Kirby-Levellier, in her house, has denied Lord Brailstone admission at her door, we can affirm. He has written to her vehemently, has called a second time, has vowed publicly that Mrs. Levellier shall have her warning against Lord Fleetwood. The madness of jealousy was exhibited. Lady Arpington pronounced him in his conduct unworthy the name of gentleman. And how foolish the scandal he circulates!
Nevertheless, Lord Fleetwood mounted the steps to his house door, still listening. His 'Asmodeus, on the tongue of the world, might be doing the part of Mentor really. The house door stood open. Fleetwood said something to Gower; he swung round, beheld the ladies and advanced to them, saluting. 'My dear Lady Arpington! quite so, you arrive opportunely.
One of the rare women who never pout or attitudinize, she could fling her glove gracefully one might add, capturingly under every aspect, she was a handsome belligerent. The words he had to combat pleased his memory. Some good friend, Lady Arpington probably, had instructed her in the art of dressing to match her colour.
She seemed placidly acquiescing. 'You have seen the boy? 'Twice to-day. We were having a conversation just now. 'We think him very intelligent. 'Lady Arpington tells me you do the honours here excellently. 'She is good to me. 'Praises the mother's management of the young one. John Edward: Edward for call-name. Madge boasts his power for sleeping. 'He gives little trouble.
Notwithstanding a dislike of the Dowager Countess of Fleetwood, Lady Arpington paid Livia an afternoon visit; and added thereby to the stock of her knowledge and the grounds of her disapprobation.
'It 's a thing to mend as well as one can, Lady Arpington said. 'I am not inquisitive: you had your reasons or chose to act without any. Get her away from that place. She won't come to me unless it 's to meet her husband. Ah, well, temper does not solve your problem; husband you are, if you married her.
'Add the postscript: you find it was perfectly possible. 'I have to learn more than I care to hear. 'Your knowledge is not in request: you will speak in my name. 'Will you consult your lawyers, Russett, before you commit yourself? 'I am on my way to Lady Arpington. 'You cannot be thinking how serious it is. 'I rather value the opinion of a hard-headed woman of the world.
Such was his need of one, that the wife he crushed had to be proposed for sacrifice, in the mind of a lady tending strongly to side with her and condemn her husband. Lady Arpington had counselled Carinthia to stay where she was, the Fates having brought her there. Henrietta was too generous to hesitate in her choice between her husband's sister and the earl.
The report of Admiral Baldwin Fakenham as having died in the arms of a stranger visiting the house, hit nearer the mark than usual. He yielded his last breath as Gower Woodseer was lowering him to his pillow, shortly after a husky whisper of the letter to Lady Arpington; and that was one of Gower's crucial trials.
You will do well, Henrietta, to take up your quarters with her a day or two. She can hold her position a month. Longer is past possibility. A shudder of the repulsion from men crept over the younger lady. But she was a warrior's daughter, and observed: 'My husband, her brother, will be back before the month ends. 'No need for hostilities to lighten our darkness, Lady Arpington rejoined.
