Trumps

CHAPTER LXXIX
6/8

The whole world has known it and seen it.

And I came to give you a chance of saving your name by showing to the world that my uncle came here familiarly because you were to marry his nephew.

You refuse the chance.
There was a time when you would have flown into my arms, and now you reject me ...

And I shall have my revenge! I warn you to beware, Mrs.
Lawrence Newt! I warn you that my saintly uncle is not beyond misfortune, nor his milksop partner, the Reverend Gabriel Bennet.

I am a man at bay; and it is you who put me there; you who might save me and won't.
