The Guilty River

CHAPTER X
4/10

Again, and again, and again, I say it"-- she stamped on the ground in the fervor of her conviction--"he hates you with the hatred that never forgives and never forgets.

You think him a good man.

Do you suppose I would have begged and prayed of my father to send him away, without having reasons that justified me?
Mr.Gerard, you force me to tell you what my unlucky visit did put into his head.

Yes, he does believe--believes firmly--that you have forgotten what is due to your rank; that I have been wicked enough to forget it too; and that you are going to take me away from him.
Say what he may, and write what he may, he is deceiving you for his own wicked ends.

If you go to drink tea with him, God only knows what cause you may have to regret it.
