Is she very fond of you, Everard ?" "I think that I am rather in her bad books just at present," Dominey confessed.
"I wonder! I am very observant, and I have seen her looking at you sometimes--Of course," Rosamund went on, "as I am not really your wife and you are not really my husband, it is very stupid of me to feel jealous, isn't it, Everard ?" "Not a bit," he answered.

"If I am not your husband, I will not be anybody else's." "I love you to say that," she admitted, with a little sigh, "but it seems wrong somewhere.

Look how cross the Duchess looks! Some one must have played the wrong card." Rosamund's farewells were not easily made; Terniloff especially seemed reluctant to let her go.

She excused herself gracefully, however, promising to sit up a little later the next evening.
