[Titanic] Harbor
Chapter 65
Things did not develop as the two parents expected.Some words are said to be overwhelmed and difficult to take back, but after some words are spoken, it is a kind of relief.Erica has never denied Green's influence on her, and she has no intention of embellishing this feeling with words such as baby bird plot, but at least one thing, she can learn to get out of it.
As long as there is enough time, just let her brew quietly alone.Then everything will be fine.
In the evening, when the sun sets, the red clouds in the sky are layered upon layer, like a pot of stewed tomato soup, bright red and dazzling.Erica was wearing a blue dress, walking alone on the streets of London under the afterglow.
She should be thankful, after all, because of her height, she didn't wear high heels to go out, otherwise such a long journey would be even more difficult.
Under the radiance of the setting sun, Erica's blue dress looked like a drop of water about to be baked clean.
"Isn't this Miss Erica?" Someone came from behind and patted Erica on the shoulder.
Erica turned her head - it was the young lawyer who helped her with the inheritance before, and it seemed to be... Colin. "Mr Colin, nice to meet you."
Colin also nodded.He asked Erica curiously: "From your attire, do you seem to want to attend the banquet? If you need any help from me, please feel free to ask."
"No, no, I'm getting ready to go home."
"Just walk back like this?"
"Why not?" Erica always felt that Colin's expression was very handsome, because Colin was the kind of person who wrote everything on his face.
"I just think...you are very similar to my mother." When he said this, the young lawyer had obvious trance and nostalgia on his face. After he finished speaking, he waved his hands and apologized: "Of course, I am not Speaking of your age...I mean Shen Yun...no...temperament." He seemed to feel that no words could describe what was in his heart, so he waved his hands again and again, as if to cross out all the previous words.
"I don't think it would be a derogatory term to be compared to a mother at any time." Erica's words made Colin relax a little.
The young lawyer calmed down. He stretched out his arms for Erica to hold, and said to Erica, "I'd be happy to walk with you for a while, ma'am."
They walked down an avenue in this way, as if they were about to step into a huge banquet.
Green sees it all.The poor driver looked at the gloomy face of his boss, and expressed deep condolences for his life in the future.
"You know the address of Lawyer Wayne." Green finally glanced at the young men and women who walked into the sunset, and then closed his eyes to rest after giving instructions to the driver.
The black Rolls-Royce started slowly, backed up and drove to another place, without disturbing the two people walking together at all.
"Ms. Mei is your mother!" As the conversation with Colin deepened.Erica was surprised to find that her inheritance actually came from the young lawyer's elders. "Shouldn't you be the first heir to the inheritance?"
Erica asked directly what she wanted to know.She had vaguely come up with an answer in her heart, and when the answer came out of Colin's mouth, she only felt more heavy.
"Because this is the wish of my mother. She always said that if we take a small step now, if we can move forward every day, women's lives will not be like this in a few hundred years."
"You agree with Ms. May's point of view?"
"Actually, I have never been able to deeply understand my mother's thoughts, but this does not prevent me from feeling with my heart. I think she is right, but it will take time to prove all this."
Erica is that proof.If she succeeds, Ms. Mei's hopes will not be in vain. If she fails, Colin will be very disappointed.
"Ms. Mei is a great person." When Erica said this, she was feeling.People have been pursuing the equality of rights, but this kind of ideological thing can only be achieved slowly and subtly.
Before, in her heart, Ms. Mei had always been the kind of person who held a sign and lobbied and gave speeches in the streets and alleys.Only just now did she realize that Mrs. May is a fundamentally changed person.
"I think I'm pretty good myself. After all, I can be self-reliant, so I don't have to think about how to inherit." Colin scratched his hair, "Are you going home? There is still a long way to go for Dun's house. My house is nearby, if you don't mind... you can come to my house for a sit down."
"Thank you so much." Erica's feet desperately needed a rest after walking for hours.It would be great to be able to stop at this moment.
As for why she didn't call a car, or just ask Green to take her back.
It's actually quite simple.She tried to stop the car, but she appeared alone on the street in such a dress, no driver was willing to stop for her.Similarly, now that she has rejected Green, she is really embarrassed to continue rubbing his car.
Erica and Colin walked into the house, talking and laughing.
This is a very old house with a mottled appearance, and ordinary thieves are unwilling to patronize such a dilapidated place.But in the house there is space inside, solid wood floors, a warm fire, and thick carpets.
"It's really unexpected." Erica admired the furnishings in the room.Delicate and heavy.The owner here is a collector, even someone with great artistic talent.
"This place was arranged by my father and mother." In a once warm family of three, Colin's expression was somewhat gloomy.
Colin walked behind Erica, because he wanted to close the gate so that this mysterious little world would not be exposed to the sight of passers-by.
When he walked in, he saw Erica standing in the hallway and didn't move.Colin asked with some doubts: "Why didn't you go in?"
"It seems to be because you have guests at home." Erica's smile became very stylized, she squeezed out a few words from between her teeth, and greeted the people inside before Colin could react.
They are still acquaintances.God is sorry, Erica's social circle is constantly going back and forth between these few people.
"Mr. Wayne, Mr. Green. It's been a long time."
Erica's long time no see meant something, and when Green saw Erica, his expression didn't seem much better.
Neither knew beforehand that Wayne and Colin were father-son.Green didn't even know who the young man traveling with Erica was.It just occurred to the Privy Councilor that he had few close friends in London.Even if there is, his friends are not very suitable when it comes to this kind of emotional issue.
After all, his friends are all much older than him, and there are not a few who have mistresses and illegitimate children at home.Asking them to make suggestions, Green felt that he would only go further.
After much deliberation, Mr. Green found Mr. Wayne who had cooperated with him once and had just ended the cooperation with him.
They had just sat down, and before they had said much, Erica and Colin entered.
"Father, do you have guests?" Colin was the only one who still couldn't figure out the situation.He hadn't seen the Privy Councilor, and he didn't know what happened.
"Didn't you see it all?" Mr. Wayne answered his son angrily.He and Green were playing chess in front of the fireplace. At this time, he had been attacked by the Privy Councilor.
"Then we can go upstairs." Colin didn't like that much.He attributes all of this to Erica's discomfort at seeing him have guests.
"Upstairs!" Mr. Wayne raised the volume: "You can sit with my guests, why go upstairs!" The second floor of his house never entertains guests.The son's girlfriend also failed to make it to the second floor.Because that was the place where his wife lived before her death, and it was also the last memory of their family.
"I don't think it's appropriate. We may not be able to listen to the topics you elders are talking about." Colin waved his hand, and his current appearance did not show any professional spirit in Erica's house.Professionalism is only required for his work, and no one has ever asked him to be so serious in life.
Erica was amused by this wonderful twist.Facing her were the blue faces of the two 'elders' opposite.But obviously, Colin didn't find anything wrong with his words at all.
The young lawyer grabbed Erica's sleeve and walked up to the second floor.Since his mother died, he had only the most basic communication with his father.He will not wrong his own wishes for the sake of his father's friends.
The two 'young people' went up to the second floor very 'pleasantly'.
The two 'elders' who were left behind looked at each other and were secretly angry.
"Maybe I really look 'about the same age' as you." Green, who was only in his early twenties, had a bad tone.
Luckily he didn't know it, and Erica always thought he was in his thirties.
"Colin is too young, but he has a girlfriend, and nothing will happen between him and Miss Erica." Wayne apologized that he focused his attention on the chessboard.
Green's murderous intent in playing chess was much better than the jealousy in the air.
Green frowned, and then turned his attention back to the chessboard. If there is anything, at least wait until the game is over and there is an ending.Of course, this game of chess doesn't take ten moves, and the person opposite him will return home in defeat.
At the fifth step, Green had just eaten Wayne's horse. When they saw Colin coming down the stairs, they asked excitedly, "Father, where is our book about Sudoku?"
"Perhaps crossword puzzles are more suitable for you two 'young people'." Seeing that Erica hadn't come down, Green stabbed Colin neatly.
It's a pity that the latter didn't catch Green's stalk at all, Colin didn't even realize that Green was mocking him, he stood on the first and a half floors and answered Green: "Erica's card arithmetic is very good. So we want to challenge some more difficult ones." He turned his head and asked Wayne, "It's not on the bookshelf upstairs, where did you put it?"
"It's in the third drawer." Wayne was helpless because of his idiot son who couldn't read his face. Now he just wanted to get rid of Colin quickly. If he could get away with Miss Dalton and Mr. Green Dashan, that would be great.
The two of them ran upstairs with Colin's pedaling.
As long as there is enough time, just let her brew quietly alone.Then everything will be fine.
In the evening, when the sun sets, the red clouds in the sky are layered upon layer, like a pot of stewed tomato soup, bright red and dazzling.Erica was wearing a blue dress, walking alone on the streets of London under the afterglow.
