[Titanic] Harbor

For a moment Green moved, as if trying to stop Erica from taking it.

But by the time Erica bent down, the Privy Councilor had already laid down on the bed somewhat resignedly.

Erica looked at Green, and with his tacit approval, opened the neatly folded strip.In fact, when she got the note, she felt a familiar feeling.

When I opened it, it turned out to be the one I wrote on the Titanic—"Remember to take your medicine."

Erica turned her head and looked at the Privy Councilor dumbfounded, as if she had discovered a little secret that Green had kept well hidden.

Now, the initiative is back in Erica's hands.

"Why do you still have this? Don't people usually put a picture in a pocket watch, or engrave a motto or something?"

"Because I haven't figured out why you wrote such a note to me." Green looked at Erica and said with some depression: "I thought of some reasons, but obviously not all of them."

"Huh?" Erica was a little curious about the reason why the Privy Councilor thought of it.

"First of all, you want me to take care of the maid who delivered the letter. I remember her name is Caddy?"

"Your memory for names is amazing." Erica praised his first conclusion.It's just a possibility. If Caddy wasn't on the same boat as Green, it wouldn't hurt too much. There is a one-third possibility, and it looks like he won in the end.

"Secondly, it literally means urging me to take medicine."

Green looked at Erica, who nodded.

"In the end, I guessed that you were dissatisfied with me, so 'drug' also has an ironic meaning." After finishing his guess, Green said, is there anything to add?

The almost childish dialogue between the two led Erica to recall the details of that day.

She remembered she wrote it after selling Green's shares.This is purely for fear that the Privy Councilor will be too emotional after knowing that his shares have been sold.

Unexpectedly, Green thought of so many comments.But after all, she couldn't tell Greene about it, so Erica asked, "So did you take your medicine on time?"

"Basically." An ambiguous answer.

"It seems that we should engrave this line on your pocket watch as a prominent reminder. Although others have engraved good lines and poems, we cannot deny that this line has the same effect on you. It works." Erica fiddled with Green's pocket watch, and it dawned on her that it wasn't the one Green had on the boat.

"Wait, you should have a lot of pocket watches. I remember that you wear different pocket watches on different occasions. And your watch chain is also changed according to the occasion." The Privy Councilor is not very particular about the decoration details of his home , but judging from his insistence on three-piece suits, he is definitely a traditional British man.

"Indeed." Green looked at his pocket watch.

In a sense, the pocket watch brand that Green wears also shows how fancy he is for an occasion.Erica played with Green's pocket watch.

—This pocket watch is more expensive than the one last time on the Titanic.It can be said that even wearing it to attend the royal wedding is decent enough.

Men's love for watches and clocks is just like women's love for jewelry.Erica put the pocket watch back on the table, and pressed the note under the pocket watch by the way.

"You can frame the note." She suggested to Green maliciously, and then said to the Privy Councilor, "Shouldn't you have something to eat?"

Unknowingly, the lonely man and widow have been in this room for more than half an hour.

Before Erica finished speaking, Green's personal servant also brought a bowl of porridge to the Privy Councilor.

Erica stood by Green's bed and nodded to the footman.Green's valet was a middle-aged man in his late thirties who didn't look like he was from England.Erica's keen judgment is usually infallible in anyone other than Green.

"You haven't eaten yet, let me ask them to prepare another one for you." Green looked at his porridge. If he didn't have a stomachache, they should be enjoying the dishes of the French restaurant now.

Erica looked at his plain porridge and asked in disbelief, "Can you eat it without adding anything?"

She looked at Green with a very pitiful look.This is not what she thinks about Green's eating habits as a person who came out of a gourmet country.This is purely carnivorous, sympathetic to Green.

"Isn't this what people with stomach problems eat?" Green picked up the spoon and started to drink the porridge naturally.

"Maybe I should expect that this bowl of porridge is sweet?"

Of course not, Privy Councilors don't have much of a sweet tooth.

"You should at least add some food." Seeing that Green was used to eating porridge like this, Erica had some doubts about how hard he had offended his family doctor.

She waited in the room for a while.After Green finished her porridge, she felt relieved to follow the servant to enjoy her lunch.

After lunch, the sun is just right.

The butler of Green Manor expressed great kindness for Erica's arrival.

The butler looked as if he and Green had come off the same assembly line.Forgive Erica for describing it that way.She is relatively sensitive to what other people wear.The clothes on the butler seem to be the style often worn by Privy Councilors.

Not all gentlemen give their old clothes to the housekeeper or the footman, and Mr. Dalton will not do so.But Green's approach is mainstream.

A kind of affirmation to his subordinates. After all, Green has worn the clothes a few times, so they are not very old.

Erica glanced at the butler for a while, and her attention returned to the layout of Green Manor.

"The previous owner of this manor was not good at running it." The butler led Erica in front, and he said to Erica in some ramblings: "Since I applied to be Mr. Green's butler, ah... also When Mr. Green took over the manor, he didn't make any changes to it."

Erica followed the housekeeper through the green area in front of the villa.This green area is well manicured. In this season, it is lush green and looks vibrant.

"But you've managed this place very well."

"There is a lack of a mistress here." The butler didn't look back, he walked forward on his own, and said casually: "Look, we don't have a rose house here, and there should be one in a normal manor. And this The overall layout of the estate is not stylish enough either."

The old butler took Erica to the back of the villa.This is indeed a garden, but no flowers are planted, and the grass is still neatly built. At most, it can only be called a grass garden. "Look, that's it. Green Manor hasn't held a queue for about ten years." It's really hard to come up with.

"Then...if he has any activities, what will happen to the venue?"

Green doesn't seem like much of a party guy.But parties are also part of networking.

"This...Mr. Green will hold it in his company. This is not something that my old butler needs to get involved in." There is no way to arrange Green's party, which makes the butler look quite dissatisfied.

Erica laughed dryly. "Actually, the rear can be transformed into a bush maze." She looked at the open space and thought that it would be quite beautiful if it could be transformed into the one in Alice in Wonderland.

"That's a really good idea. Mr. graduated from Cambridge and didn't even think of such a trick."

"He's from Cambridge."

"Of course. Mr. Green is a talented student. I remember when he was in college, he won the equestrian competition for three consecutive years!" The old butler took Erica for a short distance, and then turned back.

Green Manor covers a very large area. If you want to measure the entire manor on foot, it is impossible to complete it in less than an hour.The old butler then introduced Erica to the internal structure of the manor.

This is a Baroque building with the grandeur and imperfections of the older generation.

The Baron said goodbye to the Daltons in embarrassment.He still has a little difficulty accepting the relationship between Green and Erica.

What's so good about Erica? She's so rigid that she can't even have a kiss after getting engaged. Green might dump her later.

But no matter how maliciously the baron speculated about his fiancée.He couldn't even deny that his best chance to annex the Dalton family had been ruined by Green.And as long as the density adviser stays with Erica for a day, he dare not take any action against the Dalton family.

The baron was kicked out by the Dalton family in desperation.What gave them such courage?Of course it was between Erica and Mr. Green!

The baron put on his top hat resentfully, and got into his car.

At least he had Miss Elizabeth Hockley.Elizabeth has been getting more and more attention at Hockley's house recently.If nothing else, just talk about her cousin Carl.Since his fiancée ran away with someone else, he has been taking her to the banquet, officially introducing Elizabeth into high society.

The baron was sitting in the car, silently thinking about his own calculations.He wants to persuade Elizabeth to introduce himself to the Hockley family.That way at least he could talk directly to the Hockley men.Always pass Elizabeth, always feel inferior.

As a woman, you should dress up and go to the banquet.
