[Titanic] Harbor

Since [-], women's suffrage has been a focal issue.As the conflict intensified, street speeches and protests abounded.In the class that Erica lives in, the elders generally strictly restrict their children from joining this trend.

But the trend is always irresistible.

Erica had finished her morning reading when the lawyer came.Mr. Dalton took very seriously what Erica had brought up.Yesterday afternoon, he contacted Erica with a local medical university in London.

In April, a new semester has begun.Although, with the generous donation of Mr. Dalton, Erica was transferred to study smoothly.But for Erica, she also faced two serious challenges.

First of all, she had to keep up with the heavy workload of medical school. She was a full half semester behind other students, which was definitely a very difficult task.Secondly, she still needs to complete other subjects besides medicine, and those heavy reading and writing tasks are not easy to complete.

"Miss Erica, are you reading Shakespeare?"

Erica looked at the young lawyer and thought it was quite interesting.Being young often means not playing cards according to common sense.

"I'm preparing for my classes starting on Monday, and I don't want to make a fool of myself," Erica replied with a smile.Although she knew that the other party was a lawyer, Erica hadn't figured out why he came.

Shakespeare was her study project this morning.It is also the content of the university cultural class assignment in the first week she is about to start.

Fortunately, Shakespeare's works had already been studied systematically in a private school, and Erica could still pass the cultural class in the first week relatively easily.

But the later subjects, those like Scott, Byron, Chateaubriand, Coleridge...

Erica said that she had never heard the names of these people, what are they doing?She has no idea!

"Are you so young that you can teach the school's students?" The young lawyer saw Erica's expression was a little stiff, so he made up for it: "Actually, even if you are a teaching assistant, you have a very good grade."

"Sorry, I think you probably misinterpreted my meaning." Erica smiled brightly at the lawyer, "I'm a freshman."

Next, Erica had the honor to admire the lawyer's 'fantastic' expression.

The other party quickly jumped out of this little episode. His original purpose was to ease the atmosphere. Now that the goal was achieved, the young lawyer straightened his body and said to Erica very authentically: "Eleigh Miss Ka. I think I would like to introduce myself, my name is Colin, and I am here to discuss with you about the inheritance of one of your 'distant relatives'."

"Inheritance?" Erica once thought that this word would never have anything to do with her in her life.After all, it seems that women are not allowed to inherit property in this era, right?

Seeing Erica's weird expression on him, Colin straightened his waist even more. "Yes. Your distant relative, Ms. Mei, entrusted me and after her death to hand over this inheritance to you."

"This is the proof of the relationship between you and Ms. Mei." Colin took out a single-page document.There are not many words on it, but there are many stamps, which looks very professional.

Erica put the document on the table.The intricacies of family relationships in this era are not easily explained.The Dalton family can also be regarded as a revival family.The reason why they dare to call themselves nobles is not only because of Mr. Dalton's poor little knighthood.

Going back several generations, there must have been a baron in their family, right?

So things like family relationships, as long as you want to connect them, you can always make them work.Regarding this point, there is also a small world effect in later generations to prove it. *

Seeing Erica's lack of interest, Colin took out another document.

This document is very thick, and the words on it are dense, "Miss Erica, you just need to read the content on the last page." Things that are real money are often more likely to attract others.

According to what he said, Erica looked at the content on the last page-the property of thirty thousand pounds.With such a property, it would look good in a dowry.

Erica looked up at Colin, she didn't trust the stranger.There are no ID cards in this era, and most people rely on their conversation and letters of introduction, and one who is not prepared is deceived: "Maybe you can tell me when my 'distant relative' who was 'unknown' passed away." of?"

"Three days ago." The lawyer's voice was heavy, "she died of tuberculosis."

Erica nodded. If it is true, this is a very tortured way of death. Among the incurable diseases in this era, the name tuberculosis carries a shadow of death.

"She is a very respectable person. Ms. Mei was a generation of socialites when she was young. She has always been committed to charity and women's rights movement. She has also published two popular novels in her free time."

"If she has no children, she should donate her inheritance to charity. Why did she come to me?"

"Five days ago, Ms. Mei heard your story in a New York court when she was critically ill. She felt that you had hidden good qualities, dare to stand up, stand up for your principles, and fulfill your rights. Not all ladies are willing to disclose Standing in court to speak out your own testimony. In private, Ms. Mei especially likes the part where you run away from home."

The young lawyer probably didn't know that when he was talking about Mei, there seemed to be a flame burning in his eyes.

Erica watched him silently for a moment.Since Mr. Dalton put this person in, it means to let her figure it out.

It can only be said that how strict Mr. Dalton was in controlling her in the past, how loose he is now.

If Erica really inherits the £[-] inheritance, her dowry will look much better.Even if not, Mr. Dalton has nothing to lose.If she were Mr. Dalton, she would choose to let it go.

But Erica had to admit that when she heard the short life journey of this Ms. Mei, deep down in her heart, a fire that had been extinguished seemed to be burning again.

She heard her own voice and asked very coldly: "All I care about is whether this document has legal effect."

Colin showed a bright smile, "You are free to use this fund anywhere you want. Ms. Mei yearns for freedom, so she didn't limit any usage of this fund." He paused, Answered the question that Erica wanted to know the most, "Of course, this has legal benefits. Sometimes we can always get what we want through some exchange of interests."

Erica nodded.She said surprisingly little today, but on the other hand, she felt that she might be able to start the plans that she had kept sealed since she came to this world.

"I will read the documents carefully. If there are no problems, I don't think I will let Mrs. May down."

The two briefly performed a social courtesy.The lawyer glanced at his pocket watch tactfully, and then left politely.

Erica sat alone in the dining room for a while, leafing through the newspapers on the table—the ones Mr. Dalton had left there after reading them.

She got up and walked to her room.As a poor 'older' transfer student, she still has a lot to do!

Green was already on board a ship bound for the English docks.Unlike Erica's situation, Mr. Privy Councilor had a great shadow over the time of day.

Drifting alone in the sea, the shaking feeling of his feet not being able to step on the ground, and the horror of falling into the sea if he stepped on the ground, surrounded him all the time.

To put it bluntly, Mr. Green is very sorry—from a landlubber to a landlubber with hydrophobia.

This is really not good news.

The Privy Councilor was lying on his big bed, turning blue whenever he thought that he was at sea.

"Is there really nothing wrong with Mr. Green? Is there really nothing wrong with Mr. Green? Mr. Green..." His new secretary repeatedly asked the doctor with some uncertainty.

"This is just a very common seasickness phenomenon. The only difference is that Mr. Green may have a little shadow on that matter. There is no way to do it." The doctor repeatedly emphasized this issue to the secretary helplessly.

Walking out of Green's room, the doctor also let out a long breath.Mr. Green opened the American market in less than two months.

Although there is an unexpected factor of Titanic time in this, the ability of the Privy Councilor itself is the most important factor.

Probably all famous people want to go back to their hometown to show off?The doctor was walking in the corridor with his own medical kit. He felt that he shouldn't gossip about Mr. Green, but he seemed to have heard that Mr. Green remembered to go back to England this time to chase a girl.

Green didn't know what the doctor thought of him outside, but even though he was lying on the bed, he clearly felt the malice from the sea.

Before boarding the ship, Green realized that he might have a fear of water. It was precisely because of this problem that he rented this ship at a high price. Perhaps his symptoms would disappear when he was on this traditional ship. weak?

This medium-sized ship was actually the one that Green took in that incident.If it wasn't for the power of Willow's family to be underestimated, Green really wanted to take the ship that Erica was on under his banner.

In the eyes of outsiders, his behavior may have a little commemorative significance, and it did make his company's stock price rise by one percentage point.

Green lay quietly on the bed 'lying corpse'.His room was very quiet. When he was drowsy, he suddenly felt a fluffy touch in his quilt. He didn't know what it was, but he just felt creepy!

The Privy Councilor quickly pulled back his own bed sheet, and then looked at a mouse that was already gray, leaving a gray stain on his white bed sheet.

That's right, it was his lost pet!

A rat already hungry enough to eat the sheets...
