She saw that he was studying her, and she laughed a little uneasily, looking all the time into his eyes. "Shockingly overdressed, ain't I?" she said. "We were going straight to Carmarthen House, you know. Come and sit in this corner for a moment, and order me some coffee. I suppose there isn't any less public place!" "I fear not," he answered.
