But what is the reason for his refusal of these job opportunities?

I don’t know. He said he wasn’t interested
Doesn’t he want to find something to do?
I don’t think so.
Dr. Nelson poured a glass of whisky again, took a long drink and stared at the two friends in front of him.
Do you want to listen to my thoughts? I dare say I’m not very good at judging people, but I’ve been practicing medicine for more than 30 years, and I know a little about human nature. I think it’s a war. Larry feels a different person after he comes back. Maybe something happened to make his personality different.
What is it?
I didn’t know that he avoided talking about wartime experiences. Dr. Nelson turned to ask Mrs. bradley, Louisa, did you talk to him?
She shook her head.
No, when he first came back, we kept asking him to tell stories about his adventures as a soldier, but he always smiled and said that there was nothing to say and he would not share anything with Isabel. Isabel tried many times and asked nothing.
This conversation continued for a while, and the conclusion was still unsatisfactory. Soon after, Dr. Nelson looked at his watch and said that he had to go first. I wanted to leave together, but Eliot insisted that I stay. After Nelson left, Mrs. bradley quickly apologized and felt that she was good at talking about personal matters for fear that I would feel bored just now
But I’m really worried about it, she said
Louisa Mao Mu has a good sense of proportion. Don’t worry about telling him anything. I don’t think Bob Nelson Larry is close, but I think Louisa had better not tell him about some things.
Eliot, don’t talk.
You’ve said so much, why don’t you just finish it once? I don’t know if you noticed Gray Mathurin at dinner just now.
He’s so big that it’s hard not to notice.
Gray was Isabel’s lover. When Larry joined the army, he took care of Isabel very much. He also fought the war a little longer, and they probably got married. Gray actually proposed to her, but she was noncommittal. Louisa guessed that she wanted to wait until Larry came back before making a decision.
Why isn’t Gray a soldier? I asked.
He hurt his heart while playing football, although it was not serious, but the army didn’t dare to do the opposite. After Larry retired from the army and came home, he had no chance. Isabel directly refused his proposal.
I don’t know how to react at the moment, but I can continue to talk to Eliot in silence. His wise appearance and Oxford accent are like a senior official.
Larry is a good boy, of course, and it’s kind of him to join the army. But I’m a good reader. He smiled meaningfully and then hinted that he had become rich by buying and selling art. This is the only time I remember that he said so, or I wouldn’t have held a pile of government bonds in my hand. I don’t think Larry would be a great man. He has neither property nor status. Gramaturin is different. Not only is the Irish name loud, but there are also bishops, dramatists and several outstanding soldiers in the family.
How do you know these things? I asked
It’s not difficult for ordinary people to know, he said casually. In fact, I happened to look up the English dictionary the other day and happened to see their family name.
I immediately remembered that Sophie said at dinner that Grandpa Gray was an Irish pauper and Grandma was a Swedish waiter, but she always felt that she should mind her own business, so she didn’t mention Eliot to them.
We all know Mr. Henry Maturin for many years. honest and frank is very rich and Gray is about to enter a company in Chicago. He wants to marry Isabel, and from the woman’s point of view, it is just right for me to fully agree with this marriage. So must Louisa.
Eliot, you have been away from the United States for too long. Mrs. bradley said with a wry smile on her face. You forgot. Now girls don’t look at their mothers or uncles’ faces when they want to get married.
There’s nothing to be proud of. Louisa Eliot has a sharp tone. Based on my 30 years’ experience, I can tell you about marriage. It’s definitely far better to arrange according to the status and wealth circle than to get married because of two of a kind. If Isabel is in France, the only country in the world, she will marry Gray without saying anything for a year or two. She can still find Laridan lover Gray and have a mistress in a luxury apartment. Isn’t it all big?
Mrs. bradley is also a wise person. She can’t help looking at her brother in front of her.
What’s the fly in the ointment? Eliot is that the new york Troupe has been here for a long time, and life and entertainment are indispensable. Gray’s senior apartment is afraid that no one can stay, which must be inconvenient for all parties.
Eliot smiled.
Greco is seeking a position in new york. After all, living in new york is probably the only choice.
Not long after that, I left, but I didn’t know Eliot had asked me if I would like to have lunch with his Mathurin father.
Henry is the most powerful businessman in America. He said, I think you should know him. He has been in charge of our family investment for many years.
I didn’t particularly want to know him, but I readily agreed to his invitation by refusing.
