He begged that Mrs. Richford would let him take everything off her hands. Wearily Beatrice crept down to dinner with a feeling that she would never want to eat anything again.

A handsome, foreign-looking woman came up to her and sat down on the same settee.
The prospect of the run to Fontainebleau evidently filled her with delight. She joined Saltash in the vestibule after the meal, clad in a light blue wrap they had purchased that morning. He went to meet her, a quick gleam in his eyes; and a man to whom he had been talking a slim, foreign-looking man with black moustache and imperial turned sharply and gave her a hard stare.
