Our Mutual Friend

CHAPTER 11
24/26

For I think I like you for your difference from all around me,' said Georgiana with a smile of relief.
'We must be going with the rest,' observed Mrs Lammle, rising with a show of unwillingness, amidst a general dispersal.

'We are real friends, Georgiana dear ?' 'Real.' 'Good night, dear girl!' She had established an attraction over the shrinking nature upon which her smiling eyes were fixed, for Georgiana held her hand while she answered in a secret and half-frightened tone: 'Don't forget me when you are gone away.

And come again soon.

Good night!' Charming to see Mr and Mrs Lammle taking leave so gracefully, and going down the stairs so lovingly and sweetly.

Not quite so charming to see their smiling faces fall and brood as they dropped moodily into separate corners of their little carriage.
