She thought, vaguely, as she had many times thought before, of cutting adrift from the entire clique, but there was no return of that sincere emotional desire to reform which she had experienced on the day that Monte Irvin had taken her hand, in blind trust, and had asked her to be his wife.

Monte Irvin." "Monte Irvin speaking. Anything to report, Brisley?" Irvin's deep, rich voice was not entirely under control. "Yes, sir. The lady drove by taxicab from Prince's Gate to Albemarle Street." "Ah!" "Went up to chambers of Sir Lucien Pyne and was admitted." "Well?" "Twenty minutes later came out. Lady was with Sir Lucien. Both walked around to old Bond Street. The Honorable Quentin Gray "
Gray leapt forward, and the pair of them bent to the task. There came a dull report of parting mechanism, more sounds of splintering wood... and the door rolled open! A moment of tense silence, then: "Is anyone inside there?" cried the Inspector loudly. Not a sound came from the dark interior. "The lantern!" whispered Monte Irvin.
Irvin, I don't think for a moment that men of that class are suspected of being concerned. Indeed, I don't believe any active collusion is suspected at all." "Lord Wrexborough thinks that Scotland Yard hasn't got an officer clever enough for the dope people?" "Quite possibly." "I take it that he has put up a secret service man?"

Admitted Mrs. Monte Irvin to Sir Lucien's flat on night of murder. Sir Lucien and Mrs. Mareno claims to have followed instructions. After waiting near club for an hour, learned from hall porter that Sir Lucien had not been there that evening.
Irvin drove from home to the corner of old Bond Street a quarter of an hour ago and told me to wait, then came back again and drove round to Vine Street to fetch the police. They're inside now." Even as he spoke, with excitement ill-concealed, a police-sergeant came out of the doorway, and: "Move on, there," he said to Seton and Gray. "You mustn't hang about this door."
Are you remaining?" "I am dining at the club," answered Pyne, "but I can wait until you return." "As you wish," jerked Gray. "I don't expect to be long." He walked rapidly to the outer door, which opened at his approach and closed noiselessly behind him as he made his exit. Mrs. Monte Irvin entered the inner room.
Bowing gravely, "The Sheikh el Kazmah awaits," he said, speaking with the soft intonation of a native of Upper Egypt. It now became evident, even to the infatuated Gray, that Mrs. Irvin was laboring under the influence of tremendous excitement.
