"By the earliest train possible, mon ami. Adieu, then, au revoir." "Au revoir, ma chérie," answered the gentleman, turning back to the hotel, but pausing before he had taken a dozen steps. "Ma chérie, you will not forget my business at Madame Bertrand's?" "But no, mon ami, it shall be attended to without fail." "Ma chérie " "Mon ami " "You must hasten, or you will miss the train."
"How do you know what it costs?" He frowned at her suddenly. "You'll accuse me of being benevolent next. But I'm not benevolent, and I'm not going to be. I might be to Lady Jo, but not to you, ma chérie, never to you!" His grin burst through his frown. "Come! Sit down! I'll get you a drink." She turned to the deep settee, and sank down among tigerskins with a sigh.
I was selfish enough to show you the earthly part of my love the part that dies, just as our bodies die, setting our spirits free. For see, chérie, it is not the material part that endures. All things material must pass, but the spiritual lives on for ever. That is why Love is immortal. That is why Love can never die."
Her kinship to this elegant, dark-haired lady had only recently been explained, and Pauline was trying to accustom herself to being addressed as "ma tante" and "tante chérie" with other endearing and embarrassing terms of regard. But the time was going on and Miss Clairville turned from the window; a very little of Angeel was all she could stand just now.
He put his hand caressingly upon it, and slid his fingers beneath the loose lace that the open wrap exposed. "Dear," he said, "I want you to-night." "To-night, chérie?" she questioned. "Yes, now," he said hotly. "And why not? You give to other men why not to me, Louise?" She freed herself with a quick gesture, and, brave heart, she laughed merrily.
"Eef mademoiselles, your aunts, should get to hear " "Oh, I won't tell." "Then, yes, ma cherie, I think at times all men are fools ... and I think it is also good at times to make a fool of man. For why? Because it is revenge. "Ah, ma cherie, I who have been three times wed I tell you I often think the old-world view is right. Man is the natural enemy of a woman. "He is not to be trus'.
"So you took those steps of the archevêché." "Chère, we'll tell you! Yvonne and me, avter all those many 'appy year' with you, we think we want ah, chérie, you'll pardon that? we want ad the laz' to live independent! So we go ad the archbishop. And he say, 'How I'm going to make you that? You think to be independent by biccoming Sizter' of Charitie of Mercy of St. Joseph?
Yes, he knew. It was what Mordaunt himself had suspected, and loyally he entered the breach on his friend's behalf. "Chérie pardon me that is not a good wish not worthy of you. That which he did was most merciful, most brave, and he did it himself because he would not trust another. I wish it had been my hand not his. Then you would have understood."
"Then I will say this; remember always that you are not doing these things for gratitude, nor praise. That has always been understood, hasn't it?" "Yes, yes, of course. But but it's hard to have abuse, ma mère!" "They don't mean it for you, chèrie. Are they not all nice to you, personally?" "They treat me well enough, yes. But not as if they really care for me."
Polkington had offended, recognised the Christian duty of forgiveness, and called upon her to see how she bore up. The Grayson girls, whose dance Chèrie had refused at the beginning of the month, came to see her.
