I'm awfully glad to see you. Come in here " and perforce he had to follow. "The doctor's upstairs I mean Sir Joseph Pixton. Fanny was determined to have him, and he very kindly came, though of course he's not a child's doctor. He's annoyed because Fanny won't have trained nurses; but I don't suppose anything would make any difference.
There was sharp chagrin, reproachful dismay, in Bellair's voice. Elwyn remembered that in old days Jim had always hated being alone. "Won't you stay and hear what Pixton says? Or or are you in a hurry?" Elwyn turned round. "Of course I'll stay," he said briefly. Bellair spared him thanks, but he began walking about the room restlessly. At last he went to the door and set it ajar.
And when Bellair came back from accompanying the old doctor to his carriage, there was a smile on his face the first smile which had been there for a long time: "Pixton thinks you're my brother! He said, 'I hope your brother will manage to stay with you for a bit. Now I'll go up and see Fanny. Pixton is certainly more hopeful than the last man we had " Bellair's voice had a confident ring.
