Chapter 225 Titanic
He looked around, there were only half of the people on the boat left, and the other half had sunk to the bottom of the sea.Snow-white frost had begun to form on the face of the floating corpse.
The scene was horrific.
Jiang Chen didn't fight to board other boats.Because this world is not important to him.He lives only because he doesn't want to die.And what he did before, to Jiang Chen, it wasn't that they were worth saving, it was just that he saved his own life.
The lifeboat of the Carpathia hurriedly rowed over, trying to take back the life from the god of death as fast as possible.
This is the real time, one life per second.
When Jiang Chen was taken aboard, he also felt that he was a little numb.
The crew patted his face in a panic and said in panic, "Sir? Sir!"
Jiang Chen was a little helpless, and turned his head to avoid it, "Alive."
"God bless! God bless! Amen!"
After Jiang Chen listened, there was no wavering in his heart.He didn't feel that the so-called God took care of him at all.If he had cared for his people, he wouldn't have put an iceberg on the Titanic's way home.
When rendezvousing with the lifeboat of the Titanic, there was a loud voice, "Why don't you let us board Carpathia!"
"I want a stove! Green tea! I can pay tens of thousands, 10,000+ dollars! Just don't let me stay in this crowded old and capsized boat! God!"
Mrs. Morley couldn't help scolding, "Enough! Stop showing off your aristocratic pomp! Now is not the time for you to drink tea and chat!"
"Ah! You fat vulgar woman, how dare you yell at me! Do you know who I am!"
Mrs. Morley had a cold face, "Don't think you are so noble! Mr. Guggenheim is in the sea and you are on the boat. If you want to talk about nobility, you should go down first to make room for those who truly cherish life!"
The lady made an unbelievable expression and shouted in surprise, "Oh! My God! What evil nonsense are you talking about!"
The voice was somewhat familiar, Jiang Chen sat up while leaning on the side of the boat.Seeing his pale face under the light of the flashlight, the yelling woman fell silent for a moment, shrinking back into the corner timidly.
Because before the Titanic sank, on the lifeboat that was about to be lowered, Jiang Chen shot her.She had no doubt that if she continued to show off in front of him, she would be thrown overboard.
Mrs. Morley was relieved to see him.Finally met a living acquaintance.
She talked about God for a while, and couldn't help asking about Jiang Chen's situation. "How are you feeling, Hawke?"
Jiang Chen only replied, "It's pretty safe. Thank you for your concern."
Early morning.
The surface of the sea was dyed red, like bright red blood.
The Carpathia took most of them.After counting, the Titanic has a total of 200 people, but now there are only 900 people and less than [-] people left.
Most of those missing and dead were crew members of the Titanic.
After a night of sea-soaked clothes sticking to his body, it was extremely uncomfortable, but Murdoch Weil didn't feel it at all.
He leaned against the side of the ship, staring numbly at the red sun rising in the distance.
Captain Smith was not rescued.He is willing, with his merits and demerits, and the unsinkable Titanic, to sink in the deep sea of the Atlantic Ocean.
Thinking of the passenger who died in his hands, he was a tall man, but he covered his face and cried bitterly.
He killed people.an innocent person.Those were originally the passengers of the Titanic, and it was they, the entire crew of the Titanic, who had the responsibility to protect the passengers who brought them to America.But he didn't die in the ocean, nor was he killed by the ship's boiler. He died by his hands, by the hands of the crew who were supposed to protect him.
Of the 200 people, only 800 are alive.No matter how hard they try, there are still 400 people who will sleep forever in this icy ocean.
It claims to be unsinkable, but it sank during its maiden voyage.
How ridiculous!How ridiculous!
Murdoch wiped his tears, reached for the gun in his uniform pocket, took it out slowly, put it on top of his head, pulled the trigger, and shot himself.After a soft sound, he opened his eyes and opened the barrel of the gun. The bullets were exhausted last night when he threatened the crowd to maintain order.
The gun slammed on the deck.
He buried his head and stopped talking.Several other lieutenants from the Titanic came over and searched to see him, none of them felt sad, and they all sighed, "First officer, we have tried our best."
……
This is undoubtedly the tragedy of the century.
tragedy of the century.
If they knew that there were originally 200 people on this ship, only 800 of them could survive, what would they think about the [-] people who survived now.
Before the Carpathia arrived at the port of New York, the pier was already surrounded by reporters from various newspapers who heard the news.Countless people came to look for their relatives and friends among the 800 surviving people.
Old Hawkli was among them.
Fortunately, when he saw the people who got off the deck safely, the old fox who had been in the Eternal Mall for many years couldn't help but burst into tears at this moment.
He hardly cared about the so-called etiquette and demeanor, and staggered over to hug the only son.I received news the day before yesterday that the Titanic hit an iceberg, and the Carpathia arrived this afternoon.
Jiang Chen was silent for a long time before he patted him on the back comfortingly.
comfort?What's the use?His real son, after all, was gone.
This is the original owner's father.Actual master of Pittsburgh's Hawkley Steel Company.
The Hawkli family is an upstart in the industrial age who has only made a fortune for decades, unlike the old nobles who have been passed down for many years, so Hawkley has the heart to marry the declining nobles who are struggling to live.
In this era, there were two ways to gain noble status.One is to gain the appreciation of the royal family and make great contributions to the kingdom, and the other is to possess unparalleled wealth, which is enough to attract the declining old nobles to marry him.
Even so, it is not necessary.Because Hawkli can be regarded as a nobleman with a title anyway, not a commoner at all.If Hawkely was really a simple nouveau riche, the over-the-top Mrs. Bukat would not be so positive about Rose and Carl's marriage.She must have a superior attitude that marrying Rose is the blessing of the other party for several lifetimes.
Little Hawkli himself is very talented in business, and he is skilled in all aspects. It is foreseeable that this steel company will become even bigger in his hands.
He only needs to ensure that his wife will not hold back the Hawkli family. On this basis, if the other party has the status of an old aristocrat, that will be the icing on the cake.
Old Hawkli and old Bukat had some friendship in the past. It happened that when Karl arrived in England, he fell in love with the young lady of the Bukat family. As a father, old Hawkli just felt that he was going with the flow.
He's a businessman and can see it's a win-win.
"Carl, where's your fiancée?" After all, it's a settled marriage, and now he only sees Carl but not Rose, Old Hawkli asked suspiciously.
Jiang Chen: "Our engagement has been annulled."
"..."
"What happened?"
"I'm sorry. Rose doesn't like me very much, and I don't like her too much. So it's decided to call off the marriage."
"You don't like her?" Before you went back to America, you sent a telegram that Rose was a beauty, stubborn and cute, a girl with a lot of personality, not at all like other people's dull rag doll ladies!I can't wait to use all the words of praise on Miss Bukat.
Why did he suddenly change his style of painting?
"I haven't seen her since the shipwreck."
Old Hawkley obviously misunderstood this sentence as Rose's death, and said regretfully, "Poor girl." He thought for a while, "I know you like Rose very much, and I'm sorry about this. Carl, are you The heir of the company, I hope you will get out of the pain as soon as possible." Then resolve your lifelong affairs.
It is also impossible for him to look at his son, indulge in Rose and never marry for life.From a father's point of view, he hopes that this son has not paid too much.He didn't want to see Carl mourning for a dead girl.
Of course, when he heard that Rose had betrayed Carl, Old Hawke's face turned blue.
They both posted five hundred wedding posts on the Titanic.Not to mention that around Pittsburgh, anyone with some status knows about Carl and Rose's marriage.This time, the mother and daughter of Bukat came to the United States from the United Kingdom. They originally planned to hold a wedding for the two of them as soon as Rose arrived.
did not expect.
did not expect……
This strengthened his determination to keep his eyes open and find a good girl for Karl to start a family.
It's just that he never thought that Ruth Bukat could look for him with a low face.She wanted to find Carl, but after the incident with the Titanic, Old Hawke asked him to go out to relax.At dusk, Blatt came to ask Hawke for help.
At that time, Old Hawkli just sneered, unceremoniously choosing to drive away people against his gentlemanly demeanor.What should he say?How could she have the face to come to her door after her daughter gave Karl such a great humiliation?
Later, I heard that this lady with high eyes could not give up her aristocratic face, and started working as a female worker in order to make ends meet.
Even as a working girl she wore her tall feathered hat, ornate jewels, and velvet coat of dark green.
Old Hawkli felt that he simply didn't understand women's thoughts.If it were him, he would immediately buy out all his property and reinvest in it...
If Mrs. Bukat had such courage and foresight, she would not be depressed all day long because of the half of Hawkley's property lost by Rose's escaping marriage.
Murdoch was sued by Brando before he settled down.The reason was that the first mate shot and killed his brother Tommy aboard the Titanic.
Why killing people is not important anymore.What matters is that he killed people.
Sitting on the worn prison blanket, Murdoch relaxed instead.
Even in the prison, the storm of the Titanic outside has been heard, and it has lasted for a long time.
Captain Smith, who sank with the Titanic, was on the cusp.Some said that he was calm and calm in the face of danger, and some said that he speeded up without authorization and should be fully responsible for the sinking of the Titanic.
They said that Smith was so obsessed with fame and wealth that he ignored the lives of [-] people on board!It was he who caused the shipwreck!
When hearing these rumors, Murdoch couldn't help crying for a long time in a corner.He watched the gray-haired captain walk into the wheelhouse and never come out again.
He is dead.
But the public opinion didn't even let this old man go.
In this prison, has he avoided the sharp edge of many words?
Homicide is a felony.Murdoch thought he was going to spend the rest of his life in a dark prison, but he didn't expect to be saved one day.
It made him thank Cal Hawker.
He will have a new life.And is about to witness the rise of a business empire.
.........
Cal Hockley, for the mainland, this name is like a thunderbolt.
He is the only person who has been re-appointed by the royal family for a hundred years.Not only because his company is one of the largest steel companies in Europe, but also because his contribution to the development of modern economics, physics, optoelectronics, computer science, humanities, etc. is immeasurable.
The Great Depression that lasted four years since 29 did not make him step back, but more like his ladder.He tried his best to turn the tide, forcibly adjusted the proportion of the market, and let the country get out of the economic haze.
He lived through the shipwreck of the Titanic, and the economic depression that brought down countless companies.But he and his company are still standing on this land.
It is said that he was guided by the gods, and his far-sighted vision allowed him to avoid most of the crises in his life at the right time.The industrial revolution allowed his father to establish a steel company, and the new technological revolution allowed him to establish the era of big data.
However, it is not necessary to think that he is good at economics and engineering, but he knows nothing about art aesthetics.
His name can be heard in various fields, such as language, painting, history, drama, and even Oriental tea ceremony calligraphy.It is worth noting that he showed extra attention and support to Eastern civilization.
So much so that when some people said that he should carefully consider the economy of his own country and ignore the opponents, he replied with a sentence that has puzzled the world for many years, "If it is really a matter of belonging, the most important thing I should do is to give up Hawker."
Because of Cal Hawker, it doesn't count as an attribution.
If Jiang Chen wants to fully control the initiative, then if he is a demon, the human race should be wiped out; if he is a human, all the other five races should be killed; if he is a god, the human monsters and monsters should be wiped out.
But he often couldn't even control his own identity in his first life, so how did he kill the hostile clan time and time again.If so, no matter who is destroyed, who should die, he should always be included.
This is just an interest that occasionally inflates in a certain life.
……
Rose knew all this.
She listened to Cal Hawker, looked at his name, and almost didn't know these few words.
Marked everywhere, are produced by Hawker.
She escaped from the suffocating cage, but found that the outside world that Canary longed for was not as beautiful as she imagined.The shadow of Cal Hockley still hangs over her head like a shadow.
Canary is Canary, no matter how strong she is, she is still a noble lady with a delicate life.Her life with Jack was full of artistic romance at the beginning.Jack is indeed very motivated, but their life is just food and clothing.Jack's paintings are great in Rose's eyes, but like Picasso, they are underappreciated.
How could there be a difference compared to Carl?
She thought Carl wasn't half-arty, but she found that he wasn't.This made her feel a bit regretful later.But Rose has always been a strong and independent girl, and she will never change her view of Carl because of this.Because her personal experience is enough to show how stubborn and conceited Karl is!
Even if she married him, she would not be happy.Karl never liked her, he just regarded her as a treasure that could be used for collection, showing off when he was happy, and shutting her up when he was unhappy, just like the heart of the ocean.But she is alone!People of flesh and blood!She is not that ignorant gem that can be arranged rigidly by others!
Jack opened the door of the hut, smoking a cigarette, and when he returned to the room, he took out his pen and wrote and drew on the drawing board.
Rose rubbed her hair in frustration, "Jack, we need to have a good talk."
"Huh? What's the matter? Honey."
"Don't you think our lives are a little tense?"
Jack sighed, seeing the abstract oil paintings in the small room, "If you can buy less paintings by Picasso or Monet, you will have a lot more money."
"What do you mean? Don't you think these pictures are very artistic?"
"Of course. They are all beautiful, I admit. But Rose, our economy is no longer enough for you to buy their paintings casually."
"This is art! How can art be measured by money!"
Jack took a deep breath on the cigarette, exhaled a smoke ring, and did not speak.
For Rose, art is more important than life.But she is no longer a noble lady.And his current strength is not enough for her to collect, appreciate and support other people's artistic creations all over the world.It's okay for him to live on the street as a homeless writer, but he can't bear it. He spent all his money on paintings and let Rose sleep on the street.
Rose obviously couldn't understand, and said loudly, "Karl won't stop me from buying Picasso's paintings!" Even though he always called Picasso an unknown person, Karl would never stop her from buying paintings, as long as she brought them with her. Let Speer help with the luggage.
Cal Hockley!
Hearing the name from her mouth, Jack was slightly taken aback.Is this a compliment?Maybe it's a compliment.Rose mentioned him more and more.From complaining that that person only knows about money but not art at the beginning, to now saying that at least he will not stop her from buying Picasso and Monet's paintings...
He suddenly felt a little cold in his heart.
Rose also took a cigarette, put it to her mouth, lit the firework, and exhaled a smoke ring.Jack sighed and took the cigarette out of her mouth, "It's not good for your health."
Rose Xiu frowned, "You can't buy paintings, and you can't smoke cigarettes. Why can you men smoke, but I can't."
"..." Jack also had a headache, couldn't hold back his anger any longer, and pushed away the painting on the table with a slap, "Then what do you want!"
Because she abandoned her identity, abandoned everything, and lived with him.So no matter what, he tried his best to satisfy Rose's wishes and put up with her eldest lady's temper!But she really doesn't understand the feelings of the lower class!
Life is not only about art, daily necessities, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar and tea. Haven’t her rough hands told her what the life of the American poor is like?
When Rose saw him like this, she immediately remembered the tea table that Carl overturned on the Titanic.Karl relied on his family's wealth, and the Bukat family relied on him.So what is Jack relying on?Isn't it just because she likes him that she left home and has no one to rely on?
Her face also became ugly.The lips with red lipstick evened out, and he took down the cigarette and threw it on the ground casually, leaving the smoky, dark and narrow house.She has had enough of this numb life!
She walked away without looking back, and Jack turned the table over with a sullen face.He stroked his hair back with one hand, extremely annoyed, the expression on his face wanted to laugh and cry at the same time.
In the end, he kicked up another kick, knocked over the surrounding paintings, and walked back and forth in the dimly lit room.
He calmed down, thought about it, packed up the valuables at home, and found a casino.The last time he gambled, he won the boat ticket on the Titanic and met his favorite Rose in his life. This time, he will definitely be able to do the same.
At least it can make everything a little bit better.
Perhaps Goddess of Luck favored Rose more, at least Rose became a little famous actress, but Jack was discounted because of his high debts.
Rose returns home, sees all the mess, and finally realizes that this is nothing like her ideal romantic life.The day she wants should be a clean and tidy hut by the sea, admiring Monet Picasso's paintings with him at sunset, and listening to Beethoven's sonatas with the sea breeze, not like this, in a dark and narrow board In the room, I watched the mouse chew and destroy the famous painting.There are neither long poems nor pianos.
Rose is still dressed beautifully, beautifully and stylishly.As she came in wearing a tall hat, Jack emerged from a pile of pornographic paintings.
"Jack, you've let me down so much!"
"..."
"I always say Karl is not a gentleman, but it seems that you are not as good as him!"
Jack finally sat up from all kinds of paintings, and he didn't know how to ignore his hair for several months.He said, "I'm not as good as him? Rose, Carl is not a gentleman, are you a lady? Don't be kidding! You can be with another man under the condition that you have a marriage contract with Carl. Your aristocratic etiquette is really true." cheap."
After speaking, he himself fell into silence first.He realized how harsh his words were to a lady who had once been a celebrity.He regretted it a little.
Rose felt ashamed for a moment.
"Enough! Jack! I didn't come here to let you insult me!" She took out the money from her bag, suppressing the pain in her heart, "Go and pay off your debt."
How did they get to where they are today?
They are so in love.
Rose flipped through her memories over the years, but she really couldn't find any answers.It seems that from the time the two people left the Titanic together alive and unhindered, everything has changed vaguely.
For a long time, there was a dead silence.
Jack asked, "What? You're leaving?"
"..."
"I should have thought about it a long time ago, how could a noble lady like you endure the life of a poor man." He slapped away the money with one hand, almost hysterical, "Play your polo! Buy your Picasso! Listen to your Beethoven! "
"I wish you and your new lover forever!"
Rose's face was red and white. Seeing him like this, there was not much affection left in her heart, so she turned her head and left.
Within a few days, Jack's body was turned out of a pile of pornographic paintings.
An autopsy said he died of alcohol intoxication.Jiang Chen knew the news of the drunken death of the New York painter, and had to say that it was similar to the original owner's death for no reason.
Wonder if the romantic artist would have felt better off dying in that shipwreck.
At least they will be a couple who will love each other until death.
As a result, the next day, Rose was picked up in the newspaper together with Jack.
Jiang Chen was unfortunately implicated.
Industry tycoon Hawke has never intended to get married.So the grievances and grievances between Carl and Rose in the past year were clearly revealed.
There are quite a few survivors of the Titanic, Rose and Carl's wedding posters are widely distributed, and even the fact that the boss was pried into a corner by a poor kid in the third class cabin, all of them are pieced together to get the most out of the truth.
Everyone is sympathetic.This was perhaps the only failure in Cal Hockley's life.No matter who it is, if they meet such a fiancée, they will no longer have the idea of getting married in the short term.It's just that his "short term" is much longer than ordinary people.
He is so affectionate and unrepentant that he has not been married for more than ten years.
In contrast, Jack died at home and his body stinks, and Rose seems to be looking for a new love, which is even more confusing.
Jiang Chen, who found himself being looked at with sympathy from time to time:?
In order to avoid being targeted by powerful figures in the business world, Rose's new husband decided to hide her temporarily.
There's no guarantee that Rose's face will continue to appear in the film, and Cal Hawker won't think about what the old love-hate will do to his new Rose husband.
Of course, it turns out he was overthinking it.
It never occurred to Cal Hawker that there was such a person as Rose.Or to be more precise, Carl, who could think of Rose Bukat, had already died on the so-called dream ship.
The author has something to say: Do you even know the word Hawkli?
I don't know anymore hahahaha
Thanks to the little angel 35737320 for smashing thunder
The scene was horrific.
Jiang Chen didn't fight to board other boats.Because this world is not important to him.He lives only because he doesn't want to die.And what he did before, to Jiang Chen, it wasn't that they were worth saving, it was just that he saved his own life.

When rendezvousing with the lifeboat of the Titanic, there was a loud voice, "Why don't you let us board Carpathia!"
"I want a stove! Green tea! I can pay tens of thousands, 10,000+ dollars! Just don't let me stay in this crowded old and capsized boat! God!"
Mrs. Morley couldn't help scolding, "Enough! Stop showing off your aristocratic pomp! Now is not the time for you to drink tea and chat!"
"Ah! You fat vulgar woman, how dare you yell at me! Do you know who I am!"
Mrs. Morley had a cold face, "Don't think you are so noble! Mr. Guggenheim is in the sea and you are on the boat. If you want to talk about nobility, you should go down first to make room for those who truly cherish life!"
The lady made an unbelievable expression and shouted in surprise, "Oh! My God! What evil nonsense are you talking about!"

Mrs. Morley was relieved to see him.Finally met a living acquaintance.
She talked about God for a while, and couldn't help asking about Jiang Chen's situation. "How are you feeling, Hawke?"
Jiang Chen only replied, "It's pretty safe. Thank you for your concern."

Murdoch wiped his tears, reached for the gun in his uniform pocket, took it out slowly, put it on top of his head, pulled the trigger, and shot himself.After a soft sound, he opened his eyes and opened the barrel of the gun. The bullets were exhausted last night when he threatened the crowd to maintain order.

Captain Smith, who sank with the Titanic, was on the cusp.Some said that he was calm and calm in the face of danger, and some said that he speeded up without authorization and should be fully responsible for the sinking of the Titanic.
They said that Smith was so obsessed with fame and wealth that he ignored the lives of [-] people on board!It was he who caused the shipwreck!
When hearing these rumors, Murdoch couldn't help crying for a long time in a corner.He watched the gray-haired captain walk into the wheelhouse and never come out again.
He is dead.
But the public opinion didn't even let this old man go.
In this prison, has he avoided the sharp edge of many words?
Homicide is a felony.Murdoch thought he was going to spend the rest of his life in a dark prison, but he didn't expect to be saved one day.
It made him thank Cal Hawker.
He will have a new life.And is about to witness the rise of a business empire.
.........
Cal Hockley, for the mainland, this name is like a thunderbolt.
He is the only person who has been re-appointed by the royal family for a hundred years.Not only because his company is one of the largest steel companies in Europe, but also because his contribution to the development of modern economics, physics, optoelectronics, computer science, humanities, etc. is immeasurable.
The Great Depression that lasted four years since 29 did not make him step back, but more like his ladder.He tried his best to turn the tide, forcibly adjusted the proportion of the market, and let the country get out of the economic haze.
He lived through the shipwreck of the Titanic, and the economic depression that brought down countless companies.But he and his company are still standing on this land.
It is said that he was guided by the gods, and his far-sighted vision allowed him to avoid most of the crises in his life at the right time.The industrial revolution allowed his father to establish a steel company, and the new technological revolution allowed him to establish the era of big data.
However, it is not necessary to think that he is good at economics and engineering, but he knows nothing about art aesthetics.
His name can be heard in various fields, such as language, painting, history, drama, and even Oriental tea ceremony calligraphy.It is worth noting that he showed extra attention and support to Eastern civilization.
So much so that when some people said that he should carefully consider the economy of his own country and ignore the opponents, he replied with a sentence that has puzzled the world for many years, "If it is really a matter of belonging, the most important thing I should do is to give up Hawker."
Because of Cal Hawker, it doesn't count as an attribution.
If Jiang Chen wants to fully control the initiative, then if he is a demon, the human race should be wiped out; if he is a human, all the other five races should be killed; if he is a god, the human monsters and monsters should be wiped out.
But he often couldn't even control his own identity in his first life, so how did he kill the hostile clan time and time again.If so, no matter who is destroyed, who should die, he should always be included.
This is just an interest that occasionally inflates in a certain life.
……
Rose knew all this.
She listened to Cal Hawker, looked at his name, and almost didn't know these few words.
Marked everywhere, are produced by Hawker.
She escaped from the suffocating cage, but found that the outside world that Canary longed for was not as beautiful as she imagined.The shadow of Cal Hockley still hangs over her head like a shadow.
Canary is Canary, no matter how strong she is, she is still a noble lady with a delicate life.Her life with Jack was full of artistic romance at the beginning.Jack is indeed very motivated, but their life is just food and clothing.Jack's paintings are great in Rose's eyes, but like Picasso, they are underappreciated.
How could there be a difference compared to Carl?
She thought Carl wasn't half-arty, but she found that he wasn't.This made her feel a bit regretful later.But Rose has always been a strong and independent girl, and she will never change her view of Carl because of this.Because her personal experience is enough to show how stubborn and conceited Karl is!
Even if she married him, she would not be happy.Karl never liked her, he just regarded her as a treasure that could be used for collection, showing off when he was happy, and shutting her up when he was unhappy, just like the heart of the ocean.But she is alone!People of flesh and blood!She is not that ignorant gem that can be arranged rigidly by others!
Jack opened the door of the hut, smoking a cigarette, and when he returned to the room, he took out his pen and wrote and drew on the drawing board.
Rose rubbed her hair in frustration, "Jack, we need to have a good talk."
"Huh? What's the matter? Honey."
"Don't you think our lives are a little tense?"
Jack sighed, seeing the abstract oil paintings in the small room, "If you can buy less paintings by Picasso or Monet, you will have a lot more money."
"What do you mean? Don't you think these pictures are very artistic?"
"Of course. They are all beautiful, I admit. But Rose, our economy is no longer enough for you to buy their paintings casually."
"This is art! How can art be measured by money!"
Jack took a deep breath on the cigarette, exhaled a smoke ring, and did not speak.
For Rose, art is more important than life.But she is no longer a noble lady.And his current strength is not enough for her to collect, appreciate and support other people's artistic creations all over the world.It's okay for him to live on the street as a homeless writer, but he can't bear it. He spent all his money on paintings and let Rose sleep on the street.
Rose obviously couldn't understand, and said loudly, "Karl won't stop me from buying Picasso's paintings!" Even though he always called Picasso an unknown person, Karl would never stop her from buying paintings, as long as she brought them with her. Let Speer help with the luggage.
Cal Hockley!
Hearing the name from her mouth, Jack was slightly taken aback.Is this a compliment?Maybe it's a compliment.Rose mentioned him more and more.From complaining that that person only knows about money but not art at the beginning, to now saying that at least he will not stop her from buying Picasso and Monet's paintings...
He suddenly felt a little cold in his heart.
Rose also took a cigarette, put it to her mouth, lit the firework, and exhaled a smoke ring.Jack sighed and took the cigarette out of her mouth, "It's not good for your health."
Rose Xiu frowned, "You can't buy paintings, and you can't smoke cigarettes. Why can you men smoke, but I can't."
"..." Jack also had a headache, couldn't hold back his anger any longer, and pushed away the painting on the table with a slap, "Then what do you want!"
Because she abandoned her identity, abandoned everything, and lived with him.So no matter what, he tried his best to satisfy Rose's wishes and put up with her eldest lady's temper!But she really doesn't understand the feelings of the lower class!
Life is not only about art, daily necessities, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar and tea. Haven’t her rough hands told her what the life of the American poor is like?
When Rose saw him like this, she immediately remembered the tea table that Carl overturned on the Titanic.Karl relied on his family's wealth, and the Bukat family relied on him.So what is Jack relying on?Isn't it just because she likes him that she left home and has no one to rely on?
Her face also became ugly.The lips with red lipstick evened out, and he took down the cigarette and threw it on the ground casually, leaving the smoky, dark and narrow house.She has had enough of this numb life!
She walked away without looking back, and Jack turned the table over with a sullen face.He stroked his hair back with one hand, extremely annoyed, the expression on his face wanted to laugh and cry at the same time.
In the end, he kicked up another kick, knocked over the surrounding paintings, and walked back and forth in the dimly lit room.
He calmed down, thought about it, packed up the valuables at home, and found a casino.The last time he gambled, he won the boat ticket on the Titanic and met his favorite Rose in his life. This time, he will definitely be able to do the same.
At least it can make everything a little bit better.
Perhaps Goddess of Luck favored Rose more, at least Rose became a little famous actress, but Jack was discounted because of his high debts.
Rose returns home, sees all the mess, and finally realizes that this is nothing like her ideal romantic life.The day she wants should be a clean and tidy hut by the sea, admiring Monet Picasso's paintings with him at sunset, and listening to Beethoven's sonatas with the sea breeze, not like this, in a dark and narrow board In the room, I watched the mouse chew and destroy the famous painting.There are neither long poems nor pianos.
Rose is still dressed beautifully, beautifully and stylishly.As she came in wearing a tall hat, Jack emerged from a pile of pornographic paintings.
"Jack, you've let me down so much!"
"..."
"I always say Karl is not a gentleman, but it seems that you are not as good as him!"
Jack finally sat up from all kinds of paintings, and he didn't know how to ignore his hair for several months.He said, "I'm not as good as him? Rose, Carl is not a gentleman, are you a lady? Don't be kidding! You can be with another man under the condition that you have a marriage contract with Carl. Your aristocratic etiquette is really true." cheap."
After speaking, he himself fell into silence first.He realized how harsh his words were to a lady who had once been a celebrity.He regretted it a little.
Rose felt ashamed for a moment.
"Enough! Jack! I didn't come here to let you insult me!" She took out the money from her bag, suppressing the pain in her heart, "Go and pay off your debt."
How did they get to where they are today?
They are so in love.
Rose flipped through her memories over the years, but she really couldn't find any answers.It seems that from the time the two people left the Titanic together alive and unhindered, everything has changed vaguely.
For a long time, there was a dead silence.
Jack asked, "What? You're leaving?"
"..."
"I should have thought about it a long time ago, how could a noble lady like you endure the life of a poor man." He slapped away the money with one hand, almost hysterical, "Play your polo! Buy your Picasso! Listen to your Beethoven! "
"I wish you and your new lover forever!"
Rose's face was red and white. Seeing him like this, there was not much affection left in her heart, so she turned her head and left.
Within a few days, Jack's body was turned out of a pile of pornographic paintings.
An autopsy said he died of alcohol intoxication.Jiang Chen knew the news of the drunken death of the New York painter, and had to say that it was similar to the original owner's death for no reason.
Wonder if the romantic artist would have felt better off dying in that shipwreck.
At least they will be a couple who will love each other until death.
As a result, the next day, Rose was picked up in the newspaper together with Jack.
Jiang Chen was unfortunately implicated.
Industry tycoon Hawke has never intended to get married.So the grievances and grievances between Carl and Rose in the past year were clearly revealed.
There are quite a few survivors of the Titanic, Rose and Carl's wedding posters are widely distributed, and even the fact that the boss was pried into a corner by a poor kid in the third class cabin, all of them are pieced together to get the most out of the truth.
Everyone is sympathetic.This was perhaps the only failure in Cal Hockley's life.No matter who it is, if they meet such a fiancée, they will no longer have the idea of getting married in the short term.It's just that his "short term" is much longer than ordinary people.
He is so affectionate and unrepentant that he has not been married for more than ten years.
In contrast, Jack died at home and his body stinks, and Rose seems to be looking for a new love, which is even more confusing.
Jiang Chen, who found himself being looked at with sympathy from time to time:?
In order to avoid being targeted by powerful figures in the business world, Rose's new husband decided to hide her temporarily.
There's no guarantee that Rose's face will continue to appear in the film, and Cal Hawker won't think about what the old love-hate will do to his new Rose husband.
Of course, it turns out he was overthinking it.
It never occurred to Cal Hawker that there was such a person as Rose.Or to be more precise, Carl, who could think of Rose Bukat, had already died on the so-called dream ship.
The author has something to say: Do you even know the word Hawkli?
I don't know anymore hahahaha
