Jack's illness was meant to be used to punish Carl.Carl had just explained to Jack why he was so cold-blooded and ruthless, and Jack was also torturing his conscience at the same time, they met Miss Rose on the deck-her mother who kept nagging stood beside Miss Rose.

Mrs. DeWitt really disgusted Miss Rose, but when the shipwreck just happened and his mother and daughter lost their shelter at the same time, Karl couldn't conclude that Miss Rose could retain her wisdom and reason.Carl led Jack, who was still in a daze, to turn in one direction and walk towards the bow. A new day always makes people have more expectations, whether it is the bright sunshine or the dolphins jumping with the boat.

"They are so comfortable." Carl leaned on the railing and looked down. The blue ocean had returned to its former tranquility, and the people who experienced the shipwreck should have forgotten the panic of the previous few days.

"There's another one there, it jumped, they jumped!" Jack's mood really improved a lot, and the things full of vitality are the most touching. Carl saw that Jack was happy like a child at this time, but his heart was slow. cast a shadow.

Jack is not suitable for the upper class. All his vitality and charm lie in the fact that Jack himself is like an antelope running on the prairie. The beauty of wildness and simplicity, and the corrupt and gloomy upper class life can only make Jack slowly return to mediocrity. Definitely not Carl's purpose.

"Jack, I have a ranch in the west, do you want to stop by when I'm recuperating?" Carl focused his gaze on Jack's face.

Jack looked back at Carl, and he showed a look of realization: "You want to raise me in the manor in the west?"

"Not exactly." Carl said, turning his gaze back to the group of dolphins jumping with the cruise ship, and he explained his decision in detail: "I noticed at the dinner party that you are not used to high society, Even if you have learned the basic social etiquette, you can’t ignore the hurtful words. But it’s different in the manor in the west, it will be your world, you can create freely, I don’t want to kill your nature.”

"Carl, I'm a man, and I think I've emphasized that. Being raised in captivity is not for me. If you keep me in a manor, I'd rather go to the docks as a porter, even if the bread in exchange is as hard as What does it matter if it's like a rock? At least I survived on my own. No, this is not some boring self-esteem, I just hope that I don't lose myself in any period of time." Jack said and laughed, "God, I really can't imagine spending your property every day like a mistress, living in a manor waiting for you to appear, it's terrible."

"Okay, be obedient, and I will arrange for you to go to school. It's not too late. I think it will be a few years... By the way, Jack, how old are you this year?" Know very little.

Jack was stunned by this question, and he laughed out loud, "I'm 23 years old, what about you, Karl?"

"I'm 30 years old, well, five years, I'll give you five years Jack. During these five years, you have to go to school to find your future direction and life goals, whether you want to study art or other Anything. I hope that after five years you can tell me that what you look forward to is no longer as an individual, but to manage your life with me." Carl leaned against the railing, his voice was not loud, but But Jack felt that every word Karl said hit his heart, and his whole body ached.

"Because I don't want to be raised by you, so you want to send me away, far away?" Jack kept watching the dolphins, but he lost interest in these animals in his heart.

"I respect you, Jack. I hope that five years from now you will use your brain to make money instead of using your strength. You are strong now, but how long can you have strength? Since you are not willing to accept my financial help, How about an agreement to earn me twice the money you spend five years from now?" Carl proposed with a smile.

Jack also turned around and leaned against the railing. After a pause, he said, "Why do I feel that I lost instead?"

"Of course," Carl said without any guilt, "you won't see a man who treats you as well as I do within five years, and after five years you will have to pay money for the reckless decisions you made when you were young. Jack who never loses money."

"Trickster."

"Thank you, this is a compliment to me." After Carl finished speaking, the two laughed together.

"Hey, boys, why are you all blowing the cold wind here?" Mrs. Brown appeared in the bow of the boat with a big smile in her thick fur coat. Carl and Jack both laughed. This fat lady has always been able to get them goodwill.

"It's an honor, Molly. I thought we'd be neighbors soon." Carl made a gesture of clinking glasses with empty hands, and Mrs. Brown laughed and gestured in the same way.

"That's really great. I always thought that people of noble birth like you don't like living in the country." Mrs. Brown laughed loudly as she said, "Are you moving here for a long time?"

"No, I live in the manor for a period of time every year. In fact, the British still like country life very much. Country life is satisfying and pleasant. We can discard the indifference and selfishness in the city at will. I haven't relaxed for a long time It's over." Carl said with a sigh of relief, and he took Mrs. Brown's palm and pressed a light kiss, "I hope Mrs. Brown can help me give me some pointers on the long-lost country life."

"Carl, you are so kind. If you like country life, why not come and stay at my villa in the mine. I have raised a few pure English horses. They are really beautiful." Mrs. Brown said proudly, and Carl agreed. Nodding his head, raising a horse is also a job that eats money, no matter if it is bought, it will be over, the better the horse, the harder it is to raise.

"No wonder you play polo so well." Carl praised, and Mrs. Brown laughed happily again, and she finally turned the topic to Jack.

"Son, what about you? You look much better than yesterday, and your face is much ruddy. I really want to thank God. Mr. Strauss has been diagnosed with pneumonia, and his wife looks very sad." Brown said Feeling sad, she quickly cleared up her mood and smiled again to invite Jack: "Son, you and Carl seem to have a good relationship. It's really fortunate that you didn't become enemies because of Miss Buckett."

"No, I have always admired Mr. Dawson very much. Miss Bucket's matter will not affect my appreciation for Mr. Dawson." Carl quickly expressed his attitude.

"Your name is Jack, right? Come over to my house with Carl and I promise you will be amazed by the natural surroundings of the Midwest."

Facing Mrs. Brown's kind invitation, Jack readily accepted the kindness: "Okay, Mrs. Brown, I will go there."

"Then I'm leaving first, and I'm going to see Mr. Strauss and his wife. You guys had a good time. By the way, there is a banquet tonight, so you must remember to attend it." Mrs. Brown laughed after finishing speaking. and left.

Jack looked at Carl and suddenly felt blessed: "You won't be interested in me from the beginning."

Carl looked at the boy's expression and smiled without saying a word.
