Fenton’s Quest

CHAPTER XXXIII
14/17

"You needn't ask me that question again; there is no other way; you can get me out of my difficulties if you choose.

I should never have been so venturesome as I was, if I hadn't made sure my daughter would soon be a rich woman.

You can save me if you like, or you can hold-off and let me go to prison.

There's no good preaching about it or arguing about it; you've got the choice and you must make it.

Most young women in your place would think themselves uncommon lucky to have such a chance as you've got, instead of making a trouble about it, let alone being able to get their father out of a scrape.
