He wondered vexedly why his mother always had this power of making him lose control of himself. He hated to lose control of himself. It upset him, and blurred that vision which he liked to have of himself as a calm, important man superior to ordinary weaknesses. "Jill and I are engaged, and there is an end of it."
He broke out vexedly: "I don't see what my imaginative work has got to do with the trivialities of ordinary life. As a matter of fact," he added, after a pause, "the psychology in a novel is all imagination, and it's the same imaginative faculty that has been amusing itself with Jaffery and this unqualifiable lady." "All right, my dear man," said I, pacifically.
Perkins? Lady Jocelyn asked, and then rallied her neighbours. Miss Carrington looked at her vexedly, for the fiendish Perkins was checked, and the Countess in alarm, about to commit herself, was a pleasant sight to Miss Carrington. 'The worst of these indiscriminate meetings is that there is no conversation, whispered the Countess, thanking Providence for the relief.
I merely asked what your answer would be if I did." "It comes to the same thing!" she muttered. "Pardon me, not quite! I told you I was putting you to a test. That you failed to stand my test is the conclusion of the whole affair. We really need say no more about it. The matter is finished." She bit her lips vexedly, then forced a hard smile.
We should have saved you the trouble of coming here had we known where you were staying in London." Dr. Panton felt, not unreasonably, annoyed.

It might be anything. Hoddan had said he had a secret. This might be it. Don Loris vexedly tried to contrive some useful skulduggery without the information to base it on. Fani looked at the spaceboat with bright eyes.
Probably the Censor at this stage did not interfere much with his activities, content enough to allow fanciful descriptions of Napoleonic strategy to go to the outer world. But, in my experience, facts, if one ascertained something independently, were not treated kindly. "Why not?" I asked the Censor vexedly about one message he had stopped. "It is true."

"And wandering damsels," she interrupted, with a laugh that sounded to me like the music of silver bells. A minute later, on the edge of the brook, she said vexedly, "And it's not frozen over." But I had already noticed that fact with great elation. "Not more than six inches, you say," she muttered, and made to step in.
