He told me so." "And it wouldn't matter to you, Daphne, if you did think a man had married you for money ?" Daphne had risen, and was pacing the drawing-room floor, her hands clasped behind her back.

She turned a cloudy face upon her questioner.
"It would matter a great deal, if I thought it had been only for money.
But then, I hope I shouldn't have been such a fool as to marry him." "But you could bear it, if the money counted for something ?" "I'm not an idiot!" said the girl, with energy.

"With whom doesn't money count for something?
Of course a man must take money into consideration." There was a curious touch of arrogance in the gesture which accompanied the words.
"'How pleasant it is to have money, heigh-ho!--How pleasant it is to have money,'" said Mrs.Verrier, quoting, with a laugh.

"Yes, I dare say, you'd be very reasonable, Daphne, about that kind of thing.

But I don't think you'd be a comfortable wife, dear, all the same." "What do you mean ?" "You might allow your husband to spare a little love to your money; you would be for killing him if he ever looked at another woman!" "You mean I should be jealous ?" asked Daphne, almost with violence.
