"Don't you begin anything like that. I have never spoken a word to Jean Benton, and as far as I know she has never said anything about your cowardly deed to her. She is as true as steel in her love for you, and my advice is for you to act like a man, go to her, be true to her, and marry her as you promised you would that night you hurled her into the harbour." "You are lying," Ben blustered.
Hastings gave his attention to Crown. He was certain that the man, balked by Sloane's refusal to "talk," would welcome an excuse for leaving the room. "Let me see you a moment, will you?"

The rain fell in torrents.
"I wish you'd go to her, Jean, and tell her what you have done. Sooner or later she is sure to find it out." But Jean Brent was in no mood for this advice. It caused her anger to blaze afresh.

Blithers, plainly irritated by the young man's obstinacy in declining to be "dropped" at his hotel by the Blithers motor. "I shall come to your office at eleven to-morrow morning, Mr. Blithers," said Robin, his hat in his hand. He had bowed very deeply to Mrs. Blithers. "But that's not right," blustered the financier.
