Not one farthing more will you have from 'ome--not one farthing! And you may think yourself lucky if you still '_ave_ a 'ome. For all I know, you'll have to earn your own living, and I'd like to hear how you mean to do it. As soon as I get back I shall write to Mrs.What's-her-name and tell her that nothing will be paid for you after the week that's due and the week that's for notice. It may have more serious results than you think for.' 'I've thought all I'm going to think,' replied the girl. |
