Matriarch of the Hockleys

"Tomorrow is our last night on the Titanic. There will be a grand farewell ball in the dining room. I hope to see you all appearing in front of me together." Madam Rufu said incredulously.

Ruth's mouth moved, but in the end she didn't refuse, "Okay, I will, Mom." Although she was very reluctant in her heart, Ruth still agreed to Mrs. Ruth's request.

"Then, good night. Ruth, have a good rest!" Mrs. Ruth gave Ruth a warning look, and went back to her room to rest.

Ruth, who was a little confused, sat on the bed and hugged her legs. Many images appeared in her mind, such as the sweetness of getting along with Jack, George's arrogant and hypocritical face, the vanity and meanness of her mother, the lewd eyes of the debt collector, the loving and loving eyes of her father. smile...

Ruth didn't want to face reality.Thinking of Jack's loving words, Ruth's heart began to shake.Why did she bow her knees in order to marry a rich man-in-law according to what her mother said, why did she become the kind of person she used to despise!Ruth begins to consider the possibility of breaking up with George and marrying Jack.

However, after a long time, she couldn't find a way.oh!God, why do you torture us so cruelly.Is her love with Jack destined to have no happy ending like Romeo and Juliet?Ruth's face was full of sadness.

Romeo and Juliet!A crazy idea suddenly appeared in Ruth's mind.She quickly climbed out of bed and took out a money bag from the leather case.She opened the purse, counted the gold coins inside, and put it in her bosom contentedly.It was a 13th birthday present from her father, and there were thirteen ancient gold coins in it. Although they were not very precious, these thirteen coins could be exchanged for enough money for her simple life for several years.Ruth has a little confidence in her heart, and she still has some jewelry that can be exchanged for money.At least for a long time after they eloped with Jack, they didn't have to worry about life problems. After avoiding the news of elopement, they could find a job to support themselves.

As for her mother, Ruth had a look of guilt on her face, but it was quickly replaced by a look of determination.After the family manor and farm are sold, not only can the debt be paid off, but also a considerable amount of money will be left.There are probably one or two smaller properties in her mother's hands. The annual rent plus that money is enough for her to live a prosperous life.Although it may not be as luxurious as it is now, it is much better than those of the middle class.Ruth bit her lip and made up her mind.

She doesn't want to live like this anymore, as long as Jack is willing, she and he will slip away while getting off the boat.Ruth's eyes shone with determination.

"Bitch!" George couldn't control his anger. He couldn't imagine that Ruth, who looked arrogant, would have sex in front of a man, and let that poor painter paint a nude painting for herself!

Before, George could comfort himself, but Ruth was just a little restless.Now, in George's heart, Ruth is nothing but a ruthless cunt.

Although George covets the title of the Cabot family, he understands that if he really marries Ruth, Ruth will bring him countless cuckolds and corrupt, leftovers. Little fame.

This is clearly a loss-making business. Even if Hudson wants to marry the noble lady again, he will not marry Ruth.What's more, if this kind of woman marries back home, I'm afraid it will give his two younger brothers a short board to criticize him.After all, marrying a restless woman like her will only bring shame to the family.

Tom stood beside George with his head down quietly, and he could feel the anger emanating from his husband.That Miss Cabot is asking for death!

"By the way, did you get the things?" George finally asked, and Tom was sincerely relieved.

"Here." Tom took the brooch from his inside pocket.Ruth Cabot, hum!Although he no longer intends to marry her, his hospitality to her these past few days was not in vain.Apart from that, she's a rare beauty, isn't she?George looked at the drawing paper in his hand, and his eyes became dark for a moment.

"Here, put it on the man with this brooch. Tomorrow, the crew will help me find it." George took out a cufflink with sapphire from the drawer. "Tomorrow, it must be found from that man, remember?" George emphasized again.

"Yes, don't worry, sir." Tom took the cufflinks and saluted respectfully.

On the calm sea, the Titanic was constantly moving forward, and no one noticed the hideousness under the calm.

Carl anxiously walked back and forth at the door of the viewing room, why hasn't he come yet, the movie has been played for more than half.

Leger hurried to Karl's side, and he shook his head with a serious face.Carl's expression became puzzled, not in the restaurant?Where will she be then?Carl frowned tightly.

"Sir?" Leger looked at Carl with a serious expression.Mr. was let go of pigeons! ?This is really the first time!

"It's okay, let's go back." Presumably she won't come either.On the way back, Carl wondered why Andrea missed his appointment.She is not a rude lady, even if she has something to do, she can't come.She should also specially send someone to explain it. Could it be that I displeased her somewhere?

Until he returned to the room, Carl didn't think of any reason.Simply, he didn't get too entangled, "Le Jie, invite Miss Bruce to the restaurant for breakfast at eight o'clock tomorrow morning. By the way, remember to prepare a bouquet of flowers for her in advance." It seems that I should ask in person tomorrow.

"Yes, sir." Leger said respectfully.

Mrs. Bruce looked at her daughter who was a little depressed, feeling a little worried. "Andrea, what's the matter with you tonight?"

"I'm a little uncomfortable, Mom." Andrea frowned and said with an ugly expression.

"Lie down for a while, I'll call you a doctor." Mrs. Bruce got up and said hastily. "No need, Mom. I'll just sleep for a while. It's late, go to bed first!" Andrea wanted to stay alone for a while.She politely declined Mrs. Bruce's proposal.

"Are you sure? Andrea." Mrs. Bruce asked worriedly.

"Don't worry! Mom, how can I not understand my own body? I want to sleep, Mom." Andrea's tone was exhausted.

"Then I'll go back first. I remember something and then Lisa knocked on the door. My room is next to yours." Mrs. Bruce couldn't convince her stubborn daughter, and she emphasized again worriedly.

"Okay, Mom." After watching Mrs. Bruce leave the room, Andrea's face suddenly turned red.You actually want to tease my feelings, Carl Hockley, I won't let you go.Andrea was full of anger.

Third class

Tom stood vigilantly around the corner, staring seriously at one of the doors.Suddenly, with a "creak~", a short and fat man came out of the room.He looked around, then ran to where Tom was.

"Mr. Tom! It's done." The man rubbed his hands uncomfortably.

"Here's your payment." Tom handed the dollar to the man.

"Thank you, sir!" The man couldn't wait to pull the banknotes, 20 dollars, he was really lucky!Thank God!

"You have to make sure he wears those pants tomorrow. I'll give you another $10 if you do it right." Tom was smiling, with a look of disgust hidden in his calm eyes.

"Don't worry, sir. It's just, where can I find you then?" the man said greedily.

"I will contact you again at that time." Tom suppressed the dissatisfaction in his heart, and the inferior people were really greedy.

"Okay, sir. Don't worry, I'll keep an eye on him." That Jack was really unlucky enough to offend the rich lord.However, if he hadn't offended someone, he wouldn't have made a small fortune, haha!

Tom lifted his chin to signal him to leave.The man nodded and bowed for a while, then returned to the room, what an air! ?It's just that the dogs raised by those gentlemen really think of themselves as something.When I make a fortune in the United States, hum!The man murmured angrily in his heart, but his hands tightly squeezed the banknotes in his clothes.

Tom watched the door close gently and left.

In the room, Jack, who was soundly asleep, was still replaying his tryst with the beautiful woman in his dream.He didn't realize that a premeditated frame-up had been launched against him.

The Titanic sailed smoothly on the sea, and the gray sky was full of stars.

Leger came to Andrea's door again with a bouquet of flowers. "Knock-knock~knock-knock~"

"Leger?" Lisa asked suspiciously. "My husband sent me to invite Miss Bruce to have breakfast. This is for Miss Bruce." Leger handed the flowers to Lisa.

"Thank you, just wait a moment, I'll ask Miss." Lisa smiled and closed the door slightly.

She walked quickly into the room, "Miss, these are flowers sent by Mr. Hockley. He invited you to have breakfast, and his valet is waiting for your reply at the door."

Andrea didn't take the flowers from Lisa, "give it back and tell Mr. Hockley. I don't want anything to do with a gentleman who is about to be engaged, even if he doesn't care what others say, but my reputation is terrible." Don't allow others to defile you. Also, I hate liars." Andrea lowered her eyes and said calmly.

"Yes, miss." Lisa exited the room.

"Sorry, my lady doesn't want to accept this bouquet, and I don't want to go to the appointment. By the way, my lady would like you to bring a few words to Mr. Hockley. She doesn't want to-"

"Did she not take it?" Carl looked at the flowers in Leger's hand with a bad expression.

"Yes, sir. Miss Bruce asked me to bring you a few words." Leger couldn't bear to look at his husband, oh! He said that the mother and daughter were not very good, and the husband had clearly separated them The boundary line, but this still caused the lady to misunderstand.well!

"What did she say?" Carl asked suspiciously.

"Sir, are you outside?" Leger hinted that the gentleman is outside, and there are quite a lot of people, so it is not suitable to say.

"Go back first!"
