[Titanic] Where Your Heart Goes

Chapter 22 Let Me Meet Him Once

Compared with Miss Rose, Mrs. DeWitt reacted more strongly to Carl's angry words.When Karl walked back to the living room, Mrs. DeWitt immediately showed a pitiful expression, with tears in her eyes, and looked at Karl with a disappointed look.

Carl had to have an illusion that the woman he was engaged to was actually Mrs. DeWitt.Carl did not bring his impatience to Mrs. DeWitt. It is absolutely necessary to treat the mother and daughter with different attitudes. Their values ​​are too different. Compared with Mrs. DeWitt, a philistine who worships money, Karl still prefers the pure and kind Miss Rose - Mrs. DeWitt is actually very difficult to deal with, she has too thick skin.

After receiving Carl's gentle treatment, Mrs. DeWitt immediately felt relieved. It seemed that Carl was still very infatuated with Miss Rose, and he didn't seem to have any plans to dissolve the engagement.Mrs. DeWitt breathed a sigh of relief, she did not continue to pester Karl, which finally allowed Karl to get free space.

"Please take Rose to prepare well, I will wait for her to attend the singing together for a while." Leaving today's schedule behind, Carl left the living room with a false smile.

The male master's bedroom was empty, the sheets and bedding had already been replaced with new ones, and the suit that Jack wore the day before was also thrown in the bathroom by him and was not taken away.The windows of the room were slightly open to circulate the air, and the peculiar smell after the male excitement last night had long since disappeared, and the emptiness made the mood quiet down.

Carl stroked the snow-white sheets and laughed again. His little blond boy must have wondered what he did last night all the time. He must be very annoyed, or still very confused?So Karl wanted to drive this child away from him even more, otherwise there would be no "hickey marks" on the whole body except the neck, and he would be too easy to reveal.Not to mention, Carl needs to make the boy feel more guilty.

Just think about it, for a man who has always treated him kindly, taught him etiquette, prepared him suits, brought him into high society, and gave him a chance to get close to the goddess in his heart, it would be a great feeling to be hurt by himself. hit!The harsher Karl treats Jack now, the more he rejects him, the more it will show the "authenticity" of Karl's falsified things.

Even if we spend a short time together, Carl can know that Jack is a very good boy. His integrity and enthusiasm will definitely force Jack to "explain", "responsible" and "compensate". At that time, it will be Karl's turn to recover the cost up.No matter what Carl wanted to do, the boy would grit his teeth and cooperate.

This is Karl's ultimate goal!

Carl sat on the sofa contentedly. He took out the half-read books and continued to study. The original owner still left a lot of good things.About an hour later, Miss Rose and Mrs. DeWitt, who had changed their dresses, knocked on the door of Carl's room. They walked into the first-class lobby of the Titanic together. The tables and chairs were put aside by the waiter, and the captain led everyone Sing hymns together.

Karl deliberately stood at the outermost side of the line, his eyes were not focused on the music score in his hand at all, when the singing reached its climax, Karl caught a glimpse of a familiar figure outside the door from the corner of his eye.Jack obviously spotted Carl's trace at a glance, and the expression on his face became very complicated, but he still wanted to rush in.

The waiters pulled Jack's arm and forbade him to approach the gate for a moment. The butler Lai Fujie got up immediately after receiving Carl's eyes and went outside to perform his task.

Jack really calmed down when he saw the figure of the housekeeper Lai Fujie. He looked at Lai Fujie and waited for his explanation. The housekeeper Lai Fujie took out a few banknotes with a cold face: "Good day, Mr. Dawson, Mrs. DeWitt wants me to tell you, she I don't want to see you pestering her daughter again and handing you the money."

"I'm not looking for Rose, I just want to see Carl." Jack said anxiously, his eyes kept looking past Lai Fujie's figure to Carl who was standing in the venue frowning and seemed to be very unwell.

"Mr. Dawson, if you want to see the young master, then he asked me to tell you that he doesn't welcome you in his sight, and he feels very painful about your behavior."

"But, I just came here yesterday, just let me see him."

"Mr. Dawson, please let me remind you that you live in the third class, without the support of the young master, you shouldn't be here at all." The butler Lai Fujie said and divided the banknotes that Jack refused to accept into two and handed them to the viewer. The waiter at the door said in a cold voice, "Please send Mr. Dawson back to the place where he should appear, and promise that he will not stay here."

Jack was taken away by two powerful waiters with their arms twisted. The smile on the corner of Carl's mouth slowly emerged in the room. Mrs. DeWitt looked at Carl's expression and gave him a look of "I understand", but Carl only felt that Funny - an arrogant woman who doesn't understand anything.

Perhaps it was because Karl sold all the shares of White Star Company in his hands to Mr. Ismay without hesitation. Mr. Ismay felt embarrassed that he had taken advantage of this. In the morning, he brought Mr. Andrew to invite Karl The "family" visited the entire Titanic, and Carl happily accepted the invitation—otherwise he wouldn't know what to do.

At this time, Karl absolutely didn't want to take the initiative to take Miss Rose or Mrs. DeWitt's arm. He followed Mr. Ishmay and Mr. Andrew to the front. Andrew dutifully explained the composition of the ship: "These are the lifeboats."

"Mr. Andrew, I took the liberty to calculate, and it seems that the number is not enough." Miss Rose interrupted suddenly, and Mr. Andrew showed a "confidant" smile at once, and he nodded in agreement with Miss Rose's words.

"Yes, if the most advanced suspension arm is used, enough lifeboats can be installed on the deck, but some people say that this affects the cleanliness and vision of the Titanic. Therefore, the number of lifeboats is only enough for half of the total personnel. However, You can rest assured that the Titanic is very safe." After Mr. Andrew finished speaking, Mr. Ishmay laughed with satisfaction, he liked to hear the Titanic being praised.

"No, I agree with Rose's point of view. Maybe it's good to have more rescue cabins. It's a sense of security." Carl frowned, and then he saw Mr. Ishmay's unhappy expression, and Carl quickly added One sentence, "However, the Titanic is perfect, and I believe she must be very strong."

As Carl said, he turned his head and made a gesture of looking into the distance. He sighed secretly in his heart. There were only half of the lifeboats—according to the standard of shipwreck evacuation, women and children evacuated first.

In case of a shipwreck, how can they leave the Titanic?
