The Three Partners

CHAPTER III
51/73

She's wonderfully equipped for the world, and, you see, I'm only 'lucky,' as everybody says, and I dare say part of my luck was to have got her.

I'm very glad she's a friend of yours, you know, for somehow I fancied always that you were not interested in her, or that you didn't understand each other until now.

It's odd that nice women don't always like nice women, isn't it?
I'm glad she was with you; I was quite startled to learn she was here, and couldn't make it out.

I thought at first she might have got anxious about our little Sta, who is with me and the nurse at Hymettus.

But I'm glad it was only a lark.
