[Titanic] Harbor

"Erica told me before that Blake is a pseudonym, and Mrs. Dalton doesn't have to worry about it." Tom said with a smile: "The reunion of mother and daughter is really touching."

"Thank you so much." Mrs. Dalton said so, but her eyes were fixed on Erica, and she walked quickly in Erica's direction.

At the same time, Erica was walking towards them.Her expression is very joyful, and there is also some panic. These superficial emotions fully express the fear and surprise of a child who ran away from home after seeing his family.

"Oh, my poor Erica. Why don't you contact the family if you are safe and sound! Look at you, you have lost a lot of weight."

Mrs. Dalton's words stiffened the smile on Erica's mouth.In her memory, the original body had always been on a diet in order to maintain her figure and even make herself thinner.And during the month or so she lived outside, although her clothes were a little worse, she did eat more than double the amount of food she used to eat, so she would lose weight, and that would be a ghost!

"Mom, I'm having a good time here." Erica and Mrs. Dalton held hands together, and her mood at this moment was really indescribable.

—Three men and a woman stood behind Mrs. Dalton.

Green, Tom, Willow, and Willow's female companion, they all became the people standing behind Mrs. Dalton!

Such a strange combination of characters formed a beautiful landscape in the banquet. The eyes of the public kept drifting towards them. Some reporters who were invited also pressed the shutters one after another to record the news.

Each of these three men has the qualifications to be the headlines of the news. Standing together, the reporters who came to the banquet can already foresee the sales situation of tomorrow's newspapers.

Mrs. Dalton raised her eyebrows because of this. She didn't want the news that Erica had been missing for a while to be widely reported by the media. After all, it was not a glorious thing for a girl who was about to get married.

But Erica has no such worries.

If any of the three men in front of him made a move, the news could be limited to the ball.What's more, none of these three people would be willing to let themselves be part of the lace news at the charity gala.It would be a blow to their public image.

Erica's guess was not wrong.The three gentlemen in front of them have not made a statement yet. The hotel staff and the organizer of the banquet have quickly dispersed these reporters and sent special personnel to confirm whether the photos have been deleted.

Privileged class!

Erica saw the way Mrs. Dalton's eyes lit up—the Daltons hadn't had a chance to touch these things yet.Those reporters are always the natural enemies of businessmen. Every time Mr. Dalton faces the press releases of those reporters, he will have a very headache.

Several people left the banquet hall under the leadership of the hotel staff.Since the center of the problem is Erica, and the Erica referred to here is the same person, then they can find a place to explain things clearly, and that's fine.

As for the theme of the charity banquet, that is, the donation part, things that can be settled with a check, they don't care that much.

Along the long stairs, several people walked to the second floor in silence. Willow dismissed his female companion, because the following things are not suitable for unrelated people to know.

Erica walked at the end, she closed the door, and then saw several men and her mother sitting on the sofa in the room.The sofa was already full, so she could only stand.

Or maybe it was just an interrogation of myself'.Erica scratched at the hem of her skirt.She didn't worry much, but she couldn't afford a reputation of being unrepentant.

"Erica, it's enough for us to bother Mr. Tom. I think you'd better go back with me, and then we'll have a good chat about why you suddenly disappeared."

Mrs. Dalton didn't shy away from saying this frankly in front of outsiders. She just hoped to solve all the troubles quickly, and then send Erica to her wedding scene.

"I don't want to go back, Mom."

"why!"

"I have a good life here. If I go back, I can only stay in the manor for the rest of my life, being a lady who doesn't even know the working day and the rest day. Now, I work with my hands and earn money. With my own living expenses, I feel very fulfilled."

"This is really ridiculous! Since you were a child, we sent you to a private school, and I paid to teach you how to sing and play the piano, how to write good handwriting, and how to be a qualified lady. I never wanted to let you You go... go to work!"

"Excuse me, ma'am. What Miss Erica does is not physical labor. What she pays is her wisdom, and she gets paid for it. It's very meaningful, I can guarantee it." Tom smiled Inserted a sentence.

"I don't think so. Marriage is the most important thing in a girl's life. Since Miss Erica's fiancé has made preparations in London, there is no room for her as a bride to escape." Green made up his mind to have a relationship with her. Tom played the other way.

Leaving Erica in New York and letting her work for Tom is a terrible thing without thinking about it.

Green can be sure that Erica has outstanding talent in a certain aspect, and was discovered by Tom.

Tom was the kind of guy who wouldn't stop until he drained his employees.His phone company was just a cover. When he first recruited employees, he would let them feel the comfortable atmosphere of the phone company, but after signing specific contracts, he would assign those talented employees to different departments. In the position, make the best use of everything.

Just last week, an employee of one of Tom's companies passed away due to exhaustion.

No amount of money can buy life.Tom is so nervous about Mrs. Dalton now, afraid that she will bring Erica back to London, it must be because he has not had time to sign a formal contract with Erica.

"You can't decide whether I will stay or not." Erica interrupted Willow who was about to speak.She found that she only dared to interrupt Willow, after all, persimmons are soft.

She puffed up her mouth childishly after seeing Willow being interrupted, a bit like... the mouse in Green's house.

"I will definitely go back to London, but before that, I think I still have some things to do. If I don't do this well, I don't think I can get married with peace of mind."

"Is there anything you can do after you marry the baron? You can set the honeymoon location in New York." Mrs. Dalton hoped to change Erica's mind.

"Mom, we all know that if I return to London, I will not be able to decide many things. I sincerely beg you, let me realize this wish."

She turned to look at the three men.There is very little emotional factor to allow them to watch a play here, the main reason is that they want to restrain each other and cause some trouble for others by the way.

From this point of view, these three people really look like three generations of old, middle-aged and young people.

"I sent a telegram from home on the Titanic. I said that life on board is good. I think you should have received it." Erica looked into Green's eyes, and she continued: "But I realized that I had made a serious mistake. I was the only one in the telegraph room at the time. And I saw a few transcribed documents by the telegraph, and I took these documents as practice materials. It was sealed and sent out."

When Erica spoke, her eyes were fixed on Green. She didn't let go of Green's facial expression, but to her disappointment, Green's expression never changed.

She could only go on to say: "Recently I read in the newspaper that Mr. Green has received a court summons. If I had known that my borrowing the telegraph room from him in the first place would cause him to go to court, I would not have done that."

Willow was sitting on the side, already stunned by the huge amount of information in Erica's words.

The outside world has always thought that Green is a very good businessman, he accepts when he knows it is good, and makes a lot of money when everyone is losing money.

However, there have been different voices from the outside world. Some people say that Green is loved by God.It is doomed for him to sell stocks in advance, and another theory, which is more common, is also the reason why Green was summoned by the court-they said that the sinking of the Titanic Ha is also a conspiracy theory. CUHK made a fortune.

If the charge is proven, Green will be sentenced to hang for five or six crimes.

Therefore, Mr. Green's state is actually not that optimistic.

Especially under such rumors and rumors, he also injected large-scale capital into the New York market to seize market share, which brought a great impact to some local capitalists.

The New York capitalists headed by Tom secretly reached a secret agreement to snipe the funds brought by Greene in New York and share them in proportion. With their efforts, the case was finally tried in New York.

Remember, all of this is based on conspiracy theories.

Now someone told them that the reason why Green made a lot of money had nothing to do with him, but because someone sent his documents by mistake, which led to the whole thing happening.

This is really bloody enough.

"Erica, I think it's admirable for you to testify bravely for others." Tom first praised Erica, but then he changed the subject, "Let's not count it for now, you What kind of damage will this do to your reputation? People outside will definitely spread rumors about your mysterious relationship with Mr. Green. More importantly, when White Star stock was at its peak, Green prepared the sell-off documents. An unexplainable thing."

There was something warning in Tom's words.

After weighing it, he obviously believed that bringing down Green was more urgent than getting Erica's work contract.

Green is much younger than him, but this man is very sophisticated in business.Green's previous capital injection has already had a certain impact on his business. If this person is allowed to continue to operate, it may crush his business empire and build his own on the ruins.

This is absolutely unacceptable to Tom.
