It was half past three in the afternoon on a wonderful August day. The huge steamer Queen Elisabeth sailed across the Irish Sea. He had left New Orleans five weeks ago. He was soon to moor in Liverpool. More specifically, the next day. Mary and William Williams, the wealthy millionaire couple, sat on the upper deck and let the afternoon sun shine on their faces. They talked quietly and grew louder and louder.

“And you really want to pass on part of your assets to her ?!” Mrs. Williams got excited.
“But darling, it's only because it would make you impoverished otherwise,” Mr. Williams tried to reassure her.
Mrs. Williams smiled sourly. She knew what a womanizer her husband was. But she couldn't resent him either. He just looked too attractive and he couldn't help it.
