Excerpt: ... going," Gwenda said, "because I want to. If I stayed I wouldn't marry Steven Rowcliffe, and Steven Rowcliffe wouldn't marry me." "But-I thought-I thought--" "What did you think?"

But he heard from Alice that she would be back at four. And it was Alice who told Mrs. Gale that when the doctor called again he was to be shown into the study. He had waited there thirteen minutes before Gwenda came to him. He looked at her and was struck by a difference he found in her, a difference that recalled some look in her face that he had seen before. It was dead white, and in its whiteness her blue eyes, dark and dilated, quivered with defiance and a sort of fear. She looked older and at the same time younger, as young as Alice and as helpless in her fear.
