No, Robert D'Alton, you will not become respectable and leave me out in the cold, insulting and spurning me at every turn with your petty offers of money. I have sworn to have my revenge, and by now that the opportunity offers, I will have it, too!" She had worked herself up to state of uncontrollable fury. Her eyes rolled wildly, and she looked like one demented.
