SYNOPSIS Pretty, young Patricia Warren unwillingly accepts the attentions of Bill McGee, a racketeer, fearing his wrath should she refuse. One night. Bill is shot by a rival gangster while with Patricia. Patricia runs home in terror. Her stepmother, fearing a scandal, puts her out. Patricia is forced to make her living by playing professional bridge. Impressed by the girl’s beauty and skill. Julian Haverholt, the bridge expert, makes her his partner. She moves to his palatial home where he introduces her as his niece. Pat is indignant until Haverholt explains he was thinking of her reputation. Patricia is secretly in love with Clark Tracy, the polo player, but Clark is engaged to Marthe March, society girl. Pat first met Clark and his fiancee when she filled in at bridge (for fifty cents an hour) at wealthy Mrs. Sycott’s home. Pat was living with her stepmother ai the time. Meeting Pat again at Haverholt’s, Clark does not recognize her. He breaks an appointment to teach Pat to drive her new car and goes on a trip with his fiancee's family. Noting her disappointment. Haverholt questions Pat, but she denies that she loves Clark. Pat concentrates on bridge to forget. Then comes the bridge tournament sponsored by Reuben Blair. Haverholt's bitter enemy. Clark is present. He is distressed by Patricia's coolness towards him. The contest is on. Haverholt and Pat play with machine-like precision and perfection, and win. Next morning, they are deluged with congratulatory telegrams and business offers. Haverholt purposely holds out a wire from Clark to see if Pat will ask for it. She does. He advises her to put Clark out of her thoughts, reminding her of what Clark would think if he knew she was not Haverholt’s niece. They accept Clark’s invitation to the races to see his horse. “Honey Boy.” run. Patricia is panic stricken lest Marthe March will remember their previous meeting at Mrs. Sycott’s and expose her. Clark showers Pat with attention and is aloof in his treatment of Marthe. Pat is puzzled by the antagonism between Clark and Haverholt. “Honey Boy” wins and the enormous purse stuns Pat. CHAPTER THIRTY Suddenly Patricia felt that she could never explain anything to Clark. How could this man be expected to understand the bitterness of poverty, the temptation to use any means to escape it? There had been money in the Tracy family for generations, long ago Clark must have come to accept wealth as less fortunate people accept air, as one of the necessities of life which existed in such profusion that no thought need be given it Shall I skip lunches and buy a pair of stockings or shall I have lunch and go without the stockings? Julian Haverholt would understand the neat reasoning, the delicate balancing that must go into such problems. He would understand the boredom, the weariness, the rebellion of a girl faced constantly with decisions of that sort. He had come up from nothing himself. But Clark . . Patricia resolutely gave her at--1 tention to the races. The afternoon I dragged by, drew to a close. She | rose gratefully. “Surely you’re going to dine with us?” said Clark, hurt. “I thought we could all drive into town together.” Patricia left the answer to Julian. He glanced at Marthe. Patricia saw I Marthe almost imperceptibly shake her head. The watcher felt vaguely surprised. “No, J think not, Clark,” said Haverholt definitely. “We have another engagement. I’m sorry we i won’t be there to drink to Honey Boy. You’ve got a great race horse there.”

“Thank you," said Clark, his , manner with Haverholt more nat--3 ural than it had been before. The parting was easy enough. e Marthe promised to call Patricia r for tea some afternoon, urged the s other to call her at any time, a thing which Patricia had no inten- ’ tion of doing. Still she smiled ' sweetly, trading compliment for ‘ compliment They threaded through I the gates toward their cars. Patri- . cia and Haverholt had driven to the track in the yellow roadster. ’ Marthe espied it promptly. ’ “You old copy cat,” she said , gayly to Julian. “Your car is just like mine. You must have seen my ‘ picture in the paper. I’ll telephone , the agency that I was responsible for one sale anyhow.” “The car belongs to Patricia.” “Don't you adore it?” demanded , Marthe promptly, turning enthusi- , astically upon the younger girl. ,f YK, n sftid Patricis, hating the ' roadster heartily, disgusted with her motives in choosing She ’ knew that Julian was secretly , amused. He opened the door. She stepped inside. As Julian got be- ’ neath the wheel, Clark looked at . Patricia a little oddly. She recalled ' telling him that she drove like a , veteran. Oh, she was sick of lies! Her fixed smile did not waver. t Calling back goodbyes, they drove , off, turned toward the city? They were caught in a crush of cars proceeding to the city. For a , while, of necessity, Julian devoted his attention to driving. At length, , with his usual disregard for the rights of others, he succeeded in jockeying a position in the center ■ of the road and determined that no , one should shake him from it. He . glanced at Patricia. Her face was pale and weary and dispirited. “Now that,” began Julian, “that was what I would term a thor- , oughly unsatisfactory afternoon. Or ■ did you like it?” “I loathed it,” said Patricia, sigh- ’ ing. She scuffed her heel against t the door. “They were nice enough but I felt like a seventh wheel or , something.” “You have ten times the brains and charm that Marthe has,” he ’ suggested, hitting neatly at the seat of her discontent. “Brains and charm aren’t it,” said Patricia with unexpected shrewdness, “I knew 1 shouldn’t i have been there at all. That was i the trouble. I’ll know better next time.” ; “You and Clark seemed to be hiti ting it off rather well," said HaverI holt, stubbornly maintaining his ■ position despite the honking be- ; hind him. i “I suppose so,” conceded Patri- > cia, drearily, making no mention of her conviction that Clark had used • her for the effect of his attentions [ on Marthe. “You and Marthe didn’t ’ do so badly.” she observed, expectI ing to draw him out. He made no i comment. The girl asked frankly, > “Why didn't Marthe want us to • dine with them? Was it because of • me? Was it because she didn’t like ! me?” “Marthe didn’t want us to dine i with them!” exclaimed Haverholt • and gave a convincing exhibition of ; astonishment. “You are mistaken, my dear. She urged us. You must • have heard her.” i “I thought—” began Patricia and ! stopped. Let Haverholt lie if he ehose. It was nice of him to try to i protect her feelings but unnecest sary. She didn’t care whether • Marthe March had wanted her or not. Certainly she had had enough . of Marthe. r She drew a long deep breath. > “Well anyhow,” she said defii antly, “I’m glad it’s over. I never felt so flat. I hope 1 never have to 1 see any of them again.” “Not even’Clark?” j “Especially Clark," she admitted f over a wrench of pain. She ended > gallantly, “You see, I know now that you were right. He’s too dis-

ferent from nie. I could never make him understand—anything." "You still have me. my dear." “I still have you and 1 find you very comfortable just now." “Only comfortable, Patricia?” She glanced up at him. His eyes were dark beneath his snow-whits hair, dark, unsmiling. She knew him and all his faults and failings, knew that she could never hold him Still she felt just then that ths slightest breath would send her into his arms. She might end in misery but Julian Haverholt would be an easy man for any woman te love. Perhaps she herself- did not. What of that? Julian could stir her pulses, make her happy for a while ■He was handsome, he was magnetic, he had fascinated her from the first. She had nothing to lose. Once her situation was discovered she would have the name. Why not have the game? Why not do the on? thing* that would alienate her forever from Clark Tracy and from a dream that she once had harbored? “Well, Patricia?” “Please, Julian, please don’t.” He seemed about to speak, then lapsed into moody silence, keeping his eyes upon the road. “Gosh,” he said suddenly, “I must be getting old. I find I have a conscience.” “What are you talking about?’' she demanded, bewildered by his words. • “You and me,” he said half ruefully. “Especially me. If I were willing to make all the proper moves, to say all the proper things, J to trade on your reaction from thia afternoon I could win you. I’ve just discovered that I don’t feel like do- ) ing that with you. I want your decision clear-eyed and unafraid or not at all. Which is it, Patricia?” “Not at all,” she whispered. “Not at all.” They dined at home together, unsentimentally, without referring to the afternoon. Somehow Patricia wished that Julian would refer to it. She wanted him to sweep her from her feet and to convince her that loving him was her way out. Nobility, she decided, was unsuitable to him. Strange to feel flat and disappointed because Julian Haverholt chose to play fairly. Not until they were separating for the night did he speak. “Have you changed your mind— . about this afternoon?” “No,” she replied and waited for him to change it. He only said oddly, “I hope you won’t regret your decision.” What did he mean by that? Even after she had entered her own bedroom and began her preparations to retire, Patricia still wondered. She heard Julian come upstairs and go down the hall toward his own suite. She had an impulse to open her door, to face him and to ask an explanation. She wanted to see him. She hungered for the sight of him whom she had seen fifteen minutes earlier. Trembling she stood beside the door and fought the strange excitement that was stirring in her blood. At length she turned sharply from the door, dropped off her clothes and got into bed. It had been a baffling, contradictory day. The girl had thought that she would lie there in the darkness and puzzle it out. She was more weary than she knew. Almost instantly she fell into deep, dreamless sleep. She woke suddenly toward morning. What had wakened her? She had heard some sound. Drowsily she reached for the light. It was ten minutes past four. She waz wide awake now. tense, rigid, listening. She heard the sound again. She was swept by acute, physical fear. Someone was moving around downstairs, (To Be Continued) © 1932, by King Features Syndicate. Inc-
