[Titanic] True Love Is Eternal

The NO.13 Titanic sailed faithfully along the Atlantic route. Although it seemed that Karl had convulsed to a level that I couldn't understand, I still felt that I could trust him when he said that he would slow down the ship.No matter how unscrupulous this guy is, he doesn't need to cheat me on this matter. After all, we are still on the ship. If the ship does not slow down, his lies will be exposed by watching the daily bulletin board or entering the port on time.

After breakfast, I ran to the deck of the upper class with a sluggish face, wandering around, praying in my heart that Karl still had some sense.If he dares to break off the engagement now, what awaits him when he disembarks is a basket full of rotten tomatoes and rotten eggs... This is just a relatively low-level metaphor. To be correct, he does not need to attend the Titanic dinner before disembarking.

Not long after he introduced his fiancée to the dignitaries on board, he immediately hooked up with an unidentified woman and directly regretted the marriage.Even a "high-class person" will take a detour to him, no amount of money will help.Look at the richest man on the boat, because he kicked off his filthy wife and married a teenage little sister as his wife, and he has to travel around the world with his little wife in desperation to escape the condemnation of the social circle.

Unless his brain is broken, he would make such a decision to cheat himself and his father. Ruth hasn't run away with Jack yet, and he has no reason to do such a mindless thing.

Unless this guy wants to push Ruth into the sea and drown, then pretend to be heartbroken for a few months, and then give up on himself and marry an unidentified woman... He is a businessman, not a murderer. Apart from that, I realized that I was too idle, and my hair was almost gray when I got off the boat and ran away.

The sun on the deck is very good, I don't wear a hat, and my standing posture is very unstable, which is completely different from those ladies sitting on chairs here.Even the waiter who poured tea to the guests on a silver tray hesitated to pass me by, letting me walk back and forth with a face full of strangers.

A familiar figure hurried past me. He was wearing a three-piece suit and a tweed hat, holding a pen in his left hand and a notebook open in his right hand.

I hurriedly followed, facing the bright sunlight, and called him, "Mr. Andrew."

Andrew immediately stopped his hurried steps and turned his head in doubt. Before I could say anything, a strange emotion appeared in his eyes, and he looked at me carefully, as if he had just met me. "Oh, Emily, are you okay?"

"Of course." I don't have any missing arms or legs, so I don't understand where Andrew's strange eyes on third-class disabled people come from.

"That's good, don't think too much about everything, you are excellent, so treat yourself well." Andrew clipped the pen into the notebook, and melancholy crept up his brows, feeling that facing me gave him a lot of pressure, regretful The expression is so obvious.

I have always been kind to myself. "Thank you." Standing next to the lifeboat, I couldn't help but reach out and touch the hull, and asked seriously, "Have you decided to slow down the boat tomorrow?"

"Slow down?" Andrew hesitated for a moment. He didn't know what his mental activities were. He looked very eager and wanted to leave here immediately.Then I saw that the melancholy between his brows remained the same, and even his words were not as confident and smooth as usual, "This boat will be fine, Emily."

As long as it slows down, it will hardly notice the iceberg 37 seconds before it hits the iceberg. What else can happen to the Titanic without hitting the iceberg.

"Don't you guys decide to slow down?" I can only think of this kind of result to explain where Andrew's melancholy mood comes from.

"No... Well, I mean, if it makes you feel better, it can also slow down. If you think it slows down, it won't sink... Sigh." He sighed helplessly as he spoke, with pity in his eyes The feeling became more and more obvious, "Emily, don't think about it, nothing will happen to the Titanic."

I have never seen Andrew speak so hesitantly and uncertainly, I had to confirm again, "You guys will slow down the boat."

Andrew grabbed the record book tightly, and his black leather gloves made a mark on it. He looked at me hesitantly, looking a little cautious, and finally frowned and said: "Yes, it will slow down, so don't get too excited, take a good rest .”

do i look really badWhy does he look like I am in the terminal stage of illness and will go to heaven at any time.

"Have you received an iceberg warning?" This year's warm winter, there will be many icebergs from the west coast of the Greenland Ice Sheet floating in the Atlantic Ocean. I don't want them to ignore this important information.

"When I received the first congratulatory letter yesterday, I received a warning of an iceberg on the route, so Captain Smith has decided to adjust the route to the south. We are on the southern route." Andrew patiently answered my question, "Someone will be watching Channel iceberg, don't worry, it's fine."

It sounded no problem, I finally relaxed and said with a smile: "But for safety's sake, I would like to trouble you to contact the nearby ships. Even if the ship is fine, I hope that the ships on the route can maintain a mutual aid distance It's good for each other's safety."

"Generally we don't interfere with the sailing routes of other ships, but, well, I'll send a telegram." Andrew didn't hesitate this time, but he didn't show his habitual smile either. Forgot to say to me: "Take good care of yourself. If there is anything you can't figure out, or if you need someone to talk to, you can come to me. Don't think so much."

Do I look like the kind of fragile woman who could faint at any moment?Or I played too crazy last night, so now my face is ugly. "Yes, Mr. Andrew, thank you."

Andrew nodded, then turned and left.

I walked to the railing and looked as far as the eye could see, the dark green ocean was endless.Putting his hands on the railing, he couldn't help showing a pleasant smile, and muttered, "See the Statue of Liberty in New York." Below the railing is the lower deck of the bow, where the crew and passengers come and go, seabirds Fly through the sky.A hesitant voice came from behind me, "Miss, do you need tea?"

Looking back at the uniformed waiter looking at me with a tea tray, I asked, "Where are you from?"

"Huh? Southampton, miss." He said sheepishly. "That's where I was born."

"Really? Then you can go home soon." I took the teacup he handed over and said politely to him, "Thank you."

"You're welcome." The waiter replied blushing.

Coming back from a walk on the deck of the lifeboat, I went to the first-class suite as usual, and when I opened the door, I saw no one in the living room.Not to mention Karl and the old poodle, not even the servants and servants are waiting.I felt that the atmosphere in the room was a bit depressing. After I closed the door, I could see my sun-baked face through the fireplace mirror.There was a layer of blush on the fair skin, which looked very warm.

Suddenly another woman appeared in the mirror, a very old woman, the one who poured me tea in and scolded Karl for being immoral, Ruth's mother, Ruth.It’s the name, right? The memory of the plot of the Titanic is basically allotted to the male and female protagonists. I can’t remember the other minor characters one by one.

The clothes Rufu wears are very characteristic of the Victorian period. The dress wraps her neck tightly. She wears a black feather hat. The long white gloves form a solemn echo with the dark hat. .

It's conservative by any measure.And this conservative aunt's eyes are very cold, like a poisonous snake, you can feel the chilling oppression just by looking in the mirror.

"This...Miss Emily." When she called me by my name, it was not like Andrew's spring breeze, it was like the end of winter in London just past, and the frost was biting my bones.

If others don't give me a good face, my face will naturally not get better. I showed a fake smile, and turned to face her generously. "Is there something wrong, ma'am?"

"May I know who your parents are? I think you have a 'status', maybe I've heard of your last name, you're British?" Ruth walked slowly from the sofa with a heavy step Come here, without any smile on his face, like a sharp knife, wishing to chop me into pieces. "Oh, no, your accent is not orthodox at all. It sounds like you are American. The daughter of some American tycoon?"

"The tycoon can't be called a tycoon. To be correct, they are not around me." I don't care about her black face. If I see a "little three" suddenly appearing next to my future son-in-law, my face will only be worse than hers.For me, as long as the Titanic doesn't sink, then nothing is a big event. At least you don't have to see more than 500 people die in front of you. Is there anything more gratifying than this?

"You're an orphan," she confirmed in a sudden, high-pitched voice.

"It is." I kindly gave her the answer she wanted. I had better not have any "status". If I were really the daughter of a British nobleman or an American tycoon, then she would be troubled.

"Then how are you qualified to stand here? The clothes on your body are even Ruth's. And judging by your behavior, you don't have a trace of everyone's demeanor. You are just an inferior woman." Rufu couldn't help but took a few steps back, wanting to leave I'm farther away, the class she is in is doomed to look down on any inferior person. "You have nothing, like a devil that popped up out of nowhere. You don't even have clothes, let alone jewelry or wealth. Are you familiar with this thing when you go out alone and hook up with the upper-class young men?"

The disgust in her eyes was so obvious that I couldn't help but see if there was something dirty on my body that made her cover her nose and spit.Except that Ruth's clothes didn't fit well, I didn't think there was anything wrong with that.At most, he didn't wear a necklace around his neck, didn't wear gloves on his hands, and didn't get a bird hat to hang in his hair.

Sure enough, there is no ladylike demeanor, and I have to lament that Ruth's mother's eyes are vicious.

"Do you think you have won? If you continue like this, you will get nothing. If Karl dares to dissolve the engagement, then his father will not let him go. Only by getting married and marrying a woman with a good background can he inherit smoothly. The family business. You'll ruin him, and you won't get a dime in the end." Rufu said viciously, even at this moment she maintained her deep-rooted etiquette habits, standing upright and lowering her voice.

"He wants to regret the marriage?" Did that idiot really run to break the engagement?God, hadn't anyone told him that wasn't how the engagement was broken?I didn't see that this aunt almost came out with a knife to kill people. How did he tell others, I don't want your daughter anymore, so hurry up and take that troublemaker back to harm others.

It's really possible to say that, he has a low EQ.

"Karl was just confused for a while, I understand him, he hates inferior people, you are like mice in his eyes." Rufu sneered at me arrogantly, "I know the mentality of a woman like you, you just want money, I can give it to you."

"What?" Why is this plot getting more and more wrong, the train basically derailed and flew into the sky to soar.

"I can give you a sum of money to make you worry-free for the rest of your life, of course, if you don't squander it. Only this time, don't come back and threaten me again." Mother Ruth looked at me with the terrifying eyes of a scourge. , as if I am the kind of big villain who kills people without blinking an eye, and treats blackmail as a simple job like drinking water and eating. "Then you have to leave, get out of here, I know you are a smart man. It is impossible for him to marry you, no one will allow him to marry you, you should know that it is impossible for you."

Haven't proposed yet?On the issue of whether to marry or not.I really want this aunt to wake up, you threatened the wrong person, please threaten your future son-in-law who has no emotional intelligence, can you, I have no right to speak.And this kind of plot is almost not even broadcast on TV soap operas. This kind of bloody drama that uses money to make other women go away is really not suitable for broadcasting here.

"If you don't go..." The aunt misunderstood the messy silence on my face. Her eyes were red and she said angrily, "I will ruin your reputation. Neither you nor Karl can escape this condemnation. I will Spread the news about you, and let people know that you are just an orphan with no father and no mother, and that you even stole. I will not let you have a good time. "

She meant it and was desperate to get revenge on anyone.The Hockley family is her last bargaining chip to stay in the upper class, so she will do everything possible to keep this streamer, and I am obviously blocking her way, and even the chief culprit who kicked her into the abyss of despair, she has reason kill me.

I'm such a badass.Reluctantly tilting his neck and sighing, he twisted his facial muscles in an attempt to get himself into the state.In less than half a second, my eyes changed, ruthless and charming, like a vixen, this is probably what Ruth's mother wanted to see most.

I showed an unscrupulous smile and looked at the old woman in front of me mockingly.Step by step, arms crossed chest, skirt twisted and twisted with my water snake-like steps. This is the dance movement when performing Liuying on stage. I basically applied this exaggerated movement to reality without changing it. Come here.

"What are you trying to do?" Rufe backed away startled by my change, as if worried that I might do her a terrible injury.

"I said, auntie, you'd better not do this, I'm not easy to mess with, you don't want to know where I used to be." I picked up the cigarette case on the table here, this is Carl's cigarette case, I don't know why he doesn't put it in his pocket and put it on the table.Opening the cigarette case smoothly, I took out a cigarette and clamped it on the finger of my left hand. The ring on the ring finger was shiny, like a nouveau riche.

Then I held a cigarette in one hand, put the other hand under my chest, stood with my legs apart, maintained a smile that was not a woman from a good family, and laughed hehehe.I laughed until the aunt was terrified, and when the atmosphere was almost ready, I swayed up, "I don't care about fame or not, even if you spread everything, you still won't get anything." thing."

"What do you want to do?" Rufu I was shocked, she may have never seen such a shameless woman in her life, her face opened her eyes.

"It won't do you any good to spread about Carl and me. You're right. He can't possibly marry me. I'm just a bad woman who came to get his money. You don't have to worry about the marriage contract. I'll leave as soon as I get off the boat." , If you tear yourself apart with us now, then you won’t have any room for change.” I really thought hard, if I let Rufu break things up now, it won’t do any good to that idiot Carl.The malice of the upper class is one thing, and it is a crime that his father breaks his legs with a civilized stick when he disembarks, and his family will be disturbed.

I don't want to trap him so badly, no matter what, he hasn't done any heinous things yet, and... he is very gentle.Although his brain doesn't seem to be working well.

"You'll leave as soon as you get off the boat?" Rufu was taken aback by my words, and she repeated in disbelief, "You'll leave him."

You will leave him.This sentence made me lose my mind for a moment. In order to cover up this unnatural pause, I put the cigarette in my mouth and said impatiently: "Nonsense, there will be no good results for the two of us, I will leave as soon as I get off the boat, aren't you Do you want to send me money? The more the better, how much."

"It's just too vulgar." Rufu was almost fainted by me, and she was holding her chest with difficulty breathing.

The corset is so tight that you don't see how good your waist is. Such a little stimulation will make you faint. I really want to give the middle finger to this world without underwear.

"You are such a bad person. Karl will definitely see your true colors. Talking to you is an insult to me. I hate you." Rufu raised his head solemnly, gave me a contemptuous look, then turned and walked out .

I asked leisurely behind her, "Auntie, you don't want to spread bad news everywhere, do you?"

Rufu froze, and then she said indifferently: "Karl was just deceived by you, he will regret it."

I know the answer, that is to say, she will not leak this kind of messy things, even if there are rumors but no evidence, he will not be hurt.Silently took the cigarette out of my mouth, I couldn't help poohing it, I really couldn't stand the smell of tobacco.In order to make the scene end better, I continued to shake my hips and followed to the door, beckoning to the aunt, "Come and play when you are free, remember to give me the money."

For Karl, I really worked hard and performed my stage experience to the fullest. If there is an audience, they will definitely applaud me.

Rufu immediately quickened his pace, as if fleeing.

When I saw her disappear, I suppressed the smile on my face, and finally sent her away, hoping that she would stop talking about it. After all, her identity is different, and what she said is false, people will take it as the truth.Breathing a sigh of relief, I stood up straight and wanted to turn back to the room, but with a flash from the corner of my eye, I realized someone was standing on the left side of the door.

Tilting my head unpreparedly, I saw Carl standing by the door, leaning against the wall, looking at me expressionlessly.

I,……

I suddenly want to ask, how much have you heard?Or, it's just a misunderstanding, let me explain!

It's too bloody, it's unbearable to see.

To be honest, the clothes he was wearing matched the white corridor quite well, a light-colored three-piece suit, a buttonhole pocket watch fastened to the buttons, silk ties and leather shoes were all very expensive.On the other hand, I had a cigarette in my hand, and the airy temperament I had entered the show just now hadn't faded away, and the two of them looked very different.

Carl's eyes were gloomy, and an uncommon sullen expression appeared on his face, even the direction of the twitching of the muscles on his face was different.He approached me step by step, I was frightened by his expression and backed away, I couldn't help throwing the cigarette aside, trying to destroy the evidence.

"I was outside just now, and I wanted to come in." He laughed at himself, and said in a strange tone, "Are you leaving the boat?"

I tried to think what would happen to him if I said yes.

"And you're just looking at my money." Carl's self-deprecating smile couldn't be twisted anymore, he bit his lip, and the emotion revealed in his eyes was very sad.

This is a misunderstanding... Well, let him misunderstand, it is best for him to see my "true face" now.So I don't care, "You say so."

Carl's distorted expression became even more distorted. He probably didn't expect me to answer like this. His anger made him take a few quick breaths. I took a few steps back, worried that he would pounce on me and strangle me to death.And then he actually pounced, his eyes so fierce, it reminded me of a preying hawk.Before I could run away, he had grabbed my arm and dragged me towards the room.He was so strong that I could only stagger and run after him.

"Wait, Karl." I wanted to shake off his hand, not knowing what he was going to do.

As a result, he dragged me to the safe, transferred the password directly in front of me without even covering it, opened the safe, reached out and took out several stacks of dollar bills, and stuffed the money into my arms with a grim face.

I was startled by his action, all the money in my hand fell to the ground, and the neatly arranged banknotes hit my feet, all scattered.Carl was still not satisfied, and continued to stuff a jewelry box to me, followed by a check and the remaining coins.I suddenly felt that he was really rich, and the banknotes that fell could be spread under my feet to my ankles.

"I'm rich," he growled at me angrily, clutching a handful of bills.

I know you are rich, and this is the first time I feel that the money looks so scary. The jewelry box in my hand fell to the ground, and the star of the ocean rolled out of it miserably and was buried in the banknotes.

"Don't just get off the boat, because then you won't get a dime, as long as you stay, you will have as much money as you want." He continued to give me money, and went to take out the safe.

I... can you react more normally?

Then I saw him reach out and pull out a torn dress, off-white, covered with dried dirt.Carl was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help touching the skirt. I thought the skirt looked familiar, as if I'd seen it somewhere.After touching the skirt, he realized what he was doing, and a little unnaturalness flashed in his eyes, and he quickly tucked the skirt back.

The hobby of stuffing skirts in safes is really hard to understand for rich people.

The excitement on Carl's face finally cooled down, but he seemed to have an inexplicable sense of grievance. He stood silently beside the safe, with one hand on the door, looking at the money in his box.I looked at the dollar bill in my hand and considered whether to slip it back to him.

He also had a special interest in carrying such a suitcase full of banknotes around all day.

"You lied to her." Carl sneered suddenly, "She threatened to tell us about us, so you lied to her that you were leaving. When you lie, your movements are different from usual, your body movements Exaggerated, like a bad stage actor. Isn't it?"

He looked at me eagerly, wishing I would nod immediately.

Looking at his longing eyes, and then at the banknotes all over the floor, I suddenly found that I couldn't even shake my head.

"Very good." Seeing my hesitation, Carl pulled me into his arms and put his head on my shoulder, "We will be together forever."

I just kept holding the banknote in one hand and the check in the other hand, and was hugged tightly by him.A broken harmonica fell from the safe and fell on the coins. I suddenly felt that this harmonica looked familiar, very familiar.
