And to think that she was in love with him! It was almost too good to be true, and he longed to laugh outright. What a story he would have to relate when he got home. Miss Arabella was lying just where Rod had left her when John Markham and the boy entered. She gave a little squeak of joy when the stranger stepped to her side. "I knew you would come back," she murmured.
The first day passed without any especial happening, but the next day the two set out for a walk, soon after breakfast, and did not return until just before six. "You were not here at one o'clock for lunch," Miss Fenler said. "Where were you?" "I lunched with a friend," said Patricia, and Arabella drawled, "So did I."
I can live without going to Greshamsbury." "But it is not to be endured that she should dare to cast an imputation on my darling." "On me, uncle? She casts no imputation on me. Frank has been foolish: I have said nothing of it, for it was not worth while to trouble you. But as Lady Arabella chooses to interfere, I have no right to blame her.
With a merit so exalted, you may have punishment more than enough for your involuntary fault in that husband. I would not have you be too sure that their project to seize you is over.

He hurried home, intending to confront Arabella with the letter he had received, and then lock her up in her room. But she had gone out an hour before. Pacing the floor in a state of strong excitement, he awaited her return until the shadows of evening began to fall.
Mary was quite ready to go hand in hand with Lady Arabella and the rest of the Greshamsbury fold in putting an end, if possible, to Frank's passion: she would give no one a right to accuse her of assisting to ruin the young heir; but she could hardly bring herself to admit that he was so very wrong no, nor yet even so very cruel.
