Chapter 244
“Is it time for a celebration on our ship, Boss?” the ship’s doctor asked, wearing a joyful expression.
“Yes, indeed! We must celebrate in grand style. After all, I have accepted the flowers sent to me, which means I have accepted his proposal. I must give him a proper commitment,” replied Black Panther, emphasizing each word.
After all, she was not an irresponsible woman.
“Great! I’ll inform everyone right away. We’ll try our best to make sure you have a wonderful wedding night.
“By this time next year, we might have a little boss!” exclaimed the doctor, brimming with excitement.
“Go ahead, but make sure the celebration is grand. However, don’t disturb that Spineless Chicken. I think he has a weak heart, and I don’t want to scare my new husband,” Black Panther quickly got into her role.
“Don’t worry, Boss. We’ll take good care of him!” The ship’s doctor smiled so wide that his gums were visible.
“Good.” Black Panther nodded, then gestured for the doctor to go and handle the arrangements.
As soon as the ship’s doctor left, Black Panther was left alone in the room.
She gazed at the exquisite and abundant dishes before her, a rough smile involuntarily appearing on her face.
She recalled the way Spineless Chicken had looked at her was strange.
So, that was the look of affection.
Well, that boy had good taste. Within a hundred miles, there was no woman more beautiful than her!
Of course, that hundred–mile radius belonged to Black Panther alone.
Naturally, other than her, there was no other woman.
Marina had a peaceful sleep.
When she woke up, she realized that the atmosphere on the ship seemed to have become a little strange.
The crew members, who were usually serious, now wore smiles on their faces.
Moreover, they had become unusually busy. It was like they were celebrating the New Year.
Marina’s eyes filled with confusion, and she shifted her gaze to Quantum, who was standing nearby.
“You don’t have to look at me like that. I have no idea what’s happening too. They suddenly became excited, and I don’t know if they
collectively took some kind of stimulant,” Quantum replied in confusion.
“Never mind, maybe they have their own program or something. Any news from Black Panther?” Marina didn’t pay too much attention to the peculiarities either.
After all, their customs at sea were somewhat different from those on land.
A significant portion of the crew members had never really set foot on land.
Whenever the ship docked, only a few designated individuals would go ashore to gather supplies.
The rest would stay on the ship.
Because they were generations of pirates, a belief had formed among them.
If their feet touched the land, it would bring them misfortune.
So, most of these people avoided going ashore.
Gradually, many of the pirates‘ customs and habits became distinct from those of people on land.
“No.” Quantum shook his head.
Since returning from Black Panther’s room, he had been staying in the room and staying alert.
No one had come to inform them of anything yet.
“I’ll go and find Black Panther myself,” Marina said, checking the time before looking for Black Panther.
At that moment, Black Panther was in the room, trying on her wedding dress.
“Boss, have you gained weight again? This dress feels a bit tight,” the two crew members assisting Black Panther with dressing were sweating profusely.
“Gained weight? I’ve just grown taller! Can’t you see? This dress was tailored for me several years ago, and since then, some time has passed. I must have become more robust,” Black Panther justified herself convincingly.
The two crew members dared not say anything in response.
Even though they may not have had a formal education, they understood that at the age of their boss, it was impossible for her to experience further physical growth.
However, their boss was still a woman.
No woman would appreciate hearing someone say that they had gained weight.
Therefore, the two crew members could only bow and nod in response.
“You two give more effort. I feel like I can squeeze into it now,” Black Panther said. She then took a deep breath.
“Alright!” The two crew members gritted their teeth and gave it their all, finally managing to zip up the dress from behind.
“It’s on. It’s on! This dress is simply tailor–made for you, Boss!” The two crew members applauded enthusiastically.
Black Panther stood before the mirror, examining herself for a moment.
It was a rose–red gown.
The combination of that color with Black Panther’s extremely tanned skin gave an eerie, almost deathly, color scheme.
However, the crew members were enthusiastically praising the dress.
They were not flattering to Black Panther.
They genuinely thought the color of the dress was incredibly beautiful.
It showed they really lacked sensitivity and understanding to praise a girl.
At that moment, a knocking sound suddenly came from outside the door.
Marina pushed the door open and entered.

As soon as she saw the scene before her, her expression froze.
“Marina, you’re here.” Black Panther immediately greeted Marina.
But because Black Panther didn’t hold her breath and became relaxed, a tearing sound came out, and the dress split open from behind.
For a moment, the atmosphere in the room became tense.
“What’s going on? What happened?” Quantum, who was following behind, also heard the sound and immediately looked over, thinking something had happened.
“Get out!” Black Panther immediately shouted upon hearing Quantum’s voice.
