Then interrupting herself, and laying a glove on Laura's arm: "I've got more to tell you." She compressed her lips and stood off from Laura, fixing her with a significant glance. "Me? To tell me?" "Where are you going now?" "Home; but our cars are stopped. We must go over to " "Fiddlesticks! Wessels all of you are coming home and dine with me."
'My dear child, and her mother kissed her warmly, 'I don't want to hide anything from you. You are my only home-daughter now. Then recollecting her prudence, she proceeded, 'You are old enough to understand the distress this insincerity of poor Laura's has occasioned, and now that Amy is gone, we must look to you to comfort us.
Pendennis was not in truth a very worthy man, nor did he make a very good husband; but the girl's love was so beautiful, and the wife's love when she became a wife so womanlike, and at the same time so sweet, so unselfish, so wifely, so worshipful, in the sense in which wives are told that they ought to worship their husband, that I cannot believe that any girl can be injured, or even not benefited, by reading of Laura's love.
Besides, the physician of the convent himself would most likely have betrayed it through a spirit of revenge. I returned sadly to my miserable hole in Laura's house.
This twelfth year of Laura's loneliness, and the thirtieth of her life drew on apace, and the season approached that had seen the unhappy adventure for which she so long had suffered. Christmas promised to be rather wet than cold, and the trees on the outskirts of Laura's estate dripped monotonously from day to day upon the turnpike-road which bordered them.

This ominous discretion helped to convince me that he must have surprised, by the most dishonourable means, the secret of my application in Laura's interest to the lawyer; and that, having now assured himself of the private manner in which I had received the answer, he had discovered enough to suit his purposes, and was only bent on trying to quiet the suspicions which he knew he must have aroused in my mind.
