Matriarch of the Hockleys

Another sunny morning!People crowded to the bow one after another, and the Statue of Liberty was already vaguely presented in front of their eyes.

"America!" "Look, America!" "We're in America!" The crowd shouted deafeningly.

After experiencing the thrilling experience last night, they felt very lucky at this time.

"Jack," Ruth turned her head to look at Jack, she happily grabbed Jack's hand and shouted excitedly.

"Yeah, we're in America, hooray!" Jack picked up Ruth and turned her around a few times.

"Ah! Jack," Ruth screamed, and couldn't help but punch Jack with her pink fist.

"We are about to start a new life!" Jack looked at Ruth affectionately, with a smile in his words.

"Woo~ woo woo woo~ woo woo~" After several vibrations, the Frankfurt finally docked at the pier.

"Queue up, line up quickly! We want to register the information of the survivors!" The uniformed staff stood at the disembarkation place holding a notebook.People began to register and disembark in an orderly manner.

"Mrs. Bruce, Miss Bruce," "Knock button~" Carl knocked on the door. "The boat is docked, I will wait for you outside the door!"

"Andrea, wake up, we are here, Andrea." Mrs. Bruce shook Andrea, who was still sleeping, "Mom, um~" Andrea rubbed her eyes, she felt herself powerless.

"Hurry up and pack up, we're here." Mrs. Bruce turned her head and asked while putting on her shoes.

"Okay, Mommy!"

"Jack!" At this time, Ruth and the others had already arrived in front of the staff, and she looked at Jack with some embarrassment. "Don't be afraid, I'm right by your side." Jack put his arm around Ruth's shoulder, comforting in a low voice.

"I'm Ruth Dawson, and this is my husband, Jack Dawson." Ruth clenched her hands nervously.

"Okay, there is an insurance company on the pier to issue compensation, just report your name to them, and you can get it." The staff member repeated, and signaled for them to leave.Jack and Ruth exchanged glances, and hurried off the boat.

"Okay, let's go!" Andrea held Mrs. Bruce's arm and looked at Carl with a smile.

"Of course, ladies first!" Carl stood on Andrea's left in a gentlemanly manner, separating her from the crowd.

"Ruth, wait here for a while, I'll go get the compensation!" Jack told Ruth, and squeezed into the crowd.

Ruth watched Jack disappear into the crowd, and began to wait anxiously.Although Ruth was a little nervous, her heart was full of beautiful expectations for a new life.

Soon, Jack squeezed out with a small purse, "Ruth, let's find a hotel to rest for a while!" "Yes."

Mr. Eden Bruce stood anxiously on the pier. Ever since he received the news yesterday, he has been in fear.If something happened to his mother and sister, he would never forgive himself for the rest of his life.

"Andrea!" Eden stared at the figure not far away. Although he hadn't been home for a long time, he still spotted his sister in the crowd at a glance.

"Second brother!?" Andrea followed the voice and shook Mrs. Bruce's sleeve in surprise. "Mommy, it's the second brother!"

"Eden!" Mrs. Bruce looked at her second son with an excited expression.

"Mom," Eden stepped forward excitedly, and hugged Mrs. Bruce, "Second Brother," Andrea stood beside Eden in the same excited manner.

"Are you all right?" Eden looked at Andrea and Mrs. Bruce. "It's just a little tired." Mrs. Bruce smiled lightly, "I just got a little scared." "It's a blessing!" Eden said with relief, and the stone that had been hanging in his heart was also let go.

"This is?" Eden, who had just noticed Karl's master and servant, said apologetically.He was too happy to be so rude!

"This is Mr. Carl Hockley, and next to him is his butler, Leger." Andrea suddenly answered.

Eden squinted his eyes when he heard the words, and looked at Carl carefully.Carl Hockley?Could it be the only son of the Iron King?He looks pretty good, but he's too old.Eden curled his lips dissatisfied.

"This is my second brother, Eden Bruce." Andrea was keenly aware of her second brother's dissatisfaction with Carl, so she hurriedly introduced.

"Thank you very much Mr. Hockley for taking care of you during this time. But I still have something to do, so I can't see you off. The person who wants to pick you up should have arrived soon! Let's go first, and you are welcome to visit our house when you are free." Yi Deng showed a reserved smile and said politely.

"Of course, I look forward to seeing you next time." Carl nodded and watched Andrea leave.

"Sir, our family's car is here." Leger suddenly interrupted Carl's trance.

"Let's go!"

The car left the dock quickly, and Carl sat in the back seat and straightened his tie. "Colin, is master at home today?"

"Yes, master. As soon as the news of the Titanic's death came out in the early morning, the master sent people around to inquire, and now he is still waiting for you at home!" Colin replied respectfully while driving steadily.

"Well, I'll take a rest first, and call me when I arrive." Carl leaned back in the chair, closed his eyes and rested. "Yes." Leger, who was sitting in the passenger seat, replied softly.

Two and a half hours later, the car drove to a villa in Philadelphia.A man with gray hair ran into the villa excitedly. "Master, the young master is back."

"You're back!?" Old Hockley stood up from his chair excitedly.He grabbed the butler's hand and kept asking, "You're back, really? Are you hurt?"

Charlie Hockley, a steel tycoon from Pittsburgh, and a wealthy steel magnate from Philadelphia.

Since yesterday, when the sad news of the Titanic came, he has locked himself in the study, not allowing anyone to approach.

The old Mr. Hockley, who was still full of energy before, was full of fatigue, and exuded a sense of decadence from the inside out.

"Yes, the young master has already arrived downstairs." Butler Clyde, who had been serving the old Mr. Hockley, said respectfully as he supported the old Hockley.

"Yes, go down." Old Hockley straightened his sleeves and walked downstairs quickly.

"Carl." Old Mr. Hockley said with a dignified expression, but his trembling voice revealed his truest emotions.

"Father!" Carl could hardly maintain the expression on his face.When the Titanic died, Carl didn't panic too much.But now looking at his elderly father, Carl suddenly felt flustered.

"It's good that you're back, you can go wash up first! Clyde, go tell the kitchen to prepare a richer breakfast!" Clyde hurried towards the kitchen.

"Father, I'll go up first!" "Well, come down for breakfast later, I'll wait for you below." "I see."

Seeing Carl rushing upstairs, old Hockley touched his beer belly, and finally felt a sense of reality.

Old Hockley sat in the sunny dining room, a little drowsy, accompanied by slight snoring.

"Carl?" Old Hockley pressed his temple and found that Carl had already sat opposite to him.

"Clyde, let the maid serve!" Old Hockley turned his head and ordered. "Yes, sir." Soon, breakfast was served.

"Carl, come and have some oysters, your favorite!" Old Hockley's words surprised Carl.He didn't expect that his dignified father would notice his preference.For a long time, old Hockley has been very strict with Karl, and he is a strict father.

"Yes, Father." Carl hid the shock in his eyes.

"By the way, what about the mother and daughter you mentioned earlier? They," the old Mr. Hockley still asked after hesitating.Although he didn't like the Cabot family's mother and daughter, he had no formal contact with them.What he knew about Cabot's mother and daughter came from the written description of the private detective.Perhaps, she also has some advantages, otherwise, how could his son pursue that Miss Cabot so persistently.

"They?" Thinking of the previous misunderstanding with Andrea, Carl hurriedly explained that he didn't want to cause any unnecessary misunderstandings.

"That Mrs. Rufu has found a more satisfactory man for Miss Cabot. However, since the accident happened last night, I haven't seen them again." Leger standing aside, his eyelids twitched .He did not tell Mr. that Miss Cabot had passed them by.

"Oh!?" Old Mr. Hockley raised his eyebrows. At this moment, his impression of the mother and daughter was even worse.To be picky about his son?Old Mr. Hockley narrowed his eyes slightly, revealing shrewd eyes.

"By the way, father, what do you think of Earl Bruce? He is the father of Mr. Eden Bruce." Karl knew that his father definitely remembered this person, after all, this is also a good contact.

"That Earl Adrian Bruce? His grandmother seems to be of royal blood," Old Hockley touched the beard on his chin. "His family has no friendship with our family, but if they are in the United States, their family members still have to Care about our family. Why do you want to ask this?" Old Hockley asked suspiciously, although Karl usually behaved like a shrewd and capable businessman.But it was not long after he escaped from danger, why did he suddenly bring up this question?

"I met Miss Bruce, she looks very good." Carl showed a gentle smile, "I think I have fallen in love with her, father. She will be my wife for the rest of my life!"

"Carl, although their family's power in the United States is far inferior to ours," Old Hockley said. "But their daughter is not easy to provoke. Before you make up your mind, don't make any moves!"

The author has something to say: that’s all about Jack and Ruth here.Because after Ruth eloped, there was almost no intersection with Carl and Andrea.

But little angels, don't worry, I will write about Jack and Ruth in the extra episode!And although there were some ups and downs after Ruth, it was also a happy ending.

Thank you for your long-term support for me!Love you guys *^_^*
