The little matter of business which we were discussing can be concluded with your partner." Laverick turned toward Zoe. Their eyes met and he read their message of terror. "You are coming back to your own rooms, Miss Leneveu," he said. "You must let me offer you my escort." She half rose, but in obedience to a gesture from Streuss Morrison moved near to them.
He and I might not have seen things the same way, and I am sure that what I am doing is for the best. If I were you, Miss Leneveu, I think I wouldn't worry any more. Soon you will hear from your brother that he is safe in New York, and I think I can promise you that the trouble will never come to anything serious." "Why have you been so kind to him?" she asked timidly.
Directly, however, another man had been accused, the matter appeared to him to be altogether different. He had come forward the moment he had heard of Laverick's ARREST, to offer his evidence. While the opinion of the court was still undecided, Laverick's solicitor called Miss Zoe Leneveu. A little murmur of interest ran though the court. Laverick himself started.
"Alas! m'sieur, Mademoiselle is just the same," he replied in response to Hugh's eager inquiry. "The police have gone, but Doctor Leneveu is still upstairs." "Have the police searched the garden?" inquired Hugh eagerly. "Yes, m'sieur.
The magistrate had received a communication direct from the Home Secretary concerning your case." "I am very grateful indeed," Laverick declared. "I tell you I think I am very lucky. I wish I knew what had become of Miss Leneveu. The usher told me she left the court before we came out." "I asked her to go straight back to her rooms," Bellamy said.
Just before noon Hugh went to the telephone in the hotel and inquired of Cataldi the progress of his mistress. "She is just the same, m'sieur," came the voice in broken English. "Santa Madonna! How terrible it all is! Doctor Leneveu has left, and Doctor Duponteil is now here." "Have the police been again?" "No, m'sieur. Nobody has been," was the reply.
