"For Lorraine's sake," she said very simply, and then left him. He turned with a stifled groan, and, leaning his elbows on the mantelpiece, buried his face in his hands. Yet in that painful hour, out of all the tragic mistakes of her life, Lorraine might have gleaned this gladness.
Armies could be annihilated, granite and steel would be as tinder before a bomb or torpedo of picric acid dropped from the clouds. On the 10th of August, a little after five o'clock, Jack left Lorraine on the terrace at Morteyn to try once more to see the marquis for Lorraine's sake.
He likes a little amusement, the same as you and Baby Hermon." She turned away as she spoke, and did not see the swift deepening of the look of inquiry, nor a certain strange expression that flitted across Lorraine's face; and almost immediately the door opened, and Alymer Hermon walked in unannounced. "Hullo, Hal!" he exclaimed "it's quite a long time since I ran into you here."
Swan, however, was not troubling himself over what Lone would think, or even what Warfield was thinking. Contrary to Lone's idea of him, Swan was tired, and he was thinking a great deal about Lorraine, and very little about Al Woodruff, except as Al was concerned with Lorraine's welfare. Swan had made a mistake, and he was humiliated over his blunder.
He said her eyes got so big it made him think of the times she used to imitate the wolf in Red Riding-Hood and scare us 'most to death when we were young.

"How will you do it?"
They go around gabbling their heads off about every little thing, and adding onto it until you can't recognize your own remarks after they've been peddled for a week. You've maybe seen places like that." "Oh, yes." Lorraine's eyes lighted with a smile. "Take a movie studio, for instance." "Yes. Well, you being a stranger, you would get all the worst of it.
Be more careful, for Lorraine's sake." "But I will but did the note reach her?" His aunt smiled. "Yes. I took the responsibility upon myself, and there will be no gossip." Jack leaned over and kissed the amused mouth, and the old lady gave him a little hug and told him to go and walk on the terrace. The groom was already there, holding a note in one hand, gilt-banded cap in the other.
Mavis had struck up a friendship with Miss Lindsay and Lorraine Forrester, and often went to see them at the studio which they had temporarily hired. Lorraine's principal branch of art was sculpture, and she was modelling a bust of Morland, who came readily for sittings, though he had refused point-blank to act model for his father.
