[Gone With the Wind] Daughter Difficult

Rhett was sitting in the office, the carefully waxed brown coffee-colored mahogany desk could not see the original appearance, and the pile of documents even blocked his whole body behind.

There were still people sending in official documents, and the layers of official documents looked precarious. In the end, Rhett had to let them put them on the coffee table not far away. The coffee table was full, and finally put them on the ground.

"Why are there so many?" Rhett looked at with a headache

"These are the files you want of the bankrupt railroads, as the number keeps increasing..."

"Stop," Rhett interrupted impatiently, "we'll see this later, deal with it urgently, and let James sell all the shares in the Reuter Railway Company."

"Immediately?"

"The sooner the better!"

Since Rhett came back from vacation, Rhett's company has been at war every day, dealing with high-intensity business that does not have any opinions.

In just one and a half hours, it was the tenth time that Rhett's secretary Vincent walked into Rhett's office, and the frequency continued to increase: "Captain, the telegram just sent from New York is signed by Thomas Edison, may I ask you Do you want to watch it now, or watch it later.”

Rhett was originally dealing with the urgent official document in his hand, but he paused when he heard the secretary's words, and then said, "Bring it here now."

Looking at the road that was almost blocked by piles on the ground, Vincent quickly jumped over and delivered the telegram to Rhett.

The content of the telegram was very brief, and the other party invited him to visit Edison's laboratory in New York, this time with Reid to determine the time.Edison wanted him there within a week, because there were other people interested in his experiments.

Reid said to Vincent who was about to leave: "You send him a telegram saying that it will only be two weeks later."

Vincent was stunned, "But didn't he say..."

"What he needs is investment. If it's not urgent, he won't give me an ultimatum. I don't know much about technology, which is not good for us," Rhett said casually, "Trust me, Squeeze If it were one more week, he would be willing to wait."

Vincent was preparing to go out when someone rushed in again, but this time, the other party didn't have any documents in his hand.

The visitor said pantingly: "Captain, someone from your family said they wanted to see you, and that it was your wife who said they must invite you back. None of our people can stop your family."

The person who came was Polk. He was a dead-headed black slave uncle. He would definitely do what Scarlett ordered.

"Mr. Butler, if you don't go back, maybe Miss Scarlett will come to see you in person." Polk's voice was so loud that the entire office could hear

"What's going on?" Rhett asked puzzledly, "What's wrong with Scarlett?"

"Didn't you let a construction team in today? She is getting angry and letting them go out, but the construction team is unwilling to leave, saying that they will wait until you come back. Miss Scarlett is very angry." Polk said very honestly , "My God, she didn't sleep well last night. It's been a long time since Old Pork saw her lose her temper. If it goes on like this, she might be very angry."

Rhett's heart tightened, "How is Scarlett?"

"Her mother Hei helped her to rest," Polk said, "but the construction team is still there, why don't you hurry back and have a look?"

In Butler's mansion, Scarlett was indeed furious.

She didn't sleep well last night, and she woke up dizzy in the morning. When she woke up, she was offended by those strangers pointing and pointing at her backyard. She didn't eat anything and felt a little nauseous.

She felt that today was unlucky, and everyone would go against her.

The leader of the construction team stood in the living room and confronted Scarlett.

The recent environment is not good. They have no work at all these days, and finally took over a renovation project. Unexpectedly, the hostess suddenly stopped them and asked them to leave, even because they just measured the location and hadn't had time to do anything. , had no intention of paying them wages at all.

Don't talk about the fish in the mouth flying away. Didn't they do it for nothing this day?

Naturally, the boss would not want to leave, but he felt that women were always making trouble for no reason, so he wanted to wait for the master to come back.

Fortunately, Butler's PR was not very far from Reid's office, and after about four or 10 minutes, Reid rushed back.

Reid first apologized to the boss, and promised to give them double today's wages, and the project he ordered would not be cancelled, which made the other party leave with satisfaction.

In the master room.

Scarlett rubbed her forehead with a headache, her face was pale, she didn't even apply her favorite pink rouge today, she looked haggard.

This is what Rhett saw when he came in.

Scarlett glanced at him, and Rhett walked up to Scarlett quickly: "Dear Scarlett, you don't look very well, do you want to go back to bed and rest?"

"Rhett, let me ask you," Scarlett said angrily, "what are they going to do? Why didn't you discuss it with me? Is it not good now?"

Rhett smiled and touched Scarlett's cheek, trying to ease the atmosphere: "Honey, don't be angry, don't you also hate the horse farm that hurt Bonnie? Let's transform it, out of sight and out of mind Woolen cloth."

Scarlett heard his gentle tone, and the anger in her heart did calm down a lot, but Rhett didn't answer her question directly, which was a bit suspicious: "So what is it going to be transformed into?"

Reid said calmly: "Didn't Bonnie say she wanted to learn swimming when she was in Europe? I took a rough look and found that there was enough space in the backyard, so I planned to renovate a swimming pool for her to learn, so that she wouldn't have to make a fuss." Crying to go to the river or lake outside to learn to swim."

"What?" The more Scarlet heard, the more something was wrong, and the fire in her heart that had not subsided instantly burst into flames, "You mean the swimming pool?"

There was indeed a swimming pool in front of the hotel they were staying in London. At that time, Bonnie went into the water to play, but she stopped her desperately, and then immediately asked Rhett to change hotels, which made Bonnie give up.

When did the father and daughter discuss it under her nose.

The point is, "Aren't you afraid that she will be injured when she falls on a horse? The water is also very dangerous. Aren't you afraid that she will have an accident too?"

The more Scarlet thought about it, the angrier she became, what the hell was going on.

Obviously very dangerous! ! !

Scarlett's brain was dizzy, a sour taste surged from her stomach, she swallowed hard, "Why didn't you discuss it with me?"

Because Rhett knew that Scarlett would never agree.

Bonnie also seemed to know that Scarlett was not willing, so she kept torturing him for a long time, and he only softened not long ago.

In fact, judging from the matter of swimming itself, he felt that there was nothing wrong with learning to swim, especially since Bonnie was half of Charleston's blood, so she knew water in her bones.

Rhett knew he was in the wrong, so he said softly: "Honey, I was wrong to hide you, but swimming is not dangerous, and I am a good player, I will teach her personally, after learning to swim, even in the water There is no need to be afraid."

"There is no sea around Atlanta. Learning to swim is useless at all. Besides, there are many people who can't swim. I have never heard of any lady who would learn to swim." Scarlett endured the sour gas in her chest. , "Didn't you always want to raise her to be a lady? And swimming is really dangerous, and I'm afraid we'll lose her again."

"Don't get excited," Rhett saw that she was really uncomfortable, "what's wrong with you, do you need me to call Dr. Meade?"

Originally, Scarlett didn't think there was anything wrong, but Rhett never gave her a satisfactory answer, and kept changing the subject.

Scarlett was dizzy at the moment, she always felt that Rhett was perfunctory her, and suddenly became angry, and said unscrupulously: "You just want her to learn to swim, right? Last time you asked her to learn to ride a horse, we You almost lost her, and now you let her learn to swim, what do you want to do?"

Hearing what she said, Rhett couldn't help but said: "I'm protecting her. She wants to learn swimming wholeheartedly. Nothing can stop her. If she learns under our protection, we can still protect her." What if she secretly goes to the lake or places where we can’t see to learn? Wouldn’t it be even more unsafe?”

The flames in her brain and the sour gas in her stomach finally confronted each other, and Scarlett couldn't resist retching.

Seeing Scarlett's uncomfortable expression, Rhett's heart tightened, and he subconsciously helped her: "How are you, are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Scarlett shook her head, supported her forehead with a handkerchief, and argued, "Why do you have to let Bonnie learn to swim? I'm really afraid of losing her..."

Looking at Scarlett's expression, Rhett suddenly felt that this scene was somewhat familiar.

In order to achieve her goal, Scarlett pretended to be dizzy several times before, wouldn't it be the same this time?

The more Rhett thought about it, the more he felt that this might really be the case. "Why don't you want her to learn? As I said, I will guarantee her safety, and I will make three chapters with her."

Although Scarlett was very uncomfortable, she still said forcefully: "Enough, Rhett, I am really dizzy and nauseous now. I firmly disagree with letting Bonnie learn to swim. Don't call me in the backyard."

Reid also became angry at this moment, and sarcastically said: "Are you pretending to be dizzy again in order to prevent Bonnie from learning to swim?"

"What did you say?" Scarlett turned pale with anger.

"I said, isn't this what you often do in Europe? It's not enough to pretend once, and then we did it again on the Danube. This kind of trick is fun once, fun the second time, and fun the third time." It's no fun."

"You—" Scarlett didn't expect Rhett to say that suddenly, she was already so angry that she was half dead, and she really fainted in the next second.

Rhett immediately regretted it.

Unexpectedly, Scarlett suddenly closed her eyes and turned backwards.

Rhett thought she was faking it at first, but seeing Scarlett became more and more wrong.

"Scarlett?" Rhett hugged her in shock and shook her, "How are you? Scarlett, don't scare me."
