Dartmouth continued to watch her for a few moments, and concluded that he would like to know her, even if she were a girl and an ingenue. She was fascinating, apart from her beauty; she looked different from other women, and that was quite enough to command his interest.
"How convenient!" she commented. "And you can come up here and talk to anybody you like just as if it were a telephone?" "To anyone in the company's service," amended Adams.
