[Titanic + Comprehensive] Annie

Karl would like to reject Antonio as straightforwardly as he imagined on the Titanic, but now that the little girl's serious brother is here, it doesn't make sense for him to go overboard.

Therefore, he could only watch as Robert accepted Antonio's proposal, and the two made an appointment to have afternoon tea together at the Rose Restaurant in the hotel two days later.

Almost no one in the UK does not know what the surname Frost stands for. Let alone the marquis status bestowed by the King of England, the Frost family has also done a lot of business, and almost all walks of life have a foot in it. Now that Of course, if you have the opportunity to know the heirs of their generation, you must take good care of it.

While they were talking, Richard Dede went with Davidson to complete the check-in procedures, so after Annie and the others bid farewell to Antonio, they went directly to the room.

This group of people, regardless of gender, is not in the mood to visit the interior design and facilities of the top hotel in Manhattan. After entering the room, several people sat down in groups in the living room. Of course, Carl himself and the three siblings were on the other side. I don't have the guts to do something that hurts my brother and sister's eyes, so I have to wrong Mr. Capitalist.

"I want to know what's going on with the engagement, Anne, tell me first." Robert didn't procrastinate, and went straight to the point.

Anne briefly recounted the fact that she found herself on the boat and Mr. Capitalist had a crush on each other and Karl proposed a few days ago.

Of course, in her discourse, she is more or less biased towards Mr. Capitalist, for example: Carl could have disembarked in Queenstown but stayed to find him; how to save and take care of himself; when he fell into the water, he found himself with a search and rescue boat The blablabla...

Hearing what Carl did for Annie earlier, Robert and Lily really couldn't put on a bad face to treat the man who intended to kidnap their sister, but when Annie talked about the marriage proposal, Robert frowned...

Proposed four days ago?

I and Lily sent him a telegram to confirm the itinerary seven days ago, so Hockley planned it beforehand?Hurry to settle the matter before he and Lily arrive?

Regardless of whether things were as he had guessed or not, Carl's behavior undoubtedly made Robert, who was already quite dissatisfied with his silently abducting his sister, even more angry!

The crime is added to the class!

"I get the general idea. Now, does Mr. Hockley have anything to add?"

oh!Are you so angry that even Karl doesn't bark?

Annie quietly gave Carl a cautious look, but unfortunately the two of them were the focus of attention now, and her behavior that she thought was secret could not be hidden from her brother and sister who were carefully observing the two.

Carl looked at his friend calmly.

What can I add?

What an obvious thing!

I, just, yes, think, abduct, bring, you, home, sister, sister, ah! ! !

Mr. Capitalist sat up straight, without saying anything false, and said directly to Robert: "Please marry Annie to me."

Of the three brothers and sisters of Robert's family, one of them suddenly became darker, one's cat eyes widened, and the other's cheeks turned red.

Lily is very measured. When Robert was around, she rarely went beyond her brother to find a sense of presence, but now she really can't help it!

"Mr. Hockley, don't you know that there is a ten-year difference between you and Annie?" You are both old men, how dare you miss Annie, a young flower?

"Eight years old." Carl corrected.

"Anne celebrated her 17th birthday on the Titanic, and I am 25 years old this year. Our ages are not so different." The brown-haired man sat upright, carefully explaining the mathematical subtraction calculation problem to the Queen's sister.

Lily was speechless.

(→_→) Is there a big difference between ten years old and eight years old?

Her ideal brother-in-law should be three or four years younger than Annie. They are about the same age, so they can understand each other's thoughts better and can play together.

Hockley is so much older than Annie, and when Annie turns 25 and blooms like a flower, he will be 35, among other things, will he still have the strength to satisfy Annie in bed?She doesn't want her sister to be a widow one day!

"Let's not talk about the age issue." It's useless to argue about this unchangeable fact. "We didn't intend to marry Anne so far away."

Carl turned his head to face Robert, and said seriously: "Give me time, I can move to England."

Hearing this kind of answer, Robert finally felt a little better. At least Karl is willing to pay for Annie, but Hockley is a huge family. Let alone whether Karl can successfully shift the company's focus, his clan members will agree with him. this way?

Although Carl has the heart, his promise is not something that can be easily fulfilled, so Robert is still not optimistic about him becoming his brother-in-law.

"What does your family say?"

Fall out!

Annie secretly answered in her heart.

If Robert knows that old Mr. Hockley doesn't look down on her at all, I'm afraid Karl will be miserable!

"They don't matter."

Robert raised his eyebrows, it wasn't just two people who got married, but two families, two families, and two big businesses!Now Carl told him that his family's opinion didn't matter?

"I'm leaving the Hockleys, so their opinions don't matter at all," Carl added.

Lili raised her eyebrows: "Your family doesn't agree with your marriage to Annie?" What's the matter?How dare he let them hand over Annie to him?At that time, don't look back and say that you are sorry for Annie because your family objected.

Robert also looked at Carl seriously. When he was in England before, he never heard the man in front of him mention that he wanted to leave the family. He even rushed back to the United States to deal with the company's affairs. Being independent from that top wealthy family, it is hard to believe that there is no Annie among them.

"Yes and no."

Old Hockley probably wouldn't be willing to help them be a witness, so he couldn't hide the fact that he disagreed with Anne being the mistress of the Hockley family.

"My father has always wanted to marry the Stone Group, so the root of the problem is not Annie." Old Hockley would not be satisfied if he married any woman who was not from the Stone family, unless the other party had a higher status.

Stone's company happens to be in an upstream and downstream relationship with Hockley's family. Once they get married, they can save a lot of costs and even develop into a self-sufficient one-stop enterprise. This is the old Hockley's idea. Unfortunately, in the last life of Knox It didn't work out, because Shi Dong Enterprise's ambition is not small, and it will not give in at all.

"I don't want my marriage to become a bargaining chip to expand the family business. Moreover, I am tired of fighting with a lot of illegitimate children, so I would rather take this opportunity to leave the family and start anew by myself."

Hearing that Karl has personally experienced the pain brought by illegitimate children, Robert is quite satisfied. At least when Karl wants to cheat, he will think about it more. troubled.

Having said that, Robert began to seriously consider the possibility of Carl and Annie.

If Carl really succeeded in leaving the family as he said, Annie's life in the future would be much easier. She would not have to deal with so many people and affairs in the family, and just live a married life with Carl. In this way, Carl said he would It will be more credible if you can develop in the UK.

He had seen Carl's ability before when he was discussing business in England, so Robert was not worried that Anne would suffer hardships after leaving the family.

In addition, even if Karl adopts other women in the future, at least there will be no illegitimate children to trouble Anne, and he believes that with Karl's method, if he wants to keep a mistress outside without telling his sister, he can hide it for a lifetime... This The sister-in-law can indeed consider it.

After all, Robert didn't expect his sister to really meet a good man who would be devoted to her for the rest of her life.It is true that keeping lovers is already a trend in today's society, and even a French official said that "a mistress is like a police detective's gun", and described a woman who is kept as a necessary item.

Even if he was good friends with Carl, he didn't have much confidence in Carl, Robert thought, and his doubts about Carl's integrity would probably last a lifetime until one of them closed his eyes for good.

If he agrees to the marriage of these two people, Robert only hopes that if one day Carl betrays the marriage, for the sake of their friendship, Anne will never know that he has another woman for the rest of her life, so that her sister can spend her whole life Live peacefully and happily in the fortress they built for her.

But for now, he has another thing to worry about: Carl chooses to leave the family at this time, and Anne may bear a bad reputation.

As Robert weighs the pros and cons of Carl's relationship with Annie, Lily is the first to voice her suspicions.

"After breaking away from the Hockley family, what do you use to support Anne?" Hockley wouldn't want to live on Anne's dowry, would he?

"I will re-establish a new Hockley Enterprise." Carl said to Lily seriously: "I will never let Annie suffer."

"Anyone can say something nice!" Lily murmured softly, but everyone present could hear it at that volume.

"Sister!" Anne prevented Lily from saying any more bad words, she believed that with Carl's pride, he would rather suffer for himself than let her have a bad life.

"Okay, let's talk about this today, I have to think about it again. We just disembarked, and the rest will be discussed after two days of rest." Robert rubbed his brows, and then issued an order to evict, "Carl, you go back first , Anne can just stay here, thanks to you taking care of her these days, thank you."

After the shock of his sister becoming someone else, Robert somewhat regained his sanity, and his attitude towards Carl was not as rigid as it was at the beginning, but Anne would not let Mr. Capitalist take him away.

"Her things are all in my place..." The brunette man wanted to fight for himself again.

"Did we bring some over, or would you please pick up some and send them over later? Lily and I are here, there is no reason to continue to trouble you to take care of Anne." Robert insisted on this.

From this engagement incident, he also saw Karl's attitude towards Anne as sure to win. Before the matter was confirmed, it was more reassuring for Anne to be under his nose, so as to save Karl from playing other tricks.

It's a pity that my elder brother thought of the beginning, but didn't think of the end. Carl Hockley was more daring, cunning, and shameless than he knew. He and Lily failed to bring Anne back to England after all.

A couple of lovers go out sweetly, but it ends with Mr. Capitalist leaving the hotel alone. No matter how you look at it, the figure is a bit bleak.

Within two hours, Davidson delivered some of Annie's usual necessities and clothes.

Annie quietly asked about Carl's situation after he returned. The expression on Mr. Capitalist's face when he left made her really worried. When she learned that the man only drank and didn't eat when he returned home, the little girl was very angry and anxious.

"Grandpa housekeeper, please be sure to watch Carl eat after you go back. Drinking on an empty stomach hurts the stomach the most." Annie repeatedly told him, "Tell him, if he doesn't obey, I won't listen to him anymore!"

Davidson smiled and Mimi agreed.

For the sake of the young master's happiness, sometimes it is good to say that the young master is a little pitiful.

Several people were in the same space, and of course Robert and Lily heard what the old housekeeper said, neither of them commented, urging Anne to give the things to the maid as soon as possible, and then go to eat with them.

The three siblings got together precisely because it was time for dinner.

Seeing this, Davidson bid farewell to them tactfully.

Annie turned her head and said coquettishly to Robert: "Brother, Carl is very good to me, don't be so fierce to him next time!"

Confused!

She's falling for him even before she's married!

The more Annie speaks for Carl, the more jealous Robert and Lily are.

"Okay, let's eat first, you little villain with your arms bent out!" Lily angrily stopped her sister from irritating her brother again, didn't she see that Robert's face turned dark again?

oh~~~

Annie finally found out, but the words had already been spoken, and it was too late to save her, so she touched her nose and sat down dejectedly.

"The day after tomorrow, treat Carl to lunch or dinner, and formally thank him for his help during this period."

Abducting my sister is one thing, and taking care of her is another thing. Robert makes the distinction very clearly, first repay the favor, and then we will settle the score!

snort! (╬￣dish￣)

"At night, he's very busy during the day." Annie helped Carl make a decision without thinking about it.

Robert, Lily: ...this feeling of an old married couple...is there still time to bring my sister home?

Annie, who noticed that the atmosphere was weird for a moment, hurriedly made amends: "Just like my brother, he is busy during the day and has a lot of company affairs, but he will go home for dinner at night."

"Okay, you don't need to explain anymore."

It's getting darker and darker!

Robert rubbed his forehead, wondering if Lily will do the same in the future?

The elder brother who recovered from facial paralysis glanced at Lily who was shaking his head at Annie, and sighed deeply in his heart. One of his two younger sisters was too powerful, and the other was too dependent. Let's not talk about Lily, maybe Hockley Maybe that strong temper is really a good choice for Annie?
