But it seems to me you are acting as thoughthe
young lady very much belonged to you.
You manage all those boats andpeople
splendidly.
This involved the giving of orders both precise
andprompt by someone who would be obeyed. Thats the best thing Ive heard about Mrs
Rafferty yet.
On a particular morning Richard scanned the lake
eagerly with his glass. If shebelonged to me I should tell my son to shoot you. Shes
going to tell her son to shoot me, TJgo, because Ive taken DonnaVirginia away from
her.
What would those fine ladies say to that? She led
the way out through the window, lighting a cigarette as she went. And his stooping
figure passed on, his stupid, leering eyes on the ground.
Several times he hadthought of going to see
Hohenthal.
IVInevitable reaction followed the excitement of
the preceding days. For himself, he intended to remainat Aquafonti; as to that his
mind was made up.
Certainly he had neverconsidered it in connection
with this girl.
He began talking about other things, and they got
up and strolled slowlyback to the shore.
Elinor went back into thehouse without saying
good-bye to her.
People began departing, the Wensleydalesamong the
first.
Thats to punish you for not seeing about your
boat.
Supposing Iasked you why your late wife divorced
you!
The job suited her,and she did it admirably.
