"It's a little too complicated for me to take in all at once, I confess and, if you won't think me rude, Celia, I think I'll be getting along towards Knightsbridge." Mrs. Milvain rose at once. "She has condoned Cassandra's conduct and entangled herself with Ralph Denham," she repeated. She stood very erect with the dauntless air of one testifying to the truth regardless of consequences.
A day or two later, Milvain wrote to Mrs Yule, and told her that he had seen Reardon; he did not describe the circumstances under which the interview had taken place, but gave it as his opinion that Reardon was in a state of nervous illness, and made by suffering quite unlike himself. That he might be on the way to positive mental disease seemed likely enough.
As if I couldn't borrow a few pounds until all my own comes to me! Dora Milvain can lend me all I shall want; it won't make the least difference to her. I must have my money very soon now. At about half-past eleven Mrs Yule went downstairs, and entered the study. 'If you are coming to speak about Marian, said her husband, turning upon her with savage eyes, 'you can save your breath.

Her curiosity as to what Milvain had to say was mingled with an anxious doubt whether it was not too late to put on fresh coals; already the room was growing very chill, and this appearance of inhospitality troubled her.

You shall come and see me, and we will be the same to each other as always. But father has treated me too unjustly. I can't live near him after this. 'He doesn't mean it, sobbed her mother.

Milvain acquainted him with the fact of John Yule's death, and with its result so far as it concerned the Reardons.
'He has no reason to have, Mr Milvain. 'No, no. Fadge is an offensive fellow, when he likes; and I fancy he very often does like. Well, I must make what use of him I can. You won't think worse of me because I write for him? 'I know that one can't exercise choice in such things. 'True. I shouldn't like to think that you regard me as a Fadge-like individual, a natural Fadgeite. Marian laughed.

It was whilst the negotiations were still pending that she made her call upon Maud and Dora Milvain; Reardon did not know of her intention to visit them until it had been carried out. She mentioned what she had done in almost a casual manner.
