[Titanic] Harbor

Erica was put up for the night in an economy suite at a hotel.The next morning, Wayne's secretary sent Erica a suit of clothes.Professional small suits, white shirts and skirts are not fashionable, but the fabrics are good, not good-looking, but they definitely fit.

Miss Wayne's secretary also thoughtfully prepared a black top hat for Erica, with black gauze on the edge of the hat, to a certain extent, Hassan blocked the view of the outside world, which is better than nothing.

Together with these, there are also the documents that Mr. Wen En sorted out overnight. He hopes that Erica can read them all, so as not to be fooled by the other party's lawyer.

Lawyer Wayne was busy all night last night. As soon as it dawned, he rushed to the house that Green had just bought, preparing for the final negotiation with his client.

Mr. Wayne is also a dedicated and responsible person, as is her secretary.

Erica was sitting in the restaurant of the hotel, and the secretary accompanied her to read the documents, explaining the details to her by the way.

And at Green's house.

"That's it. After the court, I have to check the company's accounts again." Green quickly let go of himself, and also let Wayne go.

Tom's mansion.

"After today, that British guy can no longer be arrogant in front of us." A businessman said to Tom, and they also finished breakfast in their mansion.Ready to attend court.

The hotel where the Hockley cousins ​​lived.

"Cousin, yesterday's matter has not been resolved, so what does Mr. Green have to do with us?"

"You just have to do it." Carl's expression was cold.He had never been able to find a chance to chat with Erica alone.Before Elizabeth went to the tea party, he asked Elizabeth to ask him about Ruth's whereabouts.But his cousin also forgot about it because she was too busy arguing with each other.

The woman named Erica and Ruth had been on good terms while they were on the boat.They later boarded a rescue boat and were assigned to a room to rest.But after getting off the boat, Erica, like Ruth, disappeared from the world.

He followed Jack's line and found no trace of the other party.At this point, his worst assumption was that the two had eloped.

Let's not talk about whether Ruth and Jack are in love, and don't think about whether he still likes Ruth.It is unforgivable that Ruth still bears the name of the Hockley family's fiancée, and she escapes like this!

But this does not affect Karl to participate in the trial on Monday. He, like all other businessmen, is happy to see the collapse of an empire that is about to be built.

It seems that the Hockley family has successfully escaped from the shadow of the shipwreck.But the bushes under their feet were not seen.

——The situation of the Hockley family has become very difficult, and he must seize every opportunity.Green's overturn is a good opportunity.

Hockley has always wanted to get involved in the raw material market, but he has always suffered from the lack of access points. Once Green falls, Carl can immediately acquire the other party's raw material market in Mexico and restore the glory of the family.

On the same morning, an unknown number of people drove to the courthouse in downtown New York with their own thoughts.

The court is in the city center and is a symmetrical European-style building with a history of more than 100 years.Although we have tried our best, the justice and dignity bestowed by the judiciary can be seen in the details of the weathering and bumps of the building as time goes by.

There are all kinds of cars parked on the streets not far from the court, some of which are expensive, and some of which are ordinary.Erica was sitting in the car driven by the secretary, secretly admiring the professionalism of the lady. She looked at the cars twice from the car window, and the bosses who came out of those cars.

These people are like some hungry and greedy hyenas, looking at you glaringly, trying to tear you up at any time and eat them in their stomachs.

"The last time this street was so lively, an American tycoon just collapsed."

Erica looked at the secretary, not sure what she had in mind when she told the story. "So that's not a good omen?"

"No, no, you don't have to worry about it. There are people who come out of here and have nothing, and there are people who come out of here and go to heaven. Mr. Green is a good man, and he is really innocent. I believe he will win This lawsuit."

Laymen watch the excitement, while experts watch the doorway.Evidence is required in court proceedings.However, Green's case was still put on the trial agenda despite the serious lack of evidence. Behind this, there is a group of people who are constantly making small moves.

"I hope so." The ultimate goal of gathering resources is to monopolize, and the ultimate dream of a businessman is to take a huge profit chain as his own. From then on, he will stand at the pinnacle of the financial industry and let the small fish and shrimps roll around wherever he wants , the top of the pyramid will not be shaken at all.

The harm caused by monopoly will not be discovered at all in recent decades.Businessmen are still evolving instinctively and constantly climbing up. They are part of history.

Erica has been getting better at talking on paper recently.From the time when her library on the Titanic was rejected by Glenn to her habit of keeping one book a day in the local street library in New York, she has changed a lot in a month, but it is still far from enough.

She can see some things from the book, and combine these things to deepen her understanding of the times.But there is no way to prevent a bloody encounter.

"Miss Secretary. I'm assuming that Mr. Green doesn't know about my testimony in court." Erica's voice sounded a bit weird, and the competent Miss Secretary looked at the pocket watch in front of the car. It was still early.

She had been waiting for this question from Erica for a long time.In fact, when Lawyer Wayne gave her the job, he told her that if Miss Erica asked about Mr. Green, she could answer truthfully.

"After our research, our professional opinion is to let you appear in court. Of course, we also referred to Mr. Green's own proposal." But in the end their decision was to ignore Green's very impulsive proposal.

"Then you must have seen those two men standing by the side of the road. I'm not sure if it's your boss and . . . Mr. Green."

When the car arrived here, because there were many pedestrians passing by in the alley, the speed of the car was very slow.In addition, Erica has been looking at the scenery outside the window, so almost immediately, she saw Green on the side of the road.

He was talking with Mr. Wayne, but for a moment, the eyes of the two men met strangely inside and outside the car.

Erica screamed unlucky in her heart, and stiffly asked Miss Secretary this question.

Miss Secretary also saw this scene from the rear mirror.Her boss was walking briskly with his client towards their car.At this time, pretending to be stupid and driving away will not solve the problem.Miss Secretary braked and stopped the car.

The two ladies got out of the car, just as the two gentlemen walked up to them.

Erica saw the obvious disapproval in Green's eyes. At first, her scalp tingled, as if her teacher caught her cheating in the exam, but then she looked back confidently, and she didn't seem to do anything. What's wrong!

"Then Miss Erica, can you explain to me why you are not on the cruise ship back to London at this time?" Green's voice sounded a little dangerous.

The thing he was most relieved at first was that Erica was no longer in New York at this time.He has already paid off the girl's family debts, and he also learned about the situation Erica will face when she goes back.

Of course, this situation is not perfect.His girl had a rather unreliable baron as her fiancé, and the Hockleys were involved.And the little girl's family itself is not very reliable, and her father is simply stupid in business.

However, even though Green knew the difficulties Erica was about to face, he still decided to let Erica go back.

Green has never stated in public that he is Erica's suitor.On the boat before, the signs that had been there were also snuffed out by himself.

If he helps Erica clear up all the troubles, it will be a very strange thing for others, which will easily make his opponents think that Erica is his weakness, and for Erica's future husband Said, he probably can't accept that his wife has an unknown... friend?

"Before I explain, you may wish to tell me why you know so well when I will be in London?"

Green was silent for a moment.Wayne, who was standing next to him, couldn't help it, so he smirked.

Attorney Wayne had calculated well.He arranged for the secretary to let Erica enter the court, and he and Green arrived half an hour later, which was a good time difference. When Erica went to court, Green could no longer stop her.

It's just that now... Mr. Lawyer couldn't help laughing when he saw a man and a woman looking at him at the same time.

He already regarded Green and Erica as a couple in his heart.In fact, it was hard not to let him misunderstand their performance.

——Look, the two people even looked at him with the same expression.

If this is not love, it must be...they haven't expressed their feelings to each other yet.

"I arranged for Miss Erica to testify in court." Very well, Lawyer Wayne's heart was in tears.Only lenient confession will end well. Now that he has been discovered, he readily admits it.

"I remember I said, don't let Erica appear in court." Green turned to Erica and said, "Miss Erica..."

"Call me Miss Dalton." Erica lazily interrupted Green's words, and she felt very heartbroken seeing Green like this.He solved the family problems for him for no apparent reason. Does he think he is a great savior?

Green choked on Erica's words, he clenched his fist, and said clearly to Erica: "Miss Dalton, I remember I told you that I don't need your help."

Communicating with old men is troublesome!

Erica rolled her eyes mentally.She is quite straightforward in doing things, especially in terms of feelings.The other party likes himself and helps him, but he doesn't ask for anything in return. It's just to reduce a little regret.

In this regard, Erica simply changed the subject, and said bluntly to Green: "When I was on the boat, I heard the conversation between you and Ren, and I felt that I should just give up, and I did. I did. But now, because of some of your behavior, I probably have to ask. Green, do you like me?"
