Age of the Titanic Wasn't an Issue

It was only the second day after the news spread that the Mayer family reported that Miss Mary Mayer had been disinherited and expelled from the family.As for the heir of the family, instead of choosing the second in line heir, choose a capable person to take over.

Karl is the one who pays the most attention to the Meyer family, so of course he knew the news immediately.And as early as when Patriarch Meyer convened a meeting, he knew about it.This is the news that Karl's efforts have brought.

Soon, Koons also came to discuss things with Carl.

"Boss, those people have come to contact me and asked us to support them in their positions. Now they all have a chance. Although the Mayer Patriarch emphasized that he cannot ask for foreign aid, there is no absolute justice in this world." , It depends on the concealment of which person's means." This is to convey opinions.

When Carl heard this, he just asked sarcastically: "At this time, do you want me to fight against Patriarch Meyer? These people don't seem to be a fuel-efficient lamp. This is not the time for me to make a move. Besides, what I want is for the Meyer family to be in chaos, so that I can get what I want in this chaos. By the way, I haven't received the notice of divorce from the Meyer family yet?"

Koons nodded in a taught manner, realizing that he was being too reckless.

"Not yet, I'm afraid we will have to wait until Miss Mary Mayer leaves the United States. I must give you an explanation. After all, she is not clean and self-sufficient." What Koons didn't say in his heart was, maybe this Just trying to drag Carl, maybe they already know that.

Carl just smiled, "I know if you don't tell me, maybe they already knew my purpose. After all, this Mary Mayer knew that I made her like this. I'm afraid the owner of the Mayer family must not He will let me go, and ruin the heir he has cultivated so hard, how can he let it go? But I knew these things when I started. If I was afraid, then I would not do it. Since I If I do it, then I won’t be afraid of being retaliated, or I’m fully prepared, even if he retaliates, I can handle it. No, it’s perfectly dealt with. I still look forward to his coming, I wouldn't let him turn around completely without paying the price."

Koons also found it very reasonable after hearing this. Since he has already made preparations here, he is no longer afraid, is he?

"Then how do you cancel your engagement? There must be someone who speaks first. You can't delay like this. Even if they are willing to delay, I think you are not willing, after all, Mrs. Bucket I'm waiting for you. If it's the time you promised and you haven't passed, then it will be troublesome. The two young masters are growing up day by day. If they don't recognize you by then, it will be even more troublesome Yes. After all, I heard from the doctor that Mrs. Bucket is not fit to have children anymore, otherwise, will there be any repayment for her body?" Koons said with a wry smile.

Carl said indifferently: "I don't have anything, and I will definitely solve it before the deadline. So you don't have to worry. And I warn you, what can you have children, don't show your mouth in front of Lushi, do you understand? She doesn't know about it yet, if you are sad because of this, I can't forgive you. "

Koons nodded after listening to Lianlian, saying that he would never say it.

"I see, then I'll go and talk to those people. In short, you won't help these people. It's best to refuse directly, so as not to have other hopes. It's not good if they fail at that time. "

Carl shook his head, and just said: "You just need to call one of them. Don't show up now. It's not the time for us to come out. Only wait for them to mess up for a certain time before doing it. Your task There are many more, let’s do all of this first, they are just our pawns to disrupt the Meyer family.”

Koons nodded again in understanding.

"Okay, now that you understand, let's go first. From tomorrow, we will look at the stocks of the companies owned by Mayer's family. First, because of the news of Mary Mayer, the stocks plummeted, so I bought a little. Today As soon as this news comes out, I think it will be able to rise soon. Hurry up and throw it away at the commanding heights. It is not the time for us to get involved in the companies of the Mayer family. We will buy in when it is lower. We have reason to believe that there are still This is even lower." Carl warned before Koons left.

"Yes, I see." Koons said and went out.

Wait for Koons to leave.Carl just looked at the phone in his hand, wondering whether he should call or not, and wanted to find out what Lu Shi said.Don't try to think hard about the future of the two of them here, and Lu Shi has already given up because of Rose's words, so wouldn't she cry to death.

In the end, I decided to make a phone call.

The call was connected soon, and the call was from Carl's own villa.Fortunately, although Lu Shi left, one or two people were still here to take care of the villa.A maid who received a call from Carl.

"Hello, who are you?"

"I'm Carl Hawkley, please answer the phone for Lushi."

"Uh, hello, Mr. Carl, Mrs. Bucket has moved to Mrs. Brown's estate. So there is no way to answer your call. You can call Brown's house directly." The maid said directly.

"Oh, I see." After Carl hung up the phone, he thought angrily, didn't he tell her when he was parting?Did she go to Molly's?Really forgot.

If you want to call Brown's house again, think about it or forget it. It's very late now, and the three of them, mother and child, should be asleep.Let's wait until tomorrow.

For Mayer's decision, many people in Philadelphia were surprised.If the first heir is expelled, isn't there still a second heir?Why set such complicated rules?

Karl knew that this was what the old guy, the owner of Mayer, did to get a few illegitimate children for himself.Everyone would know that Patriarch Meyer would not just let it go, no matter what, it was the authority in his own hands, and he was always unwilling to let it go so readily.

Why did the rest of the Mayer family agree? It wasn't because Mary Mayer was still alive and had the right to inherit.If Patriarch Meyer was really angered, Mary Meyer would be the Patriarch without hesitation.Then the Meyer family will not be a laughing stock by then.Therefore, after private adjustments by all parties, this decision was made today.

Not only Carl, but other aspiring families in Philadelphia are also mobilized. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.So Karl is not afraid at all that Patriarch Meyer will come to trouble him now.It's just that after the end, does he still have this chance?

The next morning, Carl decided to call Brown's home at nine o'clock.

"Hello, I don't know who you are?" The voice on the phone was the maid of Brown's family.

"Hi, I'm Carl Hawkley, and I'd like to ask Mrs. Lucy Bukett to answer the phone."

The maid was surprised when she heard this. How did she get a call from Mrs. Lucy Bukett?Don't they usually call the second floor?

"Mr. Hawkley, if you are looking for Mrs. Bucket, please call the number on the second floor. If you don't know, I will report it to you. What do you think? Because Mrs. Bucket is not You live in the main house, so it's better for you to call directly there." The maid said directly to Carl.

"Oh, well, just give me the number over there." Carl said helplessly.

Does rareness really indicate the failure of this relationship?Two phone calls were unsuccessful, and I couldn't find the person I was looking for to talk to.

Write down the number reported by the maid and hang up.Called this number again.

"Hi, hello, who are you?" Lila answered the phone.Carl heard it.

"Lila, I'm Carl Hawkley, is Lushi here? Ask her to answer the phone, I have something to say to her." Carl immediately felt better, and finally he was able to talk to Lushi.

"Oh, so it's Mr. Hawkley. Okay, wait a moment. I'll ask Madam to come down and answer the phone." Lila put down the phone and went upstairs to find Lushi.

Lushi is looking after her two sons, and she greets them every morning to get in touch with each other.Then I prepare for the day's work, whether it is writing or inspecting my own property.

"Ma'am, Mr. Hawkley is calling, please answer the phone." Lila said to Lushi with a smile.

Lushi was surprised that Carl didn't call her until now.It's been so long since I've been back to Philadelphia, why did I call myself?

"Oh, okay, I'll answer the phone right now." Lushi gently put the baby in the cradle, and then followed Lila down.

Go downstairs and pick up the phone.

"Carl, this is Lushi, what do you want from me?" Lushi asked Carl on the other end of the phone.

Before Karl heard Lushi's voice, he was very anxious, wishing to be in front of Lushi immediately.Now that I heard Lushi's voice, I was really speechless for a while.

"What's the matter, what's the matter with Carl? What's the matter with you, why don't you talk? If there's nothing else, then I'll hang up." Lu Shi didn't hear Carl's voice after listening for a long time, thinking that Carl was no longer on the phone It's gone, maybe it's because of other things.

"No, Lushi, I have something, I have something to tell you, or I miss you so much, I don't know what to say when I hear your voice. I want to ask you, ask you Did Rose come here a while ago?" After speaking, Carl swallowed a mouthful of saliva, waiting for the answer from Lushi.

After hearing this, Lu Shi froze there, and gradually blushed.

"Really? Well, I am a lot like you, Mickey and Tommy miss you too. If you can come and see them. No, these are my requests too much. You are so busy, how could you have It's time to see the two of them." Lu Shi said incoherently.

When Carl heard this, he understood it, which meant that after Rose's arrival, Lu Shi still hadn't changed his mind.In other words, Lushi was not persuaded by Rose to leave her.

Why did Carl think that Rose would object to the two of them, because according to normal people's thinking, they would generally object.So I'm a little nervous.

"Really? I miss you, mother and son, too. Don't worry, I'll be able to take you over soon. My promise will be fulfilled soon, and our family of four will be reunited. "Carl said softly.

After hearing this, Lu Shi grew younger.

"Oh, by the way, the Rose you mentioned just now, yes, she has been here. Er, but how did you know?" Lushi asked strangely.

Karl originally wanted to ask tentatively, but now he wanted to explain clearly how he knew these things.It can't be said that he is sending people to watch.

"Well, well, I have someone against you, so I sent some people to protect you. And I called back last night and found that you were not in the villa. You know I called a lot, really Makes me anxious." Carl tried to hide what he was sitting on.

After hearing this, Lu Shi didn't feel anything. The three of them, mother and child, really needed someone to protect them.After all, what happened to Mary Meyer, if you are not careful, it will still happen.Lu Shi couldn't forget the painful and thrilling experience at that time.

"Really? It turned out that these people told you. You called the villa, and you couldn't find me. It's not that I don't want to tell you. It's just that I don't have your phone number, so there is nothing I can do." Call you. And you didn't call me after you went back. "

Karl could hear the resentment in Lu Shi's words, but it was enough that he didn't pursue the matter of sending someone to follow Lu Shi.

"I know, but now is a critical time, I can't walk away, so I'm really sorry." Carl could only say apologetically.

When Lu Shi heard this, the resentment accumulated in her heart disappeared, and she could only say: "Forget it, I'm just complaining, okay, let's talk about business. Rose came to see me, what do you think?" Is it? Is it rare that you haven't turned out to be Rose? Don't you want the two of us to meet?"

When Lu Shi said this, she felt annoyed.A burst of anger came out of my heart again, was it rare that everything I said to myself was farting?Just want to forgive Carl?Now what is this?

"No, I'm just worried. I'm worried that Rose will say something bad and oppose the two of us. I'm afraid you will be moved by her, so I called, just want you not to be affected by her words." Carl quickly explained that he really didn't know how to explain it.

"Are you so sure that she will stop the two of us? Didn't you just come to see us? Are you so distrustful of her?" Lu Shi asked angrily.Although it was said that Rose came here to question herself directly, but it wasn't Karl who asked questions like this.

"I'm sorry, I just thought, forget it, it's useless for me to explain anything. I'm just afraid, I'm really afraid, you've finally forgiven me, and you're going to misunderstand me for one reason or another, so I just called in a hurry. So don't be angry, I'm just worried that you will be shaken by Rose's words." Carl could only explain repeatedly.

Lu Shi is actually just an emotion, and he can forgive him directly after hearing it.

"It was me who made trouble out of no reason. In fact, she didn't agree with the two of us being together at first. But now I have persuaded her, she will not ask us any more questions. It's just that it may be a little awkward for you to meet in the future. I heard you met her when you were in New York, didn't you?" Lushi asked calmly.

"Yes, I, I went with Mary Mayer. I also saw that poor boy, and saw that they all lived in the slums. It's not very safe, but she didn't want to accept my money either." Carl Said helplessly to Lu Shi.

Lu Shi laughed, this is Rose's character.

"Hehe, I know she has this personality. She is not even willing to accept my money. Of course, you are even more unwilling to accept money from your ex-fiancé. Well, now that you know the answer, you can feel at ease. By the way, you How is it?" Lucy asked concerned.

"I'm doing very well here, and I should be able to complete the task on time. Don't worry, I will definitely arrive before the children call their mother." Carl said with a smile.

"Oh, are you so confident? Very good, come on, but I still want to advise you, don't be too tired, the children and I depend on you." Lu Shi said to Carl with a smile.

"I have nothing to do here, but you, didn't you say you were going to open a factory last time? How is it? Is it finished?" How could Carl tell Lushi that he couldn't rest all night when he was so busy here? .

"Well, it's still under construction, and it will take some time before it goes into production, but there's no rush. Dr. Chu has developed a medicine for the first time, which is not enough. He needs to develop other pills, which should be able to catch up with the progress." Yes. Besides, I still have a snack factory project in hand, and the funds are a bit tight, I think I should be able to afford it after my second novel is published." Lu Shi said with a smile.

"Why don't you tell me how much money is missing? I'll send you the money directly. How about [-]? Is it enough?" Carl said directly with a smile.

Lu Shi disagreed and said: "No need, Carl, you know, I want to be independent. I don't want your money. You know it's better not to have any financial entanglements between us. I can solve it by myself. .”

"Why, I don't think we need to be so polite and alienated. Are you trying to draw a line with me now?" Carl was very sad.

"No, I just don't want the relationship between the two of us to change. You know, what is our relationship now? You still have a fiancee, so what am I, a mistress? I don't want to be called this, I just hope that the two of us can be equal, without financial ties. Well, that's all I have to say." After Lu Shi finished speaking, she stopped, depending on what Carl had to say.

After hearing this, Karl began to think deeply about how he should handle the relationship between the two during this period, although he could guarantee that the two would have results.But Lushi is still worried.

"I see, I respect your decision, but don't forget me when you are really in trouble. I will always stand by your side." Carl said to Lushi.

The corners of Lushi's mouth curled up. Although Carl couldn't see it, he could feel Lushi's happy mood.

"Well, well, I will take care of my affairs here. Don't worry, I just said that money is a little tight, but in fact, there is still money. Don't worry." Lu Shi said with a smile.

Carl was about to ask about Lushi's recent situation, but damn Koons came in.

"Boss, the meeting at 09:30 is about to start, you see?" Koons actually didn't want to come in and interrupt the boss's happy phone call.But there is really no way, everyone is waiting.And it should be possible to call in the future. As far as I know, Mrs. Bucket is often at home.As long as Carl is empty again.

Lu Shi on the other end of the phone also heard it.Just said directly: "Okay, Carl, then we will hang up. You can call anytime you are free. I often write at home. You should go to the meeting now, don't keep those people waiting gone."

Carl was ready to cancel, but now that Lu Shi was about to hang up, she could only agree.

"Okay, I'll call you tomorrow. Remember, just tell me if you have any difficulties, understand?" Carl urged Lushi.

"Got it, go fast. Those people are waiting for you to go to the meeting. It's not good if you miss the time. After all, it's a critical time. I've always worried about you about the Mayer family. During this period of time, I also learned about some families in the United States through Molly. I know that the Meyer family is a giant. You must not be careless, and you must take your time. If, if, I say if, one year I won’t blame you for not being able to finish it in half the time, as long as you are safe.” Lu Shi finally said what was in her heart, thinking that Karl should stop being radical, and the one who suffers in the end is himself.

"I'll pay attention. Well, I'm going to the meeting." After hearing what Lu Shi said, Carl didn't promise anything.How could I easily change the goals I set for myself? I must give Lu Shi, mother and son a place as soon as possible.

After hanging up the phone, Carl stared at Koons, not knowing what to say.

"Boss, I don't want to, but the Mayer family's stocks are abnormal, so I came to you. You have to decide all these." Koons said to Carl with a bitter face.

Carl immediately walked out of his office after hearing this, "Why didn't you say it earlier, come over quickly."

Koons thought what I wanted to say, but you didn't give me a chance.And I don't dare to disturb you chatting with Mrs. Bucket.But these can only be said in the heart.Not daring to live in front of Carl.Say it and it's over.
