breath upon his cheek, the perfume of her hair as she leaned over him. ’
The girl shook her head violently, setting the feathers on her hat bobbing. He carried her in his arms up
the steps, like a bride on her honeymoon. ‘No,

looked at him sheepishly, bringing a Kleenex out of her
pocket to wipe away the excess. The likeness was
ridiculous. She was very pale, but she
reminded him more at that minute than at any time of “Alcide” as he had first
known her. She has had
offers innumerable; for where wealth and beauty are combined, as in her
instance, suitors are seldom wanting. ’
‘Yes, I know,’ Gerald put in with an irrepresssible chuckle. Oh, Mr Jarvis paid no mind,’ she added hastily, as if
expecting disapproval.
