Alone in her happiness Constance Asper despatched various brief notes under her gold-symbolled crest to sisterly friends; one to Lady Wathin, containing the single line: 'Your prophesy is confirmed. Dacier was comfortably able to face his Club after the excitement of a proposal, with a bride on his hands. He was assaulted concerning the article, and he parried capitally.
'Do not imagine that his persuasions undermined your Tony. I am subject to panics. 'Was it your husband? 'I had a visit from Lady Wathin. She knows him. She came as peacemaker. She managed to hint at his authority. Then came a letter from him of supplication, interpenetrated with the hint: a suffused atmosphere. Upon that; unexpected by me, my let me call him so once, forgive me! lover came.
Quintin Manx, the millionnaire, was an acquaintance of the new Judge and titled dignitary, Sir Cramborne Wathin, and she visited Lady Wathin, at whose table the report in the journals of the Nile-boat party was mentioned. Lady Wathin's table could dispense with witty women, and, for that matter, witty men. The intrusion of the spontaneous on the stereotyped would have clashed.
Dacier is also in town, Lady Wathin said, with an acid indication of the needless mention of it. 'We have not seen him. She invited Redworth to meet a few friends at dinner. 'I think you admire Miss Asper: in my idea a very saint among young women; and you know what the young women of our day are. She will be present. She is, you are aware, England's greatest heiress.
Cramborne Wathin was invited to dinner. 'You will meet my dear friend, Mrs. Warwick, she said, and the reply was: 'Oh, I have heard of her. The formal consultation with Mr. Cramborne Wathin ended in an agreement to accept Lady Dunstane's kind invitation.
'Remember, it was nearly mine. It soon will be mine. I heard yesterday from Lady Wathin . . . well, if it pains you! 'Speak on, said Diana, resigned to her thirsty ears. 'He is not expected to last through the autumn. 'The calculation is hers? 'Not exactly: judging from the symptoms. Diana flashed a fiery eye into Dacier's, and rose.
Until he drops down in the street, as his doctor expects him to do some day, she will continue her course; and even then... An adventuress desiring her freedom! Lady Wathin looked. She was too devout a woman to say what she thought. But she knew the world to be very wicked. Of Mrs. Warwick, her opinion was formed.
As one of the good women of the world, Lady Wathin in departing was indignant at the tone and dialect of a younger woman not modestly concealing her possession of the larger brain. Brains in women she both dreaded and detested; she believed them to be devilish. Here were instances: they had driven poor Sir Lukin to evil courses, and that poor Mr. Warwick straight under the wheels of a cab.

But a world yet more deficient than she, esteemed her cordially for being a bulwark of the present edifice; which looks a solid structure when the microscope is not applied to its components. Supposing Percy Dacier a dishonourable tattler as well as an icy lover, and that Lady Wathin, through his bride, had become privy to the secret between him and Diana?
