'I would have avoided mentioning it in your presence, said Lightwood to Bella, delicately; 'but since your husband mentions it himself, I must confirm his strange admission. 'Quite true. But it was not my object or my interest, said Rokesmith, quietly, 'to be traced out.
To Hexam's son, or daughter? Resolved speedily, to the daughter. But it would be safer to avoid seeing the daughter, because the son had seen Julius Handford, and he could not be too careful there might possibly be some comparison of notes between the son and daughter, which would awaken slumbering suspicion, and lead to consequences.
'You cannot have been prepared, my dearest, for such a discovery as that this mysterious Mr Handford was identical with your husband? 'No, John dear, of course not.
