Wife in Name Only

CHAPTER XXXIX
9/13

Why did Madaline believe that you knew all about her story when you knew nothing of it?
That secret, I suppose, you will keep to yourselves ?" "Yes," replied Lord Arleigh.

"The truth is, we were both cruelly deceived--it matters little by whom and how.'" "That part of the story, then, will never be understood," said Lord Mountdean.

"The rest must be made public, no matter at what cost to our feelings--there must be no privacy, no shadow over my daughter's name.
You give me your full consent, Norman ?" "Certainly; I think your proposal is very wise," Lord Arleigh replied.
"Another thing, Norman--I do not wish my daughter to go home to Beechgrove until her story has been made known.

Then I will see that all honor is paid to her." So it was agreed, and great was the sensation that ensued.

"The Arleigh Romance," as it was called, was carried from one end of the kingdom to the other.
