[Titanic] Harbor

This situation seems a bit unusual to outsiders.Other guests in the restaurant also cast their eyes on their table.

The two richest men on the Titanic gathered at this table, so it was destined that this noon would not be too monotonous.

Especially for Erica, her move is enough to draw all the hatred for her in the next ten years.

"It's just a means of camouflage. I thought you should be well versed in this."

"Of course not. That's exactly what I lack. So... I salute you!" Erica whispered back.

"It seems that Karl has some prejudices against you. In fact, I still have some doubts. I hope you can explain one or two for me." Green raised his glass, responded to Erica vaguely, and then took a sip comfortably.

"Sir? I'm assuming you're not as healthy as you appear to be. Drinking, therefore, is highly unwise."

This person is really desperate.A patient cannot drink alcohol, doesn't he know that!It was a waste of effort to save him last night!

Green is at ease throughout the Versailles-style fine dining restaurant.It seems that he is the king living in Versailles, but obviously his body does not allow him to drink like a king.

After listening to Erica's words, he stagnated for a moment, and then, all the deception and concealment, all the emotions were buried deep in his heart, and the bright and beautiful camouflage color was still the main color in the eyes of everyone.

"We always have to do things we can't help ourselves. Besides, you don't seem to be the person who would persuade others to take care of their bodies." This is like a wife who is worried about her husband's body.

But something is indeed different.He thought about it as he whispered to Erica.It's been a long time since anyone said that to him.

As the desserts came to the table, everyone cheered up.Lunch is coming to an end, and everyone naturally hopes that it will end well.

Carl suddenly spoke up and said to Green: "Sir, I heard that you have a large share of White Star Company."

"Oh! I suppose so. But I obviously don't have as much as you do, Karl. Please don't worry, our interests are common."

, Green briefly answered Carl's question.

But in Erica's view, it was a sign that he was exhausted.

This man is trying to die, and no one can help him.

"I hope so. Then..."

Before Carl finished speaking, someone walked quickly to their dining table. "Sorry to interrupt you. Sir, there is an important telegram, and I need your instructions."

The person who came was a man.His attire was a little underwhelming for those present at the dinner, more like a scholar from second class.

Green stood up apologetically, and signaled slightly to everyone: "This is my secretary—Hugh White. I may have to leave first."

"Of course, please feel free." Carl was interrupted, his face was a little unhappy, he didn't seem to have achieved his goal.But Green obviously didn't care about this, he hurriedly left the venue with Hugh.

Erica's hand resting on the table touched a piece of paper.She opened it under the cover of the tablecloth and took a look. — a note.

This mode of invitation is really boring!Uninterested, she crumpled up the paper and hid it in a small bag.

After lunch, time is running out.

Erica must prepare for the shipwreck.Because that's just a few hours away.

At the end of the show, Erica and Jack were last.Poor Ruth was hooked away by Mrs. Bucket early, and she didn't even have time to say hello to her friends.Everyone sympathized with her. Such a good girl unexpectedly met such a mother.

"Then Jack," Erica and Jack walked to the interface between the first-class and second-class cabins. She stopped, looked at Jack, and said slowly, "You like Ruth."

"Yes, I like her." There's nothing to deny.

"Then you should go and release her yourself. After all..." Erica's words behind her seemed a little vague, and before Jack could distinguish her words, she had already left without hesitation.

"Hey! Youngsters in the third class, these rich ladies are not something you can dream about, why don't you drive back quickly!" The guard on duty was already a little impatient waiting for Jack to pass by.Or maybe he was a little jealous of the fact that Jack was favored by a nobleman.In short, he interrupted Jack's thinking with a vicious voice.

"Ah! Sorry." Jack scratched his golden hair and walked quickly to his bedroom.

If he heard correctly, what Erica said to him before leaving was: time is running out.Is this a metaphor that the rich man is going to marry Ruth?Is Erica encouraging him to act and pursue the one he loves?

Hey!This English aristocratic girl has a good heart.

He quickened his pace happily.

That's right!What Ruth needs is not money, but precious freedom!And he could bring her freedom, sure.

"Sir! Both your heart and I can't stand such a stimulation, I thought you knew!"

"I'm well aware of my own problems. But... Hugh, since when have you had heart problems?"

Green tried to reassure his secretary, but now, the highly capable lad seemed like a powder keg about to explode, utterly unreceptive to his rare sense of humor.

"Ge! Lin! Mister! Sir!" He was obviously angry.

"Okay, okay." Green waved his hands again and again, and had to compromise: "I'm very tired now. If possible, can we explain the so-called important telegram."

"There is no important telegram at all. I just subjectively think that you need to rest. You can think that this is my negligence, but if I don't, I may have to ask a doctor to give you emergency treatment!"

"The matter is far from serious!" Green tried to appease the secretary who had already exploded, "However, it would be great if you could get me two pills!"

"Oh, God!" Hugh exclaimed.He just turned around to sort out some documents, and when he turned around, he saw his boss palpitations and difficulty breathing.

This is not the first time he has encountered such a situation, but the number of times he has encountered this situation is by no means too many.

He calmed himself down a little, the boss's attack this time was not particularly serious.

So, he first helped Green to sit on the edge of the bed, and then asked him to breathe deeply.

The medicines that the boss brought on board this time are all new medicines. Although they have passed clinical verification, compared with the old medicines, this kind of medicine takes effect faster and does some damage to the body.

Dr. Wells had warned him not to take the drug if he could.

This is already a first aid medicine.

The reason why a large dose was prescribed to Green was also in consideration of his wishes.Green can't have any problems on board, and it is inevitable to use heavy medicine when necessary.

"Take a deep breath, sir...Take a deep breath." Xio felt that it was more difficult for him to breathe than Green.He already had the medicine in his hand, and as soon as Green had any worse symptoms, he could stuff it into his mouth immediately.

It seems like a long time.In the warm and comfortable room, only Green was breathing hard.

After Green's breathing gradually stabilized, Xio put down the medicine bottle.His palms were wet and he was covered in cold sweat.

Sometimes, too high a temperature in a room is not a good thing.

Hugh stood up and poured Green a glass of warm water.

His boss took a few sips and let out a long sigh of relief.

"It feels great to be back in the world." Green loosened his bow tie and let himself lie freely on the bed.

Xio gently closed the door for him.

His boss is not an easy guy to get along with.He may joke with you, but only if you can handle that well.If one day, Green feels that you are paying too much attention to his life, he will fire you immediately.

Another of Green's habits.Whenever he came back from an illness, he would need some alone time.No one knows what he does in the room alone, but if you disturb him, he will be very angry and the consequences will be extremely serious.

There was an unbelieving girl who bothered Mr. Green during that time.As a result, there is no result.

Xio didn't know what happened afterwards. Even this story was told to him by the previous secretary when he was handing over the shift.

He has always been very taboo about it.

On the other side, Carl took Ruth's hand and led her all the way to his room.

"Boom!"He closed the door.

"Ruth, you have been paying attention to other men all afternoon, is it such a painful thing to have lunch with me! If I didn't love you, how could I pay so much foreign debt for you.·· ·Only I love you, and only I can give you what you need, that man, his name is Jack, right, what can he do? He will always be a poor painter!"

Carl stood so close to Ruth that he almost growled at Ruth.

finally come.By this time, Ruth did not feel so sad.Her mother wanted her to marry Karl, because she hoped that the huge foreign debts of the family could be paid, and that she could still lead a superior life.

Didn't we already know this?How many gorgeous statements and how much persuasion for your own good can only temporarily cover up this bloody fact.And now, the truth was finally spoken by Karl himself.

It would be a good choice if Karl just decided to dissolve the engagement between the two of them.No matter how high the price she paid for this was, she was willing to accept it.

Ruth had a vague premonition that she could get out of the cage. She seemed to see the light of freedom, just like the sky she saw when she looked up on the deck of this ship. Drunk, one piece...

"Ruth, marry me!"

Carl's next sentence brought Ruth back to the stagnant reality.All the freedom she had thought, or the freedom to come, was an illusion.Karl had not spared her, nor had he spared himself.

Ruth felt herself trembling all over, and she could hardly speak a word.He could only watch Carl's hand resting on her shoulder, and with his other hand he took out a box from his pocket.

When it is opened, it is dazzling blue.

— Heart of the Ocean!
