last time, and although I was fine, it was terrifying - two living people disappeared, and one was killed! Right in front of us! It's too dangerous!
Although we treasure hunters also face danger, I've never seen someone killed in front of me with a gun before! I'm really scared..."
Penson didn't expect Sean to refuse before he even finished talking.
He waited for Sean to finish, and then patiently tried to persuade him:
"Mr. Knight, I think you need not be so nervous about this point.
You probably don't know, but after my father's death, my family has been arguing over the distribution of his inheritance. And me, as someone in the family who never cared about property, I was given that island."
