The man's low-alcohol and sexy voice sounded slowly, with the steady momentum of the superior, and every word was loud.

Ruth's eyes widened in shock, and the knife in her hand accidentally fell onto the porcelain plate, making a crisp crashing sound.

"I'm sorry...... What did you say? No, I mean ......"

"Yes, that's what you think," Carl chuckled as he looked at the girl with joy in his eyes, "I've broken off my engagement with you. ”

"—from today onwards, you are no longer my fiancée. Of course, I will never interfere in all your personal questions in the future, and the only thing to pay attention to is ...... Before the Titanic docks, please be sure to keep this secret, after all, I don't want to face your noisy noble lady's mother. ”

For the first time, Ruth smiled genuinely in front of him.

"No problem, of course I'll keep it a secret!"

After all, she didn't want to face the questioning of her pampered and snobbish mother.

The handsome aristocratic gentleman raised his glass and raised his fair and smooth chin slightly.

"Good, we've finally come to an agreement."

The red-haired girl who was hit by the sudden surprise used her last breakfast in the private café with relish, and quietly glanced up at the man opposite while chewing, and found that he was not good from head to toe except for beauty and gold.

Although he was always cold and detached from her, arrogant and arrogant, at least for now, he was still a little human.

Poor Ruth had no idea that the benefactor who had saved her was someone else, and that man was now heartbroken trying to reverse the fate of a thousand shipwrecks.

"Did the last four boilers burn, Smith?"

"No, not yet, the ship is fast enough now. As a rule of thumb and common sense, those four boilers are usually just standby, except in exceptional circumstances. ”

Outside the public smoking room in the first class, two well-dressed gentlemen were talking about whether the Titanic needed to speed up.

Xin also stood around the corner, listening to 001's real-time conversation, ready to find an opportunity to interrupt the men's conversation.

"Come on, my captain." Ismay took off the hat on his head and said a little impatiently, "The whole world is watching Titanic's maiden voyage, don't you want to leave a strong mark on your career before you retire?" ”

As the chairman of White Star Company, in order to help the company come back to life, he secretly teamed up with a gang of people to take advantage of this trip to Titanic, wanting to design an accident to defraud a huge amount of insurance money.

He made preparations after the wreck, and the distress signal and the nearest rescue ship also greeted him, as long as there was an accident, he would be safe and sound.

It's just that Captain Smith is too stubborn and conservative, and if the ship is not fast enough, his plot may fail.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Ismay, but I don't think that's right. If the ship wants to speed up, it can only wait until it is sailing very well......" said the gray-bearded old captain, holding a cup of tea.

"Yes, I'm just a passenger, and it's up to you to decide whether to accelerate or not. But let's say you're on the last voyage of your life and you're able to get the ship into New York on Tuesday night......"

He leaned in and patted Smith on the shoulder, "That's going to be the headline of all the newspapers, isn't it?" Think about it, how glorious, how amazing......"

"—Good day, Mr. Smith."

Before Ismay continue to shake Smith's mind with the tempting prospect, a soft, low-pitched, sensual female voice rang out from behind her.

"It's good to end your sailing career with the Titanic's debut, but it doesn't take long for such a huge hull to speed up to the limit...... With your many years of experience, have all the consequences been anticipated? ”
