:41:01
My lady, if l wanted a son,
do you really think
:41:04
l'd have no other choice
but to adopt one?
:41:06
Well, with no ties in this country,
you're free to travel. Aren't you?
:41:11
But l have no such intention.
:41:13
You will change your mind
after speaking to Jamie.
:41:15
We're going abroad!
:41:17
And you're coming with us.
As Jamie's partner.
:41:22
You're not averse to being
my partner, are you, Fox?
:41:26
Her ladyship was just hinting
at the advantages
:41:29
that such an arrangement
might hold for me.
:41:32
Was she?
:41:35
l have three ships
outfitting at Rotterdam.
:41:39
They're being armed
to conduct operations of war
:41:42
against the merchant fleets
of certain hostile nations.
:41:45
Piracy.
:41:47
That shouldn't bother
a man like you, Fox.
:41:50
A man with brains,
:41:52
courage and capital.
:41:55
Capital?
:41:56
Equal shares.
And a fortune to be made.
:41:58
Equal shares.
:42:00
lf you accept, we'll take you
with us to Rotterdam.
:42:03
You mean that her ladyship
would be coming with us?
:42:07
You don't think that
l'd start a newventure
:42:09
without lady Ashwood's
moral support, do you?
:42:13
Well, Fox?
:42:15
Now, why do you hesitate?
:42:17
All partnerships
have two things in common:
:42:20
the partner who cheats
and the partner who is cheated.
:42:23
My dear Fox, you knowthat l trust
you completely in every respect.
:42:27
And surely you don't think
that l would cheat you?
:42:32
Milord, a message by hand
for Mr. Fox.
:42:36
Excuse me.
:42:47
My lady...
:42:48
- Going, Fox?
- l'm afraid l must.
:42:50
At this hour? You make it sound
a matter of life and death.
:42:54
ls it, my lady.
