She flirts and then cheats with a stranger despite being engaged - with her planned marriage just a scam for money and security as her family is now destitute, something she keeps from her fiance. She ends up choosing the stranger over both her fiance and mother, abandoning the latter in a lifeboat. When the ship sinks, she never once offers a spot on the door or to take turns with Leo, causing his death. Years later, she marries for convenience, while still in love with Leo - something I'm sure her husband would love to know. Lastly, after the crew searching the wreckage of the Titanic is gracious enough to give her room and board, and despite knowing the resources and time they spent looking for the gem, she selfishly throws it overboard. What a terrible human being!

LOL Lighten Up Francis!
