[The Claverings by Anthony Trollope]@TWC D-Link bookThe Claverings CHAPTER IX 26/30
Why should Count Pateroff call on him? Why was he in England? Whence had he learned the address in Bloomsbury Square? To that last question he had no difficulty in finding an answer. Of course he must have heard it from Lady Ongar.
Count Pateroff had now left London.
Had he gone to Ongar Park? Harry Clavering's mind was instantly filled with suspicion, and he became jealous in spite of Florence Burton.
Could it be that Lady Ongar, not yet four months a widow, was receiving at her house in the country this man with whose name her own had been so fatally joined? If so, what could he think of such behavior? He was very angry.
He knew that he was angry, but he did not at all know that he was jealous.
