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!
