[Can You Forgive Her? by Anthony Trollope]@TWC D-Link bookCan You Forgive Her? CHAPTER XXVIII 26/27
Oh, Alice, I wish you were going to stay with us!" "We are leaving this in a week's time," said Mr Palliser. "Of course we are," said Lady Glencora.
"With all my heart I wish we were not.
Dear Alice! I suppose we shall not meet till we are all in town." "You will let me know when you come up," said Alice. "I will send to you instantly; and, Alice, I will write to you from Gatherum,--or from Monkshade." Alice could not help looking around and catching Miss Palliser's eye. Miss Palliser was standing with her foot on the fender, but was so placed that she could see Alice.
She made a slight sign with her head, as much as to say that Lady Glencora must have no opportunity of writing from the latter place; but she said nothing. Then the carriage was announced, and Mr Palliser took Alice out on his arm.
"Don't come to the door, Glencora," he said.
