Then Julie bowed her head into her hands, and in the silence and darkness of their box burst into tears. And so, for the first and last time, Peter heard her really weep. He said foolish man-things to comfort her. She looked up at last, smiling, her brown eyes challengingly brave through her tears, "Peter, forgive me," she said. "I shouldn't be such a damned fool!
Oh, that can I well believe, and I cry the messer's pardon. For when the mind is taken up with affairs of state, it is distasteful to listen even for a moment to light talk of maids and jewels." Again I eyed him challengingly; but he, with face utterly unconscious, was sorting over his treasures. I made up my mind his queer talk was but the outlandish way of a foreigner.
Laurencine. But she has a sister named Lois. What do you know about her?" Lucas spoke challengingly, as if George had trespassed on preserves sacred to himself alone. He had not yet admitted that it was merely Mrs. John Orgreave who had put him in the way of Irene Wheeler.
There'll be nothing but winter, and that's a long way off, to bring us back. It's what I've always wanted to do, from the time I can remember. How goes away every year, and he's promised this once to take me along." Suddenly, almost challengingly, she turned, facing the man her companion. "Won't it be fine?" she queried abruptly.
Harley was right in what he believed, the circumstances of his present disappearance go to prove. He learned too much about something called Fire-Tongue." Wessex spoke the word challengingly, staring straight into the eyes of Nicol Brinn, but the latter gave no sign, and Wessex, concealing his disappointment, continued: "You know more about Fire-Tongue than you ever told Mr. Paul Harley.
He got to his feet with lithe swiftness of movement, and sprang close to the desk. He bent his head forward challengingly, to meet the glare of his accuser's eyes. There was no flinching in his own steely stare. His nerves had ceased their jangling under the tautening of necessity. "You did!" Burke vociferated. He put his whole will into the assertion of guilt, to batter down the man's resistance.
He glanced at his watch. "Go where?" It was like Mrs. Clayhanger to ask a question to which she knew the answer. Her ardent eyes, set a little too close together in the thin, lined, nervous face, burned upon him challengingly. "I told you! I have to report at Headquarters before noon." "But you don't mean to say you're going to leave your wife like this! She's very ill." "I'm bound to leave her."
That is the one thing, in all the world, that for your sake as well as mine, I could never do. No, no; impossible." "Why, not for my sake, since I desire it so earnestly?" A bright flush had risen in Leo's cheeks, and she threw back her small head challengingly. For a moment Beryl wavered. Could she bear to wound that proud spirit?
Dill turned the collar of his coat up a bit farther or fancied he did so and looked questioningly at Billy. "Yuh gave me leave to advise yuh where yuh needed it," Billy said almost challengingly, "and I'm going to call yuh, right here and now. If yuh take my advice yuh won't go making medicine with old Robinson any more. He'll do yuh, sure. He's asking yuh double what the outfit's worth.
This is an outrage! On what charge do you arrest this lady?" "On the charge that she has guilty knowledge of the murder of Herbert Whitmore," returned Britz. "It's absurd," railed Luckstone.
