Chapter 231
Chapter 231
Karl?Could it be that Cal Hockley?
The unlucky fiancé of the heroine?
Thinking of this, Lin Lin also sympathized with this gentleman.
He is handsome, well-born, rich and powerful, and quite capable, so why can't he be compared to a wandering and down-and-out painter.
This painter likes to gamble, steals things, and immorally follows someone else's fiancee in someone's new car for deep body traffic. Isn't he afraid that something will be left on someone's new car?
And why does such a person get the favor of the heroine?
Said that Jack likes to gamble, and the ticket is proof.It is said that Jack stole things, based on the man's coat that the owner played with his son.
Since ancient times, if you don't ask yourself, you are stealing.
Well, she didn't do this kind of thing less.But she is used to being strict with others and being lenient to herself, and she automatically ignores herself on this point.
Anyway, Lin Lin didn't have any romantic cells at all, and had no interest in a poor man who would instigate a lady to spit in public.
Lin Lin, who lives in the house, raises the body, and has no cell for art, really can't appreciate the personality charm of the hero Jack.
Carl was wearing a three-piece iron gray suit, standing not far from Lin Lin, his whole body was filled with the aura of 'I am an elite'.
Lin Lin still had a little cream on the corner of her mouth, and she just tilted her head to look at Carl.
When Carl walked over, there was a hint of amused in his heart.
It's the kind of pure, good mood without any purpose.
It turned out that he didn't need to spend money on Rose to make him feel so good.
Walking calmly all the way, Karl didn't stop much.After seeing Carl's face clearly, Lin Lin continued to eat her dinner with her head down.
I thought it was just two people who didn't meet each other, how could I expect that after one night, they opened the door at the same time.
Nodding to each other, Lin Lin walked out calmly.
To live in first class, you have to observe some aristocratic habits.
This is the case with changing clothes every day.
This is Lin Lin's third piece of clothing since she got off the boat yesterday evening.
Carl, who has long been accustomed to the frequency of Rose's changing clothes, has a rare memory of the characteristics of Lin Lin's clothes.
The first set, the same oriental style.The second set, elegant lady temperament.And today's third set, Mei Hong's dress with white beads, is full of enthusiasm and a little bit of charm.
Looking at him with a touch of alienation and... sympathy in his eyes.
Alienation, he can understand.But sympathy?
Where does this sympathy come from?
Seeing an unknown woman who had taken the maid for a walk on the deck, standing at the door of room b56, Karl shook his head, forgetting all the inexplicable things.
Rose lived in b54, and he should have woken up by now, and he hoped to spend breakfast with her.
The engagement ceremony will be held when they arrive in the United States, and he hopes to have a good relationship with her before that.
He is 30 years old this year, and he has already reached the age of starting a family.But this year Rose is only 17 years old, this age, this age, alas.
I have some opinions on Rose's various behaviors in my heart, but I feel that it is only because she is still young and not very sensible.
But as soon as he entered the room, he saw Rose's face that had a hint of a smile just now fell down the moment she saw her.This feeling of being rejected and hated by others is quite bad.
Carl suppressed the anger in his heart, so as not to get angry and scare Rose, but the effect was not very good.
Because during the meal, Rose saw his disdainful expression when he ordered, which completely excited Carl.
Carl threw the knife and fork heavily on the table, then tore off the napkin, and left the room without looking back.
He shouldn't have extravagant hopes for such a careless breakfast time.
Walking all the way to the deck angrily, I saw that the decks of the second and third class cabins were full of people.
Carl stood at the fence and slammed the fence hard with his fist.
Can't lose my temper, can't lose my temper, can't, can't...
Carl memorized a few sentences of the rules of manners in the upper class in his heart, and then he turned around and prepared to go back to his room to deal with the piles of business affairs.
Then he saw the look of the neighbor who lived across the door looking optimistic.
Carl and Lin Lin looked at each other, and walked forward unexpectedly, "Miss, I don't know what to call you?"
Seeing the embarrassment in Carl's eyes, Lin Lin also knew that it was not kind to stand here and look at others in distress, so Lin Lin, who we thought was gentle and kind, said in Chinese even more kindly, "Nice to meet you, I My surname is Lin, my first name is Lin. My English name is Linda. But, do you understand Chinese?"
Carl twitched his lips. He didn't believe that the girl in front of him was a person who didn't understand English, but it showed a non-cooperative attitude, which was really annoying.
Pursing the corners of his mouth, Karl bent slightly at fifteen degrees, and said softly, 'Sorry for the interruption'.Then he turned and went back to the room.
Women are creatures that are really unreasonable...
After being pissed off by Rose first, and then choked by Lin Lin, Carl returned to his room, his office efficiency was almost zero.
"Le Jie, go and check the identity of the lady who lives in the opposite room."
"Yes, sir." Leger, who had been standing beside Carl, turned and left when he heard the order.
Carl was still upset watching Leger exit the room.
Annoyed by Rose's capriciousness, annoyed by White Star Company's greed and blindly taking, and annoyed by the sudden appearance of a strange woman.
For some reason, that woman's every move, every frown and smile can attract his attention.
She was not Rose, who pleased him when she behaved.Nor was she Rose, who made him cranky when he was wayward.
She is like a secret, making him want to know the answer all the time.
Just like just now, she could clearly understand English, but she used the language that was obviously Huaguo to perfuse him.
There is also a mischievous little villain in the eyes.
It's only natural to be bad, and she looks like she is reasonable.
What a nasty girl.
Thinking of the girl's wavy black hair being blown up by the sea breeze, Carl's body felt unspeakably hot.
When the sitting clock in the study struck twelve, Carl's face fell instantly.
He actually wasted all morning because of an inexplicable woman who appeared out of nowhere.
How many business affairs can he handle and how many contracts can he sign and approve in a whole morning?
Carl shook his head, then turned away from the window to get back to his desk to save his productivity.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he walked to the table, Leger knocked on the door and came in.
Regarding Lin Lin's identity, no one on the ship had ever seen Lin Lin except for a little information from the crew registration office.
But they probably don't know people who can live in first class.
But the problem is that they really don't know each other and haven't seen them.
Thinking of Lin Lin's identity as an Oriental, she no longer wondered.
So when Leger told Karl the information he had inquired about, it was entirely conceivable that Karl was dissatisfied with this information.
Linda Lin, a native of China, boarded the Titanic by mistake at around [-] o'clock yesterday evening.
"That's all?" Looking at Leger who finished the information of a person in one sentence, Karl couldn't believe that his most powerful butler and assistant would provide him with such a thing.
Leger was also a little embarrassed, "Sir, no one has seen her. Whether it is British or French, oh, no one in the United States has seen her.
She hadn't even had any luggage when she got on the boat, nothing but an oddly shaped backpack.Last night, she made up for the boat ticket and hired the senior exclusive maid on board, and even bought the clothes for the past two days from the tailoring room where she was wearing urgently..."
Holding a cigar, Carl did not light it, but just played it back and forth in his hand. Turning his head and glanced at the window, Carl asked Leger with some uncertainty, "...Have you heard of the Marilyn?"
Leger was taken aback by the question, and shook his head slowly after a while.
Karl was thinking a lot right now, about Lin Lin's life experience, about Lin Lin's origin.
"Sir, could it be?" Leger thought of some young women who, in order to get a better life and get more money and jewels, would make themselves a better status in the upper class and get close to rich and status men, After defrauding a certain amount of wealth, he immediately ran away.
Of course, some are commercial espionage.Stealing commercial secrets through beauty or disrupting and intervening in some major company decisions to reap huge profits.
At this moment, Leger thought of this.
And he also hinted at Karl.
Carl frowned, subconsciously unwilling to believe it.
That person is so stubborn, how could the nobility and pride in his gestures be flattering?
Her pride was different from Rose's.
If Rose's pride is the kind of strong-willed and hard-working, then that person's pride is a calm and leisurely contentment.
One is the pride given by others, the other is the pride of pretending, and the other is the pride that comes from self-confidence. These are all different.
It can be seen that her life is not depressed.It's not like Rose, who is obviously passionate, but is desperately suppressing her own nature.
That kind of insisting on letting myself know that she doesn't like me is not a kind of escape and submission.
Carl thought of this, feeling a little bad again.
"Go and see what Rose is doing. If there's nothing wrong, tell her to change and let's go to the restaurant for dinner."
It's past twelve o'clock now, let Rose change clothes now, it is estimated that they should be able to reach the restaurant before one o'clock.
Touching his empty stomach, Karl, who didn't eat anything in the morning and only drank a cup of coffee, regretted his behavior of setting his breath in the morning.
He really doesn't care about his body.
"Okay, sir." Leger also noticed the time at this moment, so he bowed and retreated.
Seeing Leger go out, Karl put the cigars in the cigarette case, he is now planning to give up work completely.
Not knowing what came to mind, Karl just hesitated for a moment, then put on his suit jacket and walked out of the room.
The man lived in the room opposite him.
Maybe that person is going to lunch too.
Carl didn't expect that the fleeting idea would be realized when he opened the door and went out.
Lin Lin wandered around the boat all morning, and then took out her camera to take random pictures.
After taking photos all morning, Lin Lin returned to the room accompanied by Ruili.
She needs to take care of her appearance before going to the restaurant for dinner.
So she, who was also going to eat, met Karl at the door of the room.
At this point in time, you don't need to think about what the other party is going to do when you come out of the room.
Lin Lin nodded with a smile, wondering if they are what people often say 'foodies are similar in magnetic field'?
Otherwise, why do you always meet before and after meals?
She is delicious, is this also a foodie?
I really didn't see it.
