CHAPTER TWENTY-FIVE “You don’t mean you're going to leave us in the lurch?” Wingate asked, in a hurt voice. “I can’t believe you’d do a thing like that.” "I’m rot leaving you in the lurch,” Lent told him plainly. “Mr. Gerstenfield admits I’m a terrific gamble and there’s no certainty about my future success. You genj tiemen —your whole lives are wrapped up in pictures. With me, it’s different I only want one thing in life. I want to be happy. The pictures demand too much of me. There are ten thousand other girls waiting to step into my shoes. Let them have the chance. I’ve never had a chance for happiness in my whole life until now—and I’m going 1 to take it.” By the time she had finished 1 speaking, the power of Gerstenfield's eyes had forced her, at last, to look straight at him. She was iron-bound in her determination to refuse anything he might demand. He held no authority of reward or punishment over 1 her. Fame, money, ambition were all obliterated in the warm glow that filled her whole being. It was as though she stood on the threshold of a new life pulsating with unearthly joy. Nevertheless, there existed somewhere in her a little area of fear, a black spot of foreboding that might spread and tarnish the glistening ecstasy of her whole beautiful dream. “When did you fall in love?” demanded Gerstenfield. His question was like a sharp knife pressing against her white I flesh. The smile on Leni's lips did not diminish, although something of its warmth escaped. “Last night” “Who’s the man?" “It’s a private and personal matter. Must I tell?” She looked away from him, but her gaze was forced to return to his dark eyes as the steel is draw’n to the magnet, t Leni resisted looking at those eyes for the unaccountable reason they held a force that chilled her inner warmth. As long as she did not look at Gerstenfield, she felt, everything would be all right—she could do as she pleased. Somewhere within him lived a power dangerous to the free determination of her own destiny. . . . "I must insist on knowing who the man is,” said Gerstenfield evenly. Wingate thrust his hands into his .pockets and walked to a window. Hi s artistic sense of proportion told him he was entirely superfluous at the moment. Leni had been clutching a wisp of handkerchief in her palm. A tremor of childish helplessness came over her. The hand relaxed and the flake of chiffon fluttered to the floor. “His name is Lucky Cavanaugh,” she said, oddly surprised at her difficulty in giving it out. “Please be- 1 lieve me, this is no whim. It is—it is my life.” For just a moment, Gerstenfield’s lids closed over his burning eyes and then opened again. In the instant Leni tore her gaze away. Ned Wingate, standing by the window, suddenly became motionless as a painted portrait of a man. Leni waited for somebody to say something. She did not know whether she had silenced them completely or whether they were merely gathering strength to attack her decisiorf. In the fragment of a second she thought she detected something like pity in Gerstenfield’s eyes. “Lucky Cavanaugh is a wonderful man.” she said as if to explain everything. Gerstenfield turned toward Win-

gate with a dry cough in his throat. “Get that newspaper out of my overcoat in the hall," he said. “Newspaper! What’s a newspaper got to do with this?” asked Leni quickly. “It has everything to do with it, Miss Luncska,” Gerstenfield said in a voice utterly lifeless. “A woman picture star is a fool to fall actually in love. We always make a mistake when we surrender our happiness to other people. We are not like other people—the public. As long as love with us is an emotionless recreation it does no harm. If we take it too seriously it ruins us.” “I don’t know what you’re talking about,” said Leni, suddenly white and ghostly. Wingate had returned to the room with the folded newspaper in his hand, his clown mouth was moving with a silent flexible smile. “Show it to her,” said Gerstenfield. The man opened the paper and placed it in Leni's white outstretched hands. LUCKY CAVANAUGH HELD FOR MURDER The headline was a black rush of letters stampeding across the entire top of the front page. No sound broke from her lips in this devastating instant. She stood up, gripping the newspaper in her two hands, her eyes trying to drink in the sub-heading. Gerstenfield watched her without a word or emotion. “Rotten break!” said Wingate with a shade of casual sympathy. “It looks like Cavanaugh quarreled with his sweetheart and shot her dead in his own apartment. At any rate, they’ve got the girl’s body and he’s locked up. If you ask me. I’ll say it’s a lucky thing it was an-'

other girl instead of you that got that bullet in her heart last night. We’ll be lucky if we can keep your name out of this mess.” A strength apparently from outside her body came to Leni’s aid and held her steady and erect while she read the brief and hurried printed account. She remained standing, filled with emptiness; she felt a hollow weakness in her joints. Then she sensed nothing at ail and, as she started to topple, Wingate caught her in : his long arms and held her up like i a limp child. ... t The blackness surrounding Leni melted and turned to light. With returning consciousness came a clarity of intelligence as bright and definite as sunlight. She knew she had fainted, and why Wingate had placed her upon a sofa and was rubbing her wrists i with a handkerchief which he dip- | ped into a glass of water At the ! bottom of the sofa stood Gersten- ; field watching, it seemed, for her I to open her eyes so he couid begin i talking. As her physical strength came I back she sat up. “Now that you’ve had that over | with,” said Gerstenfield without a trace of sympathy, “we’U get back to business. Are you capable of listening to me?” “I’m going to get to Lucky just as soon as I can,” said Leni. She sat on the edge ot the sofa, arched her spine inward and threw her head backward as she breathed in a deep draught of air. The color began coming back to her cheeks “Forgive me for fainting, gentlemen. Will you go with me, Ned ? Will you take me to where he is locked up?” Wingate glanced at his superior. Gerstenfield shook his head. (To Be Continued) Copyright. 1932, Oy Robert I erry Shannon ' Distributed by King FcatMiee Syndicate, Inc.
