Age of the Titanic Wasn't an Issue

Lai Fujie only wanted to hand over the jewelry box to Lu Shi, and he didn't hear about the others, so he didn't say anything about it.

"Why are you silent? I remember it seemed that a wealthy businessman got it at auction that day. How did you come back here?" Lu Shi took a step forward and asked Lai Fujie.

"Master Carl bought this from that rich businessman. It's not very valuable in the first place. Don't ask, Mrs. Lushi." Lai Fujie explained a few words casually.

"Really? Did Carl send someone to follow me? Or did Molly tell him? I'm auctioning off my own jewelry. It's mine. It wasn't Carl who gave it to me. He gave it to me. I haven't moved, so why do you need to spy on me like this? Does this mean you don't trust me?" Lu Shi suddenly went into a rage, and questioned Lai Fujie, or questioned Karl through Lai Fujie.

"Mrs. Lushi, please don't make trouble out of no reason. Master Carl is working hard to make the two of you happy. Why are you arguing about this section? It's just because you are worried about your safety that you have arranged people around you to protect you." Yes." Lai Fujie was very upset, so he said to Lu Shi.

Lu Shi fell silent after hearing this. She didn't like being watched like this, but she couldn't help but accept Karl's kindness.

"Forget it, these may be my nervousness. Then, did Carl ask you to bring me a message?" Lu Shi thought for a while before asking Lai Fujie.

Lai Fujie is a little satisfied with what Lu Shi said now, anyway, he should first ask if Carl is safe.

"Well, Master Carl asked me to bring you a message. He said that he is very good and is now dealing with business affairs. By the way, Mr. Nathan may find a time to see you. Please don't be afraid when the time comes and face him normally. That's right, the other Master Karl will take care of it." Lai Fujie thought for a while before saying.

Lu Shi was a little nervous when she heard this, because she couldn't do her son's ideological work, so she must be talking about herself.

"Okay, I see. I will tell Mr. Hawkley well, and I will wait for Carl to come back. Are you going back this time?" Lu Shi raised her head and asked Lai Fujie.

"What's the matter, do you need me to help bring the letter to Master Carl? If necessary, then I will come and get it tomorrow." Lai Fujie asked.

"Yes, then come and get it tomorrow." Lushi nodded.

After Lai Fujie left, Lu Shi went upstairs to write letters.

Mr. Nathan Hawkley did not keep Lushi waiting long.Just five or six days after Lai Fujie left, Lu Shi received an invitation letter at the villa.

Lushi opened the letter and read it.The general meaning is to meet Lu Shi, in the restaurant of the Eisen Hotel.

Lu Shi checked the time and knew that it was two o'clock in the afternoon the next day.Looking at the location, he knew that Mr. Hawkley lived here.Lu Shi intends to go to the appointment, anyway, at least she should meet her first.

The next day, after lunch, Lushi chose a dress that suited her skin, and asked Molly to braid her hair.She put on her makeup lightly, wore the necessary necklaces and rings, and left nothing else on.

Thinking about going there, although the man had to wait there first, but Lushi's situation was different.So I went out early.

The car brought Lushi to the Eisen Hotel.After being taken to a secret place by the window by the waiter in the hotel restaurant, Lushi casually ordered a glass of milk.

Lucy sat there quietly, drinking milk, reading magazines, waiting for Carl's father, Mr. Hawkley, to explain.

Lu Shi was looking down at the report about Margery Brown.

"Unexpectedly, Mrs. Bucket is so young and beautiful." At this time, a gentleman's deep voice came from the opposite of Lushi.

When Lu Shi heard it, she knew that she was familiar with her, or that she was the Mr. Hawkley she was waiting for.

Immediately raising his head, he saw a man leaning on a civilized stick, with a head of slightly gray hair, which was golden-yellow from time to time.The wrinkles on the face are evenly distributed, probably because of the good care, she looks a little younger than her original age.

"Mr. Hawkley?" Lushi asked tentatively.

"Hmm, I'm sorry, it's really my fault to let the lady wait for me." Hawkley was unexpectedly humble.It can be seen that he was talking to Lu Shi as an equal.

"No, or in a certain sense, it's not your fault. You should know all about the relationship between me and Karl, so it's not bad for me to come first." Lu Shi thought for a while, He smiled lightly at Mr. Hawkley.

Hawkley looked in amazement at this young and outrageous woman opposite him. She was originally an in-law, but now she was the candidate to become his wife.Life really is changing all the time.

"Then let's not mention this anymore. I invite Mrs. Bucket to come here today. I think you should know what kind of attitude I have. I believe that Lai Fujie should have told you when he brought the jewelry over a few days ago. Right. You are another person who will let you think about it later, and the future is unclear for the two of you." Mr. Hawkley still asked Lu Shi unhurriedly.

Lu Shi looked at Mr. Hawkley who was so perfect and gentlemanly.Obviously speaking so slowly, the tone is calm, but the meaning of these words is beyond doubt.This is not optimistic about the relationship between himself and Karl.

"I know, I should be against it. Maybe I'm too old. Hehe, I was originally a mother-in-law, but now I have become a wife. In your eyes, I should feel crazy, Karl, it is indeed a bit crazy. I originally I thought so too. But when Carl sucked snake venom for me regardless of his life, I was really moved. Why not, I am only 36 years old this year. Looking at my young appearance, it should be I can live for many years. Thinking about it, there is only a nine-year gap between me and Karl. I think I should be brave and not let Karl fight alone." Lushi looked at Hawkley.

"Papapa" "It's really good, it's really touching, if you can, you can go to a movie, don't you think, Mrs. Bucket." Mr. Hawkley smiled and clapped his hands to Lushi Said.

"I agreed with Carl to marry your daughter Rose because I thought she had a title. My children and grandchildren can also inherit it. You see, I am such a philistine, but what can I do? This is how it is in the United States. You want You know, in order to do this, I asked Karl to pay off all the debts for your family. But relatively, I will resolutely obliterate those that damage the interests of the family and affect the reputation of the family, and obliterate this danger in the cradle Mrs. Bucket, go back to your England before the facts are made. If you have time, tell your love story to other sensual people. It won't work with me." Hawkley said to Lu Shi unceremoniously.

Lu Shi knew that Mr. Hawkley would not agree.Just looking at him, not knowing what to say.

"Mr. Hawkley, I think you came to me because you couldn't do a job with Carl. If you persuade me to leave, Carl will be able to give up. Yes, under your education, Carl should give up love. Let me call it love." Lu Shi looked at Mr. Hawkley's disdainful expression, and just appended this sentence at the end.

"Then why do you have to drive me to the UK? I think Carl is an adult, and if you drive me to the UK, he should come over too. Then how will you stop us? Why don't you convince Carl yourself , I’m just here, watching Carl’s performance, if he gives up on me first, then I will never pester you. I have my own pride, and I won’t become a mistress or something, so don’t worry.” Lu The poem said to Mr. Hawkley.

Mr. Hawkley listened to it, and it was not unreasonable, and he couldn't convince the other party under both sides.For the sake of the family's face, I would never let Lushi in.

"Are you sure you won't go to Karl? Even if he comes to you, you won't see him?" Mr. Hawkley asked Lushi suspiciously.

Lushi just shook her head, watching Mr. Hawkley about to get angry.

Then he said: "I'm not going to find him. As for him coming to me, I'll see him. Because this is my love, although I can't fight for it, I have to maintain it, right? You can imprison him, or Give him a lot of work, doesn't he have no time to come see me?"

"Let's see what your idea is. But it's useless. I think he will forget you soon. By the way, he almost forgot. Karl is very affectionate, and even now he has many lovers. Maybe He will miss you more because of your age. Or maybe you look like Rose." Mr. Hawkley stared at Lu Shi, and didn't want Lu Shi to return to Carl like this, ruining the relationship between the two fathers and sons .

"Really? But at least I haven't seen it yet, maybe. But I'll give him two years, and if he can't marry me after two years, I will leave automatically. To a place where no one knows me." Don't worry, two years is nothing more than a blink of an eye to you." Lu Shi felt pain in her heart when she heard what Hawkley said, but she chose to believe in Carl, maybe she was the last one What about the Terminator?The day you know you can no longer believe it.

Mr. Hawkley weighed the pros and cons and decided to agree with Lu Shi's statement.In fact, didn't those people handle it in the same way, but this Lushi was the second person Karl wanted to marry after Rose.So I decided to have a look.Sure enough, there is something true about this Lushi.Now at the age of 36, she still looks like a matte in her twenties.This is not at all like the age of Westerners.Instead, I think of the far east, where women are meticulous, even though their facial features are not clear enough.But this skin is needless to say, smooth and firm.I have been there myself, enjoyed a few, and even participated in some high-end balls. Although those officials and wives are dressed conservatively, their skin is not covered.

"Well then, don't get entangled when the time comes. As for the villa you live in now, I heard that you bought it with [-] pounds. I'll treat it as half bought and half given to you. I think you should also know the value of it That's it." After all, Mr. Hawkley is a businessman, and he has even thought about the severance fee after two years.

"Okay, thank you Mr. Hawkley for your generosity. If there is nothing else, I will leave first. I still have some work to do." Although Lu Shi said that she didn't have any work, she didn't want to stay here anymore.

"Although I don't know what kind of job Mrs. Bucket is looking for, and learning to be with those poor brats is a job. But I still want to say casual." Mr. Hawkley said to Lu Shi.

When Lu Shi heard this, she was only slightly taken aback, but she still walked away with a smile on her face.Never looked back.

It was just an excuse that I didn't go to the orphanage anymore.Or you can go back to write novels now, women or something, if you become rich, very rich, then Mr. Hawkley will change his mind.But this is not something that can be accomplished overnight.

Lu Shi returned to her room and decided to continue writing novels.

Seeing that Lushi came back, Mo Li immediately took Lushi's manuscript and came to Lushi's room.

"Ma'am, you're back. Have you seen Master Hawkley? I don't know what to say?" Molly said to Lushi.

Lu Shi raised her head from the manuscript. Curious about Molly, she just raised her eyebrows and said, "This matter doesn't seem to be your concern, but forget it. Do you have anything to say? What exactly did you say? You must have guessed it."

"I'm just asking for Master Carl. Sorry, I called Master Carl for the jewelry last time." Molly thought for a while before saying.

"I know, I guessed it. Forget it, Karl does care about me, but I don't want me to have nothing private, which makes me feel bad. We just love each other, not each other's prisoners. Don't be random anymore Is there anything else to do? If not, you can go out first, I still have to write a novel." Lu Shi said with a sigh.

"Yes, ma'am, I have already finished reading this novel. It is generally good. Although it is a children's book, it should be okay. I read it to the children in the neighborhood and it was very popular. If it is published, it should be It will be fine." Molly immediately said to Lushi.

Lu Shi was taken aback for a moment, wondering if Molly would come up with such a way to read it to children, which is a good way to gather meaning.

"Okay, you can put the manuscript here. I'll go find Molly in a few days. Only by publishing it as soon as possible can I make money. In this way, Mr. Hawkley won't say that I'm clinging to Carl." Lu Shi's bad mood instantly calmed down, and she said to Mo Li.

"Okay." Molly left after putting down the manuscript.

Lu Shi picked up the pen, but still couldn't write anything, maybe she was too excited and had no inspiration at all.

"But Molly is so busy, she's not at home at all now, and there's nothing she can do if she goes by herself." Lushi stood up and said to herself.Holding back, An Nai suppressed the beating of her mind, and Lu Shi once again forced herself to write silently.Yes, it is dictation, this is a mansion given to me by rebirth, although it is not of much use to me, but it is a little bit good now, so I don't have to worry about my mood.The same is true for later revisions.

After dinner, Lushi brought her manuscript to Margery Brown's house.

"Oh, Lushi, I haven't seen you for several days. I heard that you have been staying at home. What's the matter?" Margaery Brown greeted Lushi warmly as usual.

"Dear Molly, have you had dinner yet? I don't have anything to do, and I can't help at the orphanage, so I'm just writing a novel at home. As for things, I don't have much, I just don't like going out. You should know that I was bitten by a snake the second day I arrived here, so I still don't go out. I prefer to stay at home." Lu Shi smiled and said to Margaery Brown.

"Oh, so it looks like this. Forget it, let's go in. Seeing you look like this, I must help you with something. I'm ready." Margaery Brown said while pulling Lu Poetry goes in.

"Molly, you are really good at talking. Indeed, I really have something to ask you. Didn't I ask you about the publishing house last time? I have already revised the first part. If possible, you can help Do you want me to contact you?" Lu Shi said and handed over a manuscript.

Margery Brown took it immediately after listening to it. Looking at the thick manuscript, she didn't know what to say.But since Lu Shi wants to do this, then I can help myself, even if I can't publish it, I can still pay for it at my own expense.But this is more expensive.

"Okay, since you're ready, let's go tomorrow. It just so happens that the orphanage has come to an end, so I'm free now. The rest of the time is also rich." Margery Brown nodded Said to Lu Shi.

"It's really great, Molly, you are really my savior. Ah, I'm in a really good mood." Lushi hugged Margaery Brown excitedly.

"Tell me, did you encounter any unhappy things today, otherwise you don't have to be so exaggerated. I always think you are a calm person and don't hug people easily. Although I am allowed to hug you, but Your body is stiff and you shake hands to know if something has happened to you, so you have strengthened your idea of ​​publishing a novel." Margery Brown said to Lu Shi with an expression that I knew.

Lu Shi was not surprised at all that Margery Brown was able to guess her own thoughts. She should have already shown her bad mood on her face.Although I spoke well in front of Mr. Hawkley, I was still very depressed about such a relationship that was not ordered. Even if I was originally happy that my novel might be published, what was the use of it?

"I really can't hide anything from you. That's right, I met Mr. Hawkley at the Eisen Hotel today." Lushi lowered her head and said to Margaery Brown.

"Mr. Hawkley? Carl, oh, I'm sorry, it shouldn't be him. Your name should be Carl. So it's his father, Nathan? It's possible to think about it. It's impossible for him to agree with you .Because he has always believed that he has noble blood. Of course, this ghost knows if it is possible. After all, he does not have any titles. And what kind of place is the United States. 100 years ago, it was just a colony and a place where prisoners were exiled. There are very few nobles. Even if there are, they are not very noble, at most a quasi-baron. It is incomparable with your baron. But I have seen his stubbornness, Lushi, you can only grind it slowly " Margaery Brown looked at Lu Shi sympathetically, and she didn't know how to comfort her, but that was all she could say.

"Really? It turns out that he has such a deep-rooted idea in his bones. I said, even if we pay back the money for our family, he must marry Rose. It turns out that it is for the title of knighthood. But I am really sorry, I still have some serious problems. No, the Bookett family is extinct. The title of baron must have been taken back by the Queen." Lu Shi shook her head and said.

Although Margaery Brown said she cared about Lushi, she really didn't like the couple.There are only a few words of comfort.The others couldn't say anything.

"Okay, don't comfort me anymore, I'll give myself two years to accept this relationship indulgently. If Carl can't do it and can't convince me, then I can't help it. Maybe I really told Mr. Hawkley Find a place where you can’t find people to settle down. Well, I think China is good, and you know I like Chinese food very much.” After thinking about it, Lu Shi still thinks that going to her hometown in her heart is the best. OK

Margery Brown didn't expect that Lucy actually had such a plan.

"Lushi, how can you think like that? Are you just letting Carl fight alone? Although I don't like the relationship between the two of you, don't you even make any effort? Like this, you have How could it last for a long time? You should have overcome all obstacles to be with Karl." Margaery Brown looked at Lu Shi with a disappointed face and said.

Lucy laughed when she heard that. "Molly, what do you think of me? I am not young anymore. It is not easy to muster up the courage to love so much. I don't think I have much strength. Let it be. I should Trust Carl. Oh, don't you?"

Margaery Brown just rolled her eyes and stopped talking to Lushi.

"Okay, don't you see that I am also working hard? If my book is finished and the sales are good, then I will become a celebrity, and Carl can be with me. If I have money, I think Hawkley Mister probably won't give up. Don't you see? I didn't just sit and wait like this." Lu Shi said comfortingly.
