Matriarch of the Hockleys
Chapter 27
Just hold on for more than an hour, and help will come, and they will all be saved.
"Aren't we really going to go there?" Mrs. Molly Brown asked hesitantly, that's life!
"Damn it, you're talking, I'll throw you into the sea to be with them!" A bearded man threatened viciously. Mrs. Molly Brown had a look of fear on her face, she hesitated, and finally chose silence.
Mrs. Rufu's face was a bit ugly, but thinking of her current situation, she did not support Mrs. Molly Brown's proposal.Ruth was always lucky, and she must have made it into the lifeboat.She kept comforting herself, and her face regained her composure.
The lifeboat slowly sailed in the opposite direction of the Titanic. Under the moonlight, each of them had similar expressions on their faces.Feeling guilty, guilty, determined...
"There's a boat coming! Hold on, everyone!" Lightoller shouted happily.
Hearing this, people's eyes became wild, and they kept shouting.
"Ruth, we are saved! Hold on!" Jack's hair was already covered with frost, and his voice was a little trembling, but his firm tone still gave Ruth the courage to persevere.
"Hurry up to the area enclosed by the lifeboats, hold on to the oars! Hurry up, don't squeeze!" A gap was opened in the triangle-shaped lifeboats, and the people in the sea struggled to swim to the circled sea area.
Soon, the lifeboat was surrounded by people.Fortunately, they were all wearing life jackets, and several lifeboats were surrounded together, so the lifeboats barely maintained their balance.
The people who finally breathed a sigh of relief began to look forward to the next rescue.They have become optimistic, and the help of the lifeboat has allowed them to accumulate a certain amount of physical strength.
Except for a few elderly gentlemen who were helped into the lifeboat, most of them were still submerged in sea water, but this was much better for them than before.
"Ruth, hold on." Jack helped Ruth hold the oars tightly. He grabbed one side of the lifeboat and kept encouraging.
"I have chocolate!" Andrea suddenly touched her pocket, and there were about five bars of chocolate in it. At this time, she was very grateful that she had the habit of carrying chocolate with her.
"Give these to them!" Andrea looked at the people with pale faces and frost on their hair and eyebrows.Only one bar of chocolate was left, and he handed the rest to Carl.Maybe these are just a drop in the bucket, but for them, it is very important.
"Well! Leger, break these into small pieces and distribute them to those who are in the sea!" Carl took the chocolate and turned to command Leger.
"Yes, sir." Leger broke the chocolate into pieces, and handed them piece by piece to those pale-faced people.When Leger handed the chocolate to a woman with her head bowed, he couldn't help being stunned.
It turned out to be Miss Cabot, Leger couldn't believe his eyes.How could she not be in the lifeboat?A trace of doubt arose in Leger's heart. He had clearly seen with his own eyes before that Madam Rufu was fighting for a seat with an old woman!Miss Cabot, as Mrs. Rufu's daughter, how could...
I was stunned for a while,
Leger pretended to be nonchalant and continued to hand out chocolates.After eating two pieces of chocolate, Ruth felt some strength. She raised her head, but was embarrassed to find that it was Carl and the others who gave them chocolates just now.
Ruth looked at Carl who was tucking in Andrea's clothes, with an expression of disbelief in her eyes.
She had never seen Karl like this before. She froze for a moment and then turned her head away.Subconsciously, Ruth didn't want Carl to see her at this time, it was so embarrassing!
"Ruth, are you okay?" Jack asked worriedly, what happened to Ruth?
"It's nothing, Jack." Ruth's smile was a little low.
Looking at the people in thick coats on the lifeboat, Jack thought he understood Ruth's thoughts.
"Excuse me, do you have any wine? The sea water is too cold, can I have a drink?" Jack patted the board, attracting the attention of the passengers.
"I have some whiskey, young man, drink less, it's a bit high." An old gentleman touched his coat and handed a small bottle of wine to Ruth.
"Thank you, old sir. Thank you very much."
Jack wrapped his right hand around the oar, he carefully unscrewed the cap, and took a sip tentatively.
He babbled and handed the bottle to Ruth's mouth. "Take a sip, Ruth. You need to warm yourself!"
"Well," Ruth couldn't help taking a big sip, it was too strong, and her brows were tightly wrinkled together.
Although her throat was a little choked, Ruth still swallowed it forcefully. While the spicy wine stimulated her throat, it also brought her a little warmth.Although insignificant, but to Ruth at this time, it was extremely precious.
Jack smiled, and handed the whiskey to the people who were also soaking in the sea.
"I will always be by your side, Ruth, trust me, you can do it. We will all survive." Jack hugged Ruth's head and said firmly.
"Well, we'll all be alive." Ruth looked at Jack, whose eyes seemed to be shining, with a smile in his eyes.Yes, she still has Jack.A confident, contented smile crept across Ruth's face.
Ruth stared at the smiling Jack, and couldn't help approaching him.Jack looked at Ruth, and finally couldn't help but kiss Ruth's delicate lips, I love you, Ruth!The two passionately kissing each other exude a solemn and holy radiance under the moonlight.
"Here," Carl peeled off the chocolate naturally, and stuffed it into Andrea's mouth.
Andrea looked hesitantly, and broke off a piece of chocolate. "Let's divide the rest, thank you."
Andrea divided the chocolate in her hand into two, and handed one of them to Mrs. Bruce. "Mommy."
Mrs. Bruce took the chocolate and glanced at Carl lightly.She didn't express anything about Carl's graciousness. In her heart, Mr. Hockley was a successful businessman, but that didn't mean she was willing to include Mr. Hockley in the list of potential son-in-laws.
On the cold sea, lonely and helpless people are praying in their hearts, and they are eagerly looking forward to the arrival of rescue.
Time passed slowly, just when some people felt extremely tired and wanted to give up.A faint sound of a ship's honking came from a distance, indicating that rescue was imminent.
"A ship is coming!" "We are here!" "Help!" People began to shout continuously, trying to convey information to the distant ship.
"No, the other party won't be able to find our location at all! We have to find a way!" Andrea clenched her hands worriedly.
"I have a whistle!" Lightoller, half of his body on the lifeboat, said suddenly.
Karl looked at Andrea happily, and he slightly bowed his head towards Legere.
Leger, who served Karl since he was a child, already has a perfect understanding with Karl.He squatted cautiously, and slowly took the whistle.
"As soon as the whistle stops, we will call for help together!" Carl said seriously, looking at Leger and nodding his head to signal him to start.
"Shhh~shh~" "We are here!" "Shhh~shh~" "Help! Help!" "Shhhh~" "We are here!" People began to shout rhythmically.The cries for help of nearly a thousand passengers in distress are quite noticeable in this vast sea.
"Captain! There seems to be a cry for help over there!" A sailor in a blue uniform said.
"Adjust the direction and head over there!" The captain of the Frankfurt ordered to speed up.
Soon, the passengers of the Titanic saw the front of the Frankfurt.It doesn't have a luxurious appearance, especially compared to the Titanic they took before, it looks like a humble dwarf.
But it was this ordinary passenger ship that saved the lives of nearly a thousand passengers.The Frankfurt really couldn't accommodate all the people, so they had to tie a dozen lifeboats to the stern, and hundreds of passengers were forced to curl up on the lifeboats.Fortunately, the Frankfurt provided them with blankets and spirits. Just wait a few more hours and the sun will rise.
Most of the rest of the people were lying on the deck or in the corridor, with some clothes on casually.Only some first-class passengers with some money on their backs can share a room with several people.
"Well," Carl handed the quilt to Andrea, "Mrs. Bruce, you can rest in the bedroom, I can just sleep on the sofa. Don't worry, I will help you guard it. Arrive America, I will knock on the door and call you." Carl smiled gentlemanly.
"Thank you so much, Mr. Hockley." Mrs. Bruce's smile didn't go deep into her eyes.
Carl noticed Mrs. Bruce's polite, rusty manner, but he didn't care.
The future is long, and Karl believes that Mrs. Bruce will see his sincerity sooner or later.
Carl watched Andrea close the bedroom door with a deep smile in his eyes.
"Andrea, take off your wet clothes to dry first," Mrs. Bruce began to make the bed after speaking.
Soon, Andrea lay on the bed. "Andrea," "What's the matter, Mom?" Andrea asked suspiciously.
"It's nothing! Go to sleep first!" Mrs. Bruce rubbed her head.As soon as her head touched the pillow, Andrea felt sleepy, and soon she fell asleep.
In the living room, Karl lay on the sofa and slowly fell asleep.
The moon quietly flashed behind the dark clouds, and on the dim moonlight sea, the Frankfurt slowly sailed to the distance, dragging a dozen lifeboats behind the stern.In the cold, the passengers wrapped in blankets still had smiles on their faces.
"Aren't we really going to go there?" Mrs. Molly Brown asked hesitantly, that's life!
"Damn it, you're talking, I'll throw you into the sea to be with them!" A bearded man threatened viciously. Mrs. Molly Brown had a look of fear on her face, she hesitated, and finally chose silence.
