"Ruth, why are you here? !" An old female voice came from a distance, and Monet saw an old woman walking quickly up to Ruth's side. It was clearly Ruth's mother, Mrs. Bookett.
"Mother, why are you here?" Seeing her mother's arrival, Ruth was obviously surprised, because she had originally planned to change her name and leave the family that suffocated her, so she did not go to look for her mother and Carl, but unexpectedly let her mother find her.
'Of course I'm coming. Come on, come back with me! "Said Mrs. Bookett with a strong attitude.
"No, I'm not going back, I'm done with Carl, and I don't want to go back to that place where I suffocated!" Ruth replied with emotion.
Seeing Ruth's attitude so strong, Mrs. Bookett had to change her mind and said with a miserable face, "Ruth, if Mother doesn't force you, you know how things are with us. If you don't marry Carl, what will happen to us?"
Before her mother could finish her sentence, Ruth interrupted, "I'll earn enough money to support you. I don't believe it. We can't live without that Carl!"
"How are you going to make money? What kind of work will you do? Do you know how much it costs to live the way we do?" "Demanded Mrs. Bookett.
Her mother's question caught Ruth by surprise, for she had not thought of it before, and it was not her fault. How could a noble lady like her have thought of it before? And she doesn't really know what kind of work she can do.
But even so, rose still crustily skin of head insisted: "although I don't know what can I do now, but I believe that as long as I find, to try, to strive, must be able to find suitable for their work, perhaps the job bring income is unable to maintain our life now, but must be happy than now!"
For Ruth's answer, Monet silently praised her, which was indeed very beautiful, but it was a pity that at least she did not have the chance to carry out the plan. Sure enough, Mrs. Bookett said coolly: "Honestly, Ruth, I really want you to go out into the world and get your head cut out so you can see how naive you are. But it's a pity that Carl wouldn't give you the chance, even if I gave it to you. Do you know where the Carpathia is going? I'll tell you, New York, and Carl happens to be an American. And he's got more power there than you can imagine, so as his wife, you don't have a chance to do that. You just have to see if you can get off this boat!" With that, Mrs. Bookett turned and left.
Booker after she left, Ruth whole person slumped in a chair, because she knew her mother actually did not cheat, Carl such rich people don't say the United States left behind in the wild (frontal, European aristocrats eyes at that time, the United States is like this, even in UK law perfect realm, still have the privilege of the bottom is hard to imagine, oneself after what should I do? Do you really want to live in that suffocating environment all your life? But in that case, what was the point of the chance that Jack had sacrificed his life for himself?
As Ruth's mind filled with these wild thoughts, Monet leaned over and whispered: "Booker miss, in fact you do not have to be so pessimistic, this Mr. Carr energy not small, but is far not enough to only cover day, so you now exactly hypocrisy obedience, such as in New York you getting the chance to escape again, this is, after all, the ship sent to hold off as long as Mr Mouth, you haven't chance to escape, but when you get to New York He can't see in all directions!"
After listening to Monet's words, Ruth's eyes gradually lit up. Yes, now she doesn't have the chance, but when she gets to New York, she will certainly have the chance. Then she will try to get a ticket back to London.
"Thank you, Mr. Monet, I know what I have to do!" Ruth thanked Monet.
In a few minutes two young men and women, both of whom seemed very capable at first sight, came up to Ruth and said, "Hello, Miss Bookett. Mr. Carr has sent us here to take care of you. Now please come back with us to first class for lunch."
Both of them were ready for Ruth to say no, and even thought about how to force her back with as much grace as possible, when Ruth stood up, tied her hair, held her head high and said, "Lead the way!"
This makes two people can not help but stunned for a moment, how this suddenly become so talkative? When they were in a daze, Ruth was a little annoyed and said, "Why are you still there?"
Two people just react to come over now, stretch out hand to bend to signal a way: "forehead, good, your side please!"
Ruth gave Monet a slight nod before she left, and then followed the two.
"Well, after all, Miss Bookett, with her mother and her fiance, has a choice between going back to a life of plenty and suffocation, or freedom and poverty, while we have nothing and no choice at all!" Looking after Ruth, Wendy sighed softly.
"Just now Miss Bookett said a very good word, as long as willing to look for, to try, to work hard, will be able to find a suitable job and belong to their own happiness!" "Monet advised, and then, after a moment's hesitation, added:" And if I'm not mistaken, there should soon be an insurance or hush money that will keep us in New York for the time being!"
"Hush money? ! What does this mean?" Wendy asked, puzzled.
"You may not be too concerned about the current politics at ordinary times, miss Howard this aspect of information, like the Titanic ship appeared such a huge accident, casualties, so many people, the outside world public opinion will be very large, but also simply can not hide, so the Titanic's white behind the Morgan group and his company will be to find a way to guide public opinion, will this matter And the first step is to buy us these survivors, so the best is the most direct means of buying is to give us a sum of money!" "Monet explained.
Actually this is not monai nonsense, in fact in those days white star company is done so, the actual situation is not like what the movie plays so orderly and gentleman......
