When father went to New York in the evening, as he often did, not returning to Sea Gull Manor till late, and sometimes staying away all night, he used to say as an excuse to mother or Ena: "I'm going to the club." After a while it was taken for granted, and he made no excuse at all.
Then Ena Rolls's brother couldn't be all bad! "Well, I'm in the business, too. This must be the place the girl is going to. She shall be cured, I promise you. And when she's well she shall have work in the country to keep her strong and make her happy. Will that please you?" "Yes," Win answered. "But it doesn't please me to feel you're doing it for that reason." "I'm not. Only partly, at least.
I'm afraid she won't get her money back if this storm lasts. Who could gaze at living models?" "I could, if they're as beautiful as your brother says," replied Lord Raygan, a tall, lanky, red-headed Irishman with humorous eyes and a heavy jaw. He was the first earl Ena had ever met, but she prayed fervently that he might not be the last.
No more was the Lady in the Moon. They got rid of each other quickly and skilfully.

I'll wait and see how things go to-night. And then maybe I'll toss up a penny." "We ought to go down now, anyhow," said Eileen, still very thoughtful. "Come along, then, and face the music." "You go. I'll follow in a minute.
"I am going for a walk now." He leaned quite close to her. "Alone?" he asked suggestively. She swept away without even looking at him. He shrugged his shoulders as he resumed his seat.
