Some evasiveness in this fellow's demeanor awoke Gray's suspicion. A sudden telephone call. The owner's absence when he expected a purchaser. Probably somebody else was after the property. It was decidedly worth while to wait. Gray was unaccustomed to inattention, incivility, and had anybody except "Bob" Parker put him in this position he would have resented it.
"Don't you like Cadge?" she asked, checking with shy evasiveness the words I would have spoken. "She can do anything sing, talk modern Greek and Chinese Cadge is wonderful." "I know some one more wonderful. Helen, when did you begin to sing?" "I don't sing; to-night was the first time I ever tried before any one but Kitty. Did I sing well?" "I can't believe you're real! I can't " "Don't!
I did not know whether to laugh and compare it to the National Baseball League's trafficking in "big names," or to hunt for some sinister danger sign in it. But, as a result of my ponderings, I decided to visit Benda at The Science Community. I wrote him to that effect, and almost decided to change my mind about the visit because of the cold evasiveness of the reply I received from him.
Much as, under your teaching, I hate convention, I hope it IS that, not the other terrible alternative!" Even at this obvious moment for candour Sue could not be quite candid as to the state of that mystery, her heart. "Put it down to my timidity," she said with hurried evasiveness; "to a woman's natural timidity when the crisis comes.
The apparent evasiveness of the reply caused Charity's indignation to overflow. "I don't know why you should. I could understand Orma Fry's doing it, because she's always wanted to get me out of here ever since the first day. I can't see why, when she's got her own home, and her father to work for her; nor Ida Targatt, neither, when she got a legacy from her step-brother on'y last year.
"Oh yes, you have," he went on, pleasantly, interested by her transparent evasiveness. "You must think something of me. Now, what is it?" "Do you mean do I like you?" she asked, frankly, looking down at the big mop of black hair well streaked with gray which hung about his forehead, and gave an almost lionine cast to his fine face. "Well, yes," he said, with a sense of disappointment.
It preferred to believe that the submarine commander acted contrary to instructions rather than accept the alternative assumption that the Austro-Hungarian Government "failed to issue instructions to the commanders of the submarines in accordance with the laws of nations and the principles of humanity." Its deliberate evasiveness was so direct as to be almost an affront.
An expression of pain and disappointment crossed his face; he ground his teeth fiercely. "Don't marry her, father; you will kill me if you do!" "Must you alone have license?" He resumed his cigar, which he picked up from the floor. "It would seem that we have not known each other. What evasiveness there is in our natures! Your mother was the soul of candor, yet I am convinced I never knew her."
I knew you'd both like " Some quality in Tom's voice, some reluctant evasiveness to his eyes, bore a belated message to the younger man snapped his chain of thought dried the words upon his lips. Into his eyes leaped a sudden, strained incredulity. Sharply, he cried, "What do you mean?" Then, after an instant, "Why did he want to see me?"
"And I felt it was necessary to you, to your talent. How could I feel that without ever hearing your music? I did." "Don't I seem to belong to Djenan-el-Maqui?" "I've never seen you there," she answered, with a deliberate evasiveness. Claude looked at her for a moment, then looked away over the immense view. It seemed to him that this woman was beginning to understand him too well, perhaps.
