Matriarch of the Hockleys
Chapter 25
Jack dragged Ruth to the deck with difficulty.At this time, Andrea and Mrs. Bruce had already boarded the lifeboat.But Karl and Leger were stopped by Andrew.
"Please! Andrew, let me go up!" Carl whispered. "Ladies and children, and the old man." Andrew looked away from Carl.
"Sir! Are you going to let us row the boat?" Andrea looked at Carl who was stopped, and turned her head and said.
Andrew just remembered this.He hesitated for a moment, then let go of Carl's hand. "There will be six men on each lifeboat, and they will row for the ladies!" Andrew shouted as he pretended not to see Carl.
"Yes, sir." Next, several more men boarded the lifeboat.Carl finally got into the lifeboat, and he breathed a sigh of relief.After all, not many people can face death calmly, and everyone wants to survive.
"Sir!" Leger handed his coat to Carl. Carl glanced at Andrea who was only wearing a thin coat, and took off his coat.He handed Andrea his coat and put on Leger's coat.Leger was thankful again that he was still wearing a woolen sweater, it seemed that Mr. really cared about Miss Bruce.
"Don't worry, everything will be fine!" Carl comforted Andrea softly.Mrs. Bruce sat beside Andrea. She pulled the shawl on her body and looked at her daughter silently.
"Hmm!" Although Andrea was still a little worried, most of the tension in her heart had dissipated.
The lifeboat that Carl was in was also released soon. The moment the lifeboat touched the sea, the people on the boat breathed a sigh of relief, they were saved!
A flush of excitement appeared on Andrea's pale cheeks.
"We're safe." Carl said softly, holding Andrea's left hand. "Well," Andrea pushed Carl's hand away.
Carl, who was a little disappointed, became excited again when he saw Andrea's shy face.
"Let's row the boat out a bit first! There will be lifeboats coming down later, and the sea will become more crowded." Leger's words awakened the people who were immersed in joy.
Carl and several other men on the boat took turns to row the oars, and the boat quickly moved away from the Titanic. From the perspective of the Titanic, the silhouette of the boat has become faintly visible.
On the Titanic, the crew is methodically arranging the escape of the passengers.
At this time, Hudson, who had just packed his things, handed a gun to Tom. "I don't want to see that man again, you go and deal with him before you get on the lifeboat!" George's eyes showed a trace of ruthlessness.
"Yes." Although he wanted to escape more, Tom still had to do what his husband told him first.
After watching Mr. Hudson leave, Tom turned and walked to the other side while pulling the safety catch of the gun.
Along the way, Tom felt the water on the floor getting deeper, but just to be sure, he walked on. "Is anyone there? Is anyone there?"
"There seems to be someone, Ruth!" Jack held Ruth's hand and said with a smile on his face.
The water was already up to Ruth's waist. "Here, here we are!" Jack yelled.
Hearing Jack's answer, Tom clenched the gun tightly, his shoulders pressed against the wall, and walked slowly towards the corner. "How many of you are there? I can't find my way to the deck!" Tom shouted in feigned surprise.
"You're going the wrong way, there are two of us! Why don't we go to the deck together!" Jack took Ruth's hand vigorously, "There must be people on the deck, let's go quickly. Wait a while and get on the lifeboat , we can rest for a while!" Jack comforted.
"Ok!"
At this time, Tom has confirmed Jack's identity.He walked slowly around the corner, "Mr. Dawson, good evening! Miss Cabot!"
Seeing Ruth beside Jack, Tom exclaimed.In just a few seconds, Tom's face quickly calmed down.
"Why are you here!" Ruth questioned, "Who told you to come?" Ruth was a little nervous, and she felt very uncomfortable.
"It seems that the Titanic will not be able to reach the United States safely! Mr. Dawson, my husband asked me to give you a gift." As he said, Tom slowly raised his hand behind him.
At this moment, facing the black muzzle of the gun, Jack took half a step back, trying to cover Ruth.
"What do you want to do? Mr. Tom." Jack's face changed slightly.
"It's not what I want to do, Mr. Dawson, it's all because you are so ignorant!" Tom raised his eyebrows.
"Stand back." Jack whispered, "What? Mr. Tom, why didn't you go to the deck? There are not enough lifeboats on the Titanic for everyone to escape!" Jack said with a smile.
Hearing this, Tom changed his face, but soon he regained his composure. "Then you go to hell first!" Tom fired a shot at Jack, who hurriedly pushed Ruth away.
"Hey!" Jack pulled off his wet coat and flung it at Tom.
At the moment Tom dodged, Ruth handed Jack the fire ax she had been holding all along.
"It's only fair that everyone has a weapon!" Jack smiled with a naughty face.
"Really? I didn't know when an ax could be compared with a gun!" Tom looked disdainful, and after he finished speaking, he raised his hand again, intending to shoot again.
At the critical moment, Jack stepped forward and held down his hand holding the gun.Between pushing and shoving, Tom let go of his hand, and the gun fell into the water.
Looking at the gun in the water, Tom shook off Jack, cursed fiercely, turned and ran away, after all, he was now unarmed.
Jack heaved a sigh of relief, and he threw the ax aside, "Ruth, let's go!" "Okay!" Ruth hurriedly followed Jack's pace.
"Is it cold? Hold on a little longer and get on the lifeboat." Jack looked at Ruth, who was pale, and pinned her bangs hanging in front of her eyes behind her ears with some distress.Although Ruth looked very embarrassed at this time, in Jack's view, she was even more stunning at this time than when she was dressed gorgeously before.
"Don't worry!" Ruth smiled, as long as she can be with Jack, this coldness is nothing.
Tom came to the hall soon, and he looked at the iron gate, showing a malicious smile.
Jack quickly found the locked door, damn it, it must be the bastard!
"Jack, we're locked up!" Ruth finally showed a panicked expression, she didn't want to die!
"Ruth, we will be safe. Believe me, Ruth, I will find a way!" Jack comforted Ruth, but at this moment he was also very uncertain.
"Jack!" Hearing the sound, Jack hurriedly turned his head, "Phoebe!" Jack never thought that he would meet his best friend in this situation.
"Locked!" "Oh! God!" "Shit!" The third-class passengers with Fabby had already discovered the locked gate.
"It has to be opened, or we're all going to die!" Jack said seriously.
"Break it open with something!" Fabby suggested. "Guys, look for something stronger. We're going to break the door open. Find it!"
People started banging on doors to see if there was anything they could use.
"Jack! Is this sofa okay?" Fabby called back.
"Of course, let's carry it out together!" Jack walked into the room first.
Several men who were still hesitating also stepped forward one after another.
"One, two, three, one,..." Accompanied by the rhythmic sound, people lifted the sofa and slammed it against the gate, their hair was wet with sweat, but their longing for life kept them from feeling tired.
With a sound of "哐~", the gate was smashed open, and people hurriedly dropped the sofa they were carrying and ran outside one after another.
"Ruth, let's go!" Jack pulled Ruth and ran quickly, and the sea water had already entered the restaurant.
Just as they were about to pass through the hall, the ceiling of the main staircase began to crack, and the collapsed staircase left several running passengers forever on the Titanic.
There was a hint of resentment in Jack's eyes, and then he ran even harder.
He didn't want to die yet, he hadn't married Ruth yet, he hadn't had a few babies with her, and he hadn't let Ruth live a happy and easy life.He's going to live, Jack pulls Ruth over several passengers.
Soon, they finally came to the deck.However, in desperation, all the lifeboats on the Titanic were full of passengers.
A few passengers who had just run up fell to the deck in a state of exhaustion.It's over, it's over.At this moment, the Titanic was shrouded in a dead silence. The faces of the people were different, but the only thing they had in common was that there was a sense of despair in their eyes.
"Gentlemen and ladies! Don't give up, the rescue ship is coming soon. Hold on for a while, and everyone will be saved." Captain Smith broke the silence.
"What did you say? Why did the Titanic get in the water! What the fuck did you guys do!" A man with a vicious appearance lifted Captain Smith's collar, with a frenzied face, shaking and dragging Captain Smith hands.
Captain Smith was so tormented that he almost rolled his eyes, "Hey! What are you doing? Put him down!" Mr. Andrew pointed a gun at the man and asked with a serious face.
The man pushed Captain Smith away angrily, "What are you doing? Isn't the Titanic unsinkable? Why did it get in the water? Why!" The man asked loudly, he had lost his mind.
The author has something to say: the National Day is approaching, but the author's hand speed is really slow.So I plan to double update the Mid-Autumn Festival.Let's all applaud ^O^/
"Please! Andrew, let me go up!" Carl whispered. "Ladies and children, and the old man." Andrew looked away from Carl.
"Sir! Are you going to let us row the boat?" Andrea looked at Carl who was stopped, and turned her head and said.
Andrew just remembered this.He hesitated for a moment, then let go of Carl's hand. "There will be six men on each lifeboat, and they will row for the ladies!" Andrew shouted as he pretended not to see Carl.
