At the table, Ruth blinked and turned her head to listen carefully to the conversation between Russell and the captain.

Russell looked at Smith and said, "Mr. Smith should know how long this ship is." ”

"Yes, 269 meters."

"If you're driving a 124-meter cruise ship, how do you handle it if you're in danger 300 meters ahead?"

"Turn right to full rudder and reverse."

Smith replied fluently.

"And what if it's the Titanic?"

Smith froze, he seemed to understand something.

"Mr. Walker, do you mean that if the Titanic is also in danger at 300 meters, and at a speed of 23 knots, it will not have time to turn around, let alone brake the car, she will ......"

"That's right, that's what it means."

Smith gratefully, "Mr. Walker, I am so grateful that you are honest with me. ”

"You're welcome, I'm just here for safety."

"You're a good security consultant, and if you open a company in the U.S., business is going to be very good."

"Lend you good words."

Captain Smith had a few words in mind about the matter, and hurried away.

After he left, Russell glanced at Ruth, who was now staring blankly at his side face with her chin bent.

Immediately, Russell ignored her and walked straight out of the restaurant.

As he reached the door of the restaurant, he heard hurried footsteps behind him.

"Mr. Walker, why don't you call me."

Russell stopped when he heard the sound, and Ruth couldn't brake behind him, hitting him headfirst in the back.

"Oh! Mr. Walker, I'm sorry for me... I didn't mean to. ”

He turned to look down and asked, "What are you doing with me?" ”

Ruth was stunned, originally thinking that with Mr. Walker's gentlemanly demeanor, she would ask if she was in pain, and if she was hurt. But I didn't expect him to be so indifferent, as if he didn't take himself in his eyes.

"I ......"

Russell frowned and stared at her, waved his hand impatiently, "Don't tell me this, I don't care about it." Are you Ruth? ”

When she heard the first half of the sentence, her heart suddenly felt cold, which seemed different from what she had imagined.

Ruth had fantasized that Russell was attracted to her beauty and then poured out her experience to serve her for the rest of her life.

But I didn't expect Mr. Walker to be so indifferent and disdainful of her.

However, when she heard the latter words, she actually felt a little happy in her heart.

Did Mr. Walker remember her name? That's a good momentum.

At this time, Ruth was only an eighteen or nineteen-year-old girl, and she had never been attracted to a man, let alone had a romantic experience.

Although she and Carl are engaged, it is a family marriage, and she has no feelings for Carl, and even hates his rudeness and vulgar taste!

"Yes, Mr. Walker, I'm Ruth, and you have a good memory."

Russell said suddenly, "Then do you know Mr. Karl's room?" I'm looking for him. ”

"Of course I do, he and I ...... No, I know where he lives, what are you looking for him? ”

"Talk about business."

"Oh! Good. His personal bodyguard was injured and invited you to be his security advisor? ”

Russell stared down at her, "Don't ask what you shouldn't." ”

Ruth already understood his character, so she said cheerfully, "Okay, I'll take you to him." ”

She was looking forward to Carl being taught a lesson by Mr. Walker again, and whenever she remembered that Carl had returned to his room with his head covered last night, she gloated and was so excited that she couldn't help herself.

Due to long-term psychological depression, no one understands and helps her, which makes her look at things with a distorted and extreme feeling.

She hates gentlemen, aristocrats, and even more averse to those who are obviously not bullshit, but call themselves nobles!

And Russell is very real, which gives her hope.

She didn't want to be a canary in a cage, so she desperately wanted to catch it, and then begged him to escape from the cage with her.

Ruth walked on tiptoe in front of her, did she turn her head to look at Russell, her expression sometimes smiling, sometimes frustrated......

"You should look at the road." Russell reminded.

Ruth slowed down to join him, looked sideways at him and asked, "Mr. Walker, has I provoked you in any way?" Why are there two very different attitudes towards me and others? ”

"You're questioning me?"

"No, I just feel wronged."

Russell ignored her indifferently and said, "Your mother scolded me for being a poor ghost. ”

"She's her, I'm me, you shouldn't do this to me, at least I didn't offend you."

Russell raised the corners of his mouth and laughed: "I hate aristocrats, is this reason enough?" ”

Ruth's face froze, and then she retorted, "Mr. Walker, I never considered myself a nobleman!" Even if it was, it was a caged finch raised by the nobility. ”

"Besides, my mother scolded you, and you shouldn't be angry with me......"

Russell said, "Fisher has been duly punished, as for you...... You have a marriage contract, it's best to stay away from me, I'm a bachelor, so I don't want to have a scandal with a noble girl, how can I gain a foothold in the United States in the future? In addition, I am very disgusted with self-righteous aristocratic girls! ”

Ruth's face was full of anger when she heard this, and the two of them were located in a sideboard corridor where there were few passengers.

She grabbed Russell's arm, stared directly at him, and said sonorously: "I'm not a noble girl!" I'm not like those damned aristocrats! Mr. Walker, you have been so disrespectful to me that it is not the proper behavior of a gentleman. ”

Russell looked at her indifferently, and the corners of his mouth raised.

That's what he wants, otherwise he wouldn't have communicated with her in this way.

creates a strong sense of contrast, allowing Ruth to release all the repression in her heart, and then she will become dependent on him and be able to open up at any time.

"I'm a poor ghost, not an upstart. And you're a nobleman......"

When Ruth heard the word 'noble', it was as if she had been struck in anger.

"Mr. Walker! As I said, I'm not a damn aristocrat! My father had passed away, leaving behind a huge debt, and my mother, in order to pay off the debts and continue to enjoy the aristocratic life, decided to sell me to the Karl family to support my mother in luxury!

As for my engagement with Carl, it was arranged by my mother, and I didn't know about it before that!

If it weren't for my mother's whispering in my ears all day long, to maintain the glory of the family and to maintain the title of nobility, I wouldn't have gotten on the boat!

That Carl was rough, bad-bellied, very controlling, and had no taste for art, and I had no common language with him, let alone feelings...

I hate him so much! In my eyes, Carl is not as good as a street begging bum, he is simply a turtle! ”

Ruth vented all the grievances and grievances accumulated in her heart.

Suddenly, she seemed to be much more relaxed.

"Mr. Walker...... I, I'm not angry with you, I ...... I just wanted to tell you that I'm really not a noble girl. ”

I have known an old book friend for ten years to recommend a book-chasing app,! It's really easy to use, driving, before going to bed rely on this reading aloud to pass the time, you can download it here.. 】

Russell turned his head to look left and right and said, "I see." ”

With that, he stepped forward.

Ruth was dazed again, which was a little different from what she had imagined.

Imagined that Mr. Walker should comfort her, but he didn't......

On the contrary, when she said that she knew, she overshadowed all her angry words just now.

It made her feel an indescribable feeling in her heart.

"Mr. Walker, please wait for me."

Ruth caught up, Russell turned his head to look at her, and said, "Are you in a better mood?" ”

"Huh?" She was momentarily stunned and stammered: "You, you... What do you mean... Deliberately? ”

Russell nodded, and mumbled.

Suddenly, Ruth froze in place.

She didn't expect that Mr. Walker's words and demeanor just now were all deliberate, and the purpose was to let her vent the gloom in her heart.

"Walker... Mr. Walker..."

Ruth opened her mouth to squeeze out a sound from her throat, but she couldn't say a complete sentence.

His throat seemed to be blocked by a stone, his eyes were red, and tears were streaming down his face.

Russell stopped and turned his head and beckoned to her, "Keep up." ”

"Ahh Okay, Mr. Walker! ”

At this time, Ruth was extremely happy, and although she was in tears, it was tears of excitement.

No one has ever understood her, and no one has ever really cared about her, they are all for fame and fortune.

And Mr. Walker understood her well.

Ruth didn't know how to express her gratitude, but followed him with a smile on her face, turning her head from time to time to look at his side face, her eyes full of adoration and affection.

"You should think about how to explain to Fisher, Carl."

"Explain what?" Ruth asked.

"You were very loud just now, and although there weren't many people in the hallway, many of the people in the room heard it."

Ruth blinked and said, "Mr. Walker, do you care about me?" ”

Russell frowned and turned his head, "You're very good at being sentimental." ”

"Haha, yes, and I think I'm being hypocritical. It doesn't matter, even if they get out and their mother knows about it, she will only treat me as a rebellious girl, as for Carl? Leave him alone! When I get to the United States, I will run away and never marry him! ”

Since opening her heart, Ruth's mood has stabilized a lot, and she has a smile on her face, and she no longer has a numb and helpless look.

"Mr. Walker, I think you're not just a good security advisor, you're also an escape expert, can you teach me how to escape?"

Russell nodded and said, "Yes." ”

"Really? Oh! Awesome and thank you Mr. Walker. Ruth cheered.

"Don't rejoice too early, you have to add money."

"What? … I, I don't have any money. ”

Ruth immediately put away her smile and turned to frustration.

She didn't expect Mr. Walker to be so realistic, couldn't he do things without money?

This is the sequelae of her being in captivity, the luxurious life of fine clothes and fine food, which makes her think that money is not important, even if she has no money, she will live happily.

"It's hard to do without money."

Ruth asked, "So how much money do you need?" ”

"It depends on how sincere you are."

"Is that okay later, I'll give it to you before I arrive in the United States."

"Okay."

The Titanic's luxurious first-class suite costs $4,350, or about £870. This is the price of 1912!

It includes a living room, powder room, two bedrooms and dressing rooms, and a private walking deck of approximately 50 feet with stunning ocean views.

The interiors are more luxurious than the average first class, with fine wood paneling, fine Georgian Art Nouveau furniture, and even the bedding is handmade silk......

Ruth led Russell to B52, where she pushed open the door and made an invitation gesture.

"Mr. Walker, please come in."

Karl sat on the sofa in the living room with a sad face, and looked up at the sound of a voice.

Then he saw Ruth open the door for Russell herself, with a warm smile on her face, a smile he had never seen before.

At this moment, Carl was a little confused.

Looking blankly at Russell and Ruth, how could the two of them get together?

And it looks like we had a good time?

Carl didn't know what was going on in the dining room, he even enjoyed his lunch in his bedroom, because he couldn't meet people with a pig's face, and the celebrity circles in first class were discussing his gossip.

Ruth didn't follow up, but stood at the door and asked, "Mr. Walker, may I listen to you talk about business?" I want to learn to do business. ”
