Age of the Titanic Wasn't an Issue

The next day, Lu Shi was a little restless since the morning, maybe it was because of the publication.But in fact, if Margaery Brown is here, there is really no need to worry about this matter.After all, everything has been discussed, it's just because of the difference in the distribution of benefits.

After lunch, Lushi picked out a lavender dress.With Molly's help, he put on his clothes and took Molly to Margaery Brown's house.

When Lu Shi saw Margaery Brown, she said, "Molly, I can't calm down at home at all. I'd better come to you first. I think they should be here too."

"Hehe, I can see that you must be very nervous. Don't worry, you just called and said that you have already set off. I believe you will arrive soon." Margaery Brown looked at Lu Shi who was so nervous. Only then smiled and comforted.

Lu Shi didn't breathe a sigh of relief at all, but became even more nervous.

Seeing Lu Shi like this, Margery Brown could only shut up and stop talking. Really, she just wanted to comfort her.On the contrary, it made Lu Shi even more nervous. It seems that she has no talent for comforting others, so it's better to keep her mouth shut.

Soon, Margery Brown's lawyer arrived first. "My dear Mrs. Brown, I think this is Mrs. Bucket. Then I think we have something to talk about. So it's better to discuss it before the publisher comes."

Lu Shi was very satisfied after hearing this, and knowing that the lawyer was very responsible, she smiled and said: "Thank you, I think I only have one point, which is the share. I want [-]% of the share, after all, it is published with my money , I just use their sales channels. Are you right? Of course, there is still a [-]% chance to return it."

The lawyer nodded understandingly after hearing this: "I think I understand, Mrs. Bucket, it should be possible to negotiate here. You pay for everything that compares costs."

"Then I'll leave everything to you." Lu Shi nodded. Margaery Brown should have helped her solve the money problem.After I have made money, I can pay it back. After all, I only have £[-] besides the investment and publishing money.Looking at myself, I knew that money was too important. Although Karl kept the money for himself, he always felt that now was not the time to use the money.If Carl's money was used, this would be another trick for Mr. Hawkley to seize.

The lawyer nodded.

The editor of the publishing house arrived soon.

Margery Brown knew her, so she greeted her immediately. "Oh, Rice, you're finally here. We've been waiting for you. Let me introduce you. This is the author of this book, Lucy Bukett. You can just call me Mrs. Bukett. And This is my exclusive lawyer, I think the main thing today is the two of you talking. Our request has been communicated with the lawyer."

"Okay, Molly, then, Mr. Lawyer, let's start first." Rice said to Margery Brown.

"Okay then, let's talk here. Lushi and I will go to the back garden for a walk. When it's time to sign, come and call us. Lushi, I don't think you have any objections, do you? "Margaery Brown said to Lu Shi.

After hearing this, Lu Shi could only nod her head.I want to hear it, but I don't understand it at all, so don't get in the way here. "Okay, Molly, then let's go. It's good to just treat it as a flower viewing. After all, I haven't seen your garden before."

After the two left, Rice and the lawyer sat down and talked.

Lucy and Margaery Brown came to the garden and sat on the promenade.

"Okay, I can breathe a sigh of relief when I come out. Don't worry, I am a very good lawyer and I will definitely be able to help you get the most benefits. Unexpectedly, you will publish a novel so soon. Hehe, although you said you published it yourself It’s expensive, but it’s still good. By the way, the first edition seems to print [-] copies. I don’t know if it will sell well. But I believe it can, at least children like it, right?” Margery Brown laughed He said to Lu Shi.

Lu Shi nodded after listening, "I believe that those who can be very popular, I have always believed."

After waiting for another hour, the two of them had afternoon tea.Later, servants from Margery Brown's family came to look for it.

"Mrs. Bukett, Madam, the lawyer and the editor have already negotiated, and now we need to ask Mrs. Bukett to sign." Margery Brown's servant said to Lu Shi and the two of them.

After Lu Shi answered a good word, she followed Margery Brown and the two of them.

"Mrs. Bucket, Mrs. Brown, this is what I discussed with Mr. Rice just now. This is the terms of the contract that I promised just now. I have read it and there is no problem. I can sign it." The lawyer saw Lu Shi and When Margery Brown came in, she immediately stood up and handed over a stack of contract papers for Lucy to sign.

Lu Shi glanced at Margaery Brown and saw her nodding.Only then did Lushi take the contract paper, came to Shafachu, and signed her name.

"Okay, then Mrs. Bucket wishes us a happy cooperation, and also wishes your masterpiece to sell." Lai Zi also stepped forward to sign, and then extended his hand to Lu Shi.

Lu Shi thought for a while before shaking hands with Rice.

After the lawyers and Rice editors have left.Lucy turned around and screamed. "Oh, Molly, I've made it, and mine's going to be published."

Margaery Brown also smiled and said to Lu Shi: "Of course, congratulations. Although you don't know the sales volume yet, it's a good thing to be able to publish. By the way, what do you want to send your money to?" Although it is not optimistic , but I don't want to pour cold water on Lushi's enthusiasm.

"Of course it's right away. I looked at the contract just now, and it seems that after paying the money, it will be published." Lu Shi thought about her pocket, and held back in an instant.Although it is a bit sad, it is still hard to hide the excitement.

The next day, Lu Shi transferred the money to the account of Rice's publishing house, and called to confirm.That's when I let go and started writing.

While Lu Shi was writing excitedly, she suddenly found herself much quieter.Mr. Hawkley actually didn't send anyone over to harass him once.It's really strange.But it's good like this, or Karl's mistresses and everything are gone.It's just that thinking about these things is very disgusting, and I can't help thinking, I want to be with Karl after all.Don't know his past, don't know what kind of person he is?With so many mistresses, will they still appear when two people get married, or will there be a child named Carl's father?Lu Shi couldn't help putting down the Bi in her hand, and began to feel uneasy.

Lu Shi kept telling herself that this was not true, those women came to find her, but it was Mr. Hawkley's trick.Maybe Karl didn't have any of these so-called lovers at all.

Lushi spends her days in this situation of constantly comforting herself and writing novels.

Suddenly one day, Molly came to tell himself that Karl was back.

"Ma'am, Mr. Carl has returned and is at the villa. Would you like to visit him? After all, you have been separated for so long." Molly said to Lu Shi with a smile.Lai Fujie himself told himself.Also imitate Mr. Carl has already dealt with everything.

"Really? It's really great." After hearing this, Lu Shi knew that the person she had been thinking about day and night finally came back.

Immediately stood up, "Oh, Molly, look how I should dress myself. Go upstairs to the cloakroom, Molly, I need your help." Lush pulled Molly, went upstairs together, entered own bedroom.Opening the cloakroom, looking at the gorgeous clothes in this room, I really don't know which one I should choose.

"Oh, ma'am, I think you look good in anything, and I really don't know how to choose. How about just this one, it suits your skin better, and it should look beautiful on you." Molly thought for a while, This gave Lu Shi a suggestion.

Take the lavender clothes and show them to Lushi.

Lu Shi looked at this piece of clothing, and then nodded.I like it very much, I just like purple.The dress was put on with Molly's assistance.

Wear jewelry with matching purple crystals.Lu Shi really couldn't believe it was her. Her complexion was usually pale, but now she was shining white under the reflection of her clothes.Lu Shi even stared blankly at herself.I never imagined that I could dress up like this.I haven't worn this set of clothes yet. For writing, I always choose convenient and easy clothes to wear.Carl must be surprised to see himself.

"Oh, ma'am, you are really beautiful in this dress. I think Mr. Carl will love you even more when he sees you. It's almost time, otherwise let's go there together." Molly praised happily.

After hearing this compliment, Lu Shi couldn't help but raise the corners of her lips. "Okay, then let's go." Thinking about Karl, he should miss himself very much, just like he misses Karl.It turned out that I had fallen in love with Karl unknowingly, but poor myself thought I was moved by Karl.Now that I think about it, I'm really a bit stupid.

Lucy and Molly happily came to Karl's villa in a car.But the door of the villa was closed, and Lu Shi didn't care. Anyway, she came here on a whim, and she was not notified at all, so it was only natural that it was closed like this.

Molly got into the car to negotiate and opened the door smoothly.Of course, the car didn't need to be so troublesome in the past, but now Mr. Hawkley's master is here, so we must be careful.This is the explanation Lu Shi gave herself. Although she felt a little weird in her heart, she still forced herself to suppress this thought in her heart.

But Molly, who got out of the car, felt a little strange, obviously it was Lai Fujie who called him.It stands to reason that the door should have been opened long ago, but what is the meaning of closing the door like this?Forget it, since Madam didn't ask, I don't have a place to speak.At most, I will help my wife once or twice when she is in the most difficult time.

Lushi's car entered Carl's villa.There was no grand welcome ceremony for the first time, and the door of the main house was also closed.It was only then that Lu Shi felt a hint of unwanted premonition. Could it be that Carl hadn't come yet, but Mr. Hawkley lured her to come here.But it doesn't take so much trouble.

Ruth got out of the car, and Molly followed.

Just as Molly was going to knock on the door, suddenly the door of the main house opened.

"Welcome Mrs. Bucket." The one who opened the door was Lai Fujie, whom both Lushi and Molly were familiar with.

"Why did you open the door? Lai Fujie, didn't you follow Karl as a housekeeper? Why did you have to work for you? Didn't you tell Molly? Did Karl come back? Why didn't I see Karl? Is it in the bedroom , I'll go up to see him now." Lu Shi said to the silent Lai Fujie.He was ready to go upstairs to find Karl on his own.

"Well, my guests are all here. I think it's time to start my plan. Mrs. Bucket, I think you'll give up this time. It won't take two years, and now the two of you will be Impossible. Carl should have told you this himself." Mr. Nathan Hawkley's voice sounded in the living room.

Lu Shi turned pale when she heard this. Although she didn't know the reason, Lu Shi just felt that it was very dangerous, as if she was not supposed to come here.But after hearing his words, he still came in involuntarily.There will be a day to face it, so it's better to make it clear earlier, I don't believe that Karl will give up on himself in such a few days.If it is true, then it is really a big blow to myself.

"Please sit down, Mrs. Bucket, oh, you are really dressed up today, this suit really suits you. Did Carl buy this for you? Hehe, Carl has always been so generous to women, I think you should have a deep understanding, not only you, but also your daughter. Oh, by the way, I forgot to say, in your impression, your daughter is dead, and sank into the Atlantic Ocean with the Titanic .And the precious Heart of the Ocean, don’t you think so? Compared to the Heart of the Ocean, other things are only worth a little bit, so they’re not worth mentioning.” Nathan Hawkley looked at Lu Shi as if Constantly talked about, Carl's generosity to women.

Lu Shi twisted her mouth and didn't speak. If she spoke, she couldn't help but yell.I have never seen such a disgusting person.Every word speaks directly to the bottom of my heart.I'm afraid there should be blood in my heart now.

"Mr. Hawkley, what are you trying to get Lai Fujie to lead me here for? If it's just to hit me, then I don't think you need it. Didn't I tell you? Before Carl gave up, I didn't I will give up, it is limited to two years, can't you even wait for such a little time? I really don't know how you managed to make such a big business? You are so impatient." Lu Shi said to Mr. Hawkley It's really disdainful to use the third bad method.So I don't keep any morals anymore.Anyway, this person will never agree with the matter between himself and Karl until he dies.Well, why don't you say it yourself.

"You." Mr. Nathan Hawkley became angry when he heard what Lu Shi said.After I have succeeded, no one has ever talked to me like this.Even those whose families are older than him would not say these things to him face to face.Now being ridiculed by a woman like Lushi, I am really blown away.But thinking about what he found, he has successfully made Carl angry with Lushi, and Lushi won't laugh later.

Then he recovered his smile, and said to Lu Shi: "I managed such a big business, of course I have a business mind. I think Karl will inherit my property and carry it forward. You will only be on the road of his life It’s just an obstacle. I’ll let Carl tell you to let go, and then you can go wherever you want to go. I won’t entertain you here.”

Lushi looked at Nathan Hawkley suspiciously, as if he had already grasped something about himself.However, he was magnanimous and did not do anything to offend Karl, so he had nothing to be afraid of.

Nathan Hawkley didn't care about Lu Shi's ignorance, but said directly: "Aren't you here to see Carl? Well, I'll let you see enough at once. Lai Fujie, go upstairs and ask the young master to come down. Just say it's Lu Shi is here, I want to see him. He should make an end, shouldn't he?"

Lu Shi's eyes lit up when she heard that Carl really came and was upstairs.

After Lai Fujie listened to the order, he went upstairs to invite Karl.

Ruth sat there, and Molly followed.And Nathan Hawkley just stood there smoking a cigarette, ready to admire Lushi's expression.An elderly widow abandoned by her own son.I'm really looking forward to it.

Everyone in the living room was silent, and Lu Shi's heart was constantly disturbed.Waiting for Karl's appearance, telling about the grievances he has suffered during this time.

Suddenly, there was a sound from the stairs, the sound of being knocked by the sole of a leather shoe.Incomparably low and depressed, it seems to be the current mood of the owner.

Lushi raised her head and looked at Carl expectantly, but she was too excited to see Carl's gloomy eyes and haggard face.

After seeing her lover for a long time, Lu Shi stood up excitedly.

"Oh, Carl, you're always back. You know what? I'm looking forward to your return. By the way, my novel is about to be published. I want to surprise you, but I can't help it now , Just say it like this. Because I am really happy that you can come back now and share my joy." Lu Shi chattered forward and said to Carl.

In short, Carl finished walking the stairs, and Lushi had already come to the stairs.

He reached out to grab Karl's arm, but Karl stepped aside immediately.

Lu Shi caught a blank.Then he said in astonishment: "Carl, what's wrong with you, why are you treating me like this. Did you really change your mind just like what your father said?"

Carl didn't answer Lu Shi's words at all, but just walked straight to the sofa.He sat down, opposite to the sofa that Lushi sat on just now.This made it clear that she didn't want to be with Lu Shi.Also learn to speak clearly.

Lushi quickly trotted back to the sofa she had been sitting on just now.Keeping an eye on Carl.

"Carl, what's wrong with you, do you regret it?" Although Lu Shi said she didn't want to ask, she still asked in distress.

Nathan Hawkley on the side was smoking a cigar more cheerfully, looking at the relationship between Lushi and Carl.

But looking at Karl, he was still unwilling to speak harshly to Lushi, and ended the matter between the two of them.Then he hurriedly urged: "Carl, tell me quickly, I don't think we have so much time to express this past tense relationship. You should know that this Miss Mayer is waiting for you to go on a date. Mayer It's not easy for Miss to agree to your invitation. Don't miss it."

After hearing Nathan Hawkley's words, Lu Shi looked at him extremely angrily.

"You don't have to look at me like that. You did this. You lied to Carl first, and then you lied to Carl's feelings. Really, it's fucking disgusting." Nathan Huo Ke Li spat on the ground as he spoke.

When Lu Shi fell to the ground with this saliva, she felt that she was spitting on herself.It was as if he had seen Jack tell Rose to spit when he was on the boat.It's all so ridiculous if you want to laugh.Isn't it just wishful thinking of Hawkley that Karl treats him so well?You must ask yourself carefully, otherwise you will be really unwilling.

"Carl, tell yourself how I cheated your feelings. If you can say something, I will never pester you. I will stay away quickly and won't be an eyesore to you." Lu Shi Carl, who was staring at the opposite door, asked.

At this moment, Karl raised his gloomy eyes and looked at Lu Shi with a good look.

"Rose is still alive, and you know that you rescued her with your own hands. Hehe, it's ridiculous that I was deceived by your acting skills. I believed that you were crying because of Rose's death. You know Did I feel so heartbroken at that time? It turns out that you have been lying to me all this time, seeing me hurting you and caring for you is ridiculous. Isn't it?" Carl questioned Lushi.

Lu Shi might as well have heard this fact, her face was flustered, but she immediately calmed down.

Reluctantly opened the corners of his mouth and smiled: "Carl, what are you talking about? If I rescued Rose myself, how could I deceive you. Don't listen to other people's nonsense and come to slander me. How did I I thought Rose was dead. By the way, where is Rose. I want to see her."

"You don't have to lie to me, you don't have to pretend anymore. If I hadn't heard so many witnesses and testimonials. I don't think I wouldn't be like this, but I absolutely believe it. But you should know, rescued Luo It’s not enough for you to be Si and Jack alone. The two sailors in the rowing place were present at the time, so where can you argue? Lai Forge also saw the two of you sitting in the same boat. And at that time The sailor who ascended the throne also remembers it. So you don’t have to lie to me anymore. I won’t be fooled by you again.” Carl was heartbroken and said to Lu Shi bitterly.
