Go, Victor; trust me, believe me, neither your honor nor your love shall suffer at our hands. Postpone the driving-party, or make my excuses; I shall not leave my rooms to-day. To-morrow, if it be possible, the truth shall be yours as well as mine." He bowed coldly annoyed, amazed, and went. What did all this mean?
"Do I intrude?" he asked. "Are you busy? Are your letters very important this morning? If so " "Not important at all. Come in, Victor. I have been wishing to speak to you of the invitations for next week's ball. Is it concerning the driving-party this afternoon you want to speak?"
"There is to be a driving-party to Eastlake Abbey, after luncheon," she said; "you are to be carried down to the barouche and ride with your father and mother, and Lady Helena Charley and Captain Hammond for your cavaliers." "And you?" "Sir Victor drives me." "Alone, of course?" Trixy says, with a last little bitter sneer. "Alone, of course," Edith answers coldly.
Then she opens the door and disappears. But the driving-party did not come off. The ruins of Eastlake Abbey were unvisited that day, at least. For while Edith and Trixy's somewhat unpleasant interview was taking place in one part of the house, an equally unpleasant, and much more mysterious, interview was taking place in another, and on the same subject.
