Nothing of the scandal of the night seemed to have transpired, for no one even hinted at anything about it. Gritzko was still very pale, but appeared none the worse, and the atmosphere seemed to have resumed a peaceful note.
If you went off tonight instead of coming to Moscow, it might create a talk; what we want is to prevent a scandal, to hush everything up. None of these men will tell, and your name will not be dragged into it. And if we go on our trip amicably as was arranged it will discountenance rumor. Gritzko and Boris are quite friends again.
But Gritzko sparkled with brilliancy and seemed to lead the entire table. There was something so extremely attractive about him in his character of host that Tamara felt she dared hardly look at him or she could not possibly keep up this cold reserve if she did!
If Gritzko should not return on Tuesday. If she should never see him again. What what would happen if she too like poor Mary Gibson Next day the Tuesday at about eleven o'clock, a servant in the Milaslávski livery arrived with a letter, a stiff-looking, large, sealed letter. She had never seen Gritzko's writing before and she looked at it critically as she tremblingly broke it open.
"If he weren't so wild; but don't you think he has a frightfully savage expression, Jack?" "If you are intending to play with him, old girl, take my advice, you had better look out," and he laughed his merry laugh as they stopped because the piano stopped. Meanwhile the Prince had left the room. "Gritzko has gone to telephone for a Tzigane band," Princess Sonia said.
Be careful with Gritzko tonight, my child." When they were seated waiting for the dance to begin Tamara noticed that the Prince was very pale, and that his eyes, circled with blue shadows, seemed to flame. The certainty grew upon her that some mysterious tragic thing had taken place; but, frightened by the Princess' words, she did not question him. She hardly spoke, and he was silent, too.
"His mother was a saint almost to those people at Milasláv; they worshipped her. She was very beautiful and very sweet, and after her husband's death she spent nearly all her life there. She started schools to teach the peasants useful things, and she encouraged them and cared for their health; and her great wish was that Gritzko should carry out her schemes.
"It will depend upon how much it angers Gritzko. It could come to mean anything bloodshed, a scandal, or merely bringing things to a crisis between them. Let us hope, for the latter." "Indeed, yes" "You must remember, for an Englishwoman it would be very difficult to grasp all the possibilities in the character of Gritzko.
And just at the end I had a most interesting kind of experience; I came upon what looked like a woman, but turned out to be a mummy and later froze into a block of ice!" "Gritzko!" they called in chorus. "Can anyone invent such impossible stories as you!" "I assure you I am speaking the truth. Is it not so, Madame?" And he looked at Tamara and smiled with fleeting merry mockery in his eyes.
Stephen! how cruel of you to bring it back to me," she said; "but this is quite different they are free and it is my dearest wish that Tamara and Gritzko should be united." Then she continued in another tone. "I think you are quite wrong in any case. My plan is to throw them together as much as possible he will see her real worth and delicate sweetness and they will get over their quarrelling.
