CHAPTER THIRTY-ONE Her heart beat clamorously; her mind went back across the months to Bill McGee. Someone had broken in. Was it he ? For a moment, fright*held het •motionless. Then she sprang from bed and snatched at a negligee. Slipping into the darkened hall, she made her way swiftly, noiselessly, toward Haverholt’s suite. She dared not knock. She opened his door and whispered loudly, “Julian, Julian.’’ There was no answer. The room was entirely black. The girl hesitated at the threshold. “Julian, Julian.” She stepped over his threshold, groped across his sitting room to his bedroom door. A light was I burning in the bedroom but Haverholt was not there. Had he heard the noise? Had he ventured downstairs to investigate? What was happening? She tried to convince herself that there was a logical, reasonable explanation for his absence. It was Julian whom she had heard. He had wanted somethin? downstairs. At four o’clock in the morning? No, that was not possible. Something terrible was happening. All at once she was hysterically sure of it. Suddenly she turned and started for the stairs, forcing herself down, step by step in utter darkness. She had reached the last step when light gushed from the living room into the foyer, as the curtains parted narrowly. Patricia stopped, stopped dead at the sound of Julian Haverholt's calm, unhurried voice. She understood everything then, all at once. Haverholt was saying, “This way, my dear." The girl on the S’airs heard from beyond the curtains another girl’s soft, excited laugh. Patricia whirled. There was no time. They would see her, they were bound to see her. Instinct more than reason carried her to the giant tapestry that hung from ceiling to floor. She darted behind it. The clothy, dusty folds closed around her just as the others advanced into the foyer. Stuffing her fingers into her cars. Patricia waited, longing to escape, longing to be anywhere but here. She was torn by shock and jealousy and shame. So this was Julian Haverholt. She had known his reputation from the first. Now she realized that she had never believed those gossips’ tales. She believed them now. With horror she recalled the day. her own fluttered feelings, her half yielding. She had been on the point of surrendering to this philanderer who had asked for her love in the afternoon and who had satisfied himself with her successor at night. The bang of a door cut through her misery. “You may come out now. Patricia,” called Julian Haverholt. “I’m alone now.” Patricia did y>t stir. She pressed back and back against the wall. The man himself crossed the foyer, pulled the tapestry aside and faced her. She refused to meet his eyes. “After all,” he said gently, “the world hasn’t ended.” She said in lifeless tones, “I'm sorry, I thought someone had broken into the house.” She lifted her ey c 3 now. They were lifeless too. She said, “I should never have been so naive, should I, Julian?" “I don’t know what you’re talking about,” he said flatly. “I’m sorry if you were frightened. Bill Tevis telephoned, he was drunk, he needed money to pay a taxi bill. I told him to come around, that’s all.”

He was not lying to convince her. He knew that she knew the truth. He lied deliberately to save the situation and both their faces. She could pretend if she chose. By accepting that lie she might salvage her own pride and such dignity as she could muster from the ruins of her regard for him. She stared at the floor. A square of lace and linen lay there, white against the mellow green of the rug. Haverholt’s midnight visitor had dropped her handkerchief The man looked down too. He stooped, picked up the handkerchief and thrust it in his pocket. His expression did not change by the flicker of an eyelash. He said nothing. Suddenly the girl turned and fled up the stairs. She slammed her bedroom door, flung herself prone upon the bed and began to sob. They talked it out in the morning, Julian and Patricia, the girl determined to punish him for the humiliation she had suffered, the man, unwilling to discuss the matter at all, self-controlled, utterly unrepentant. There was no pretence now of a man friend who had called late. Still in Haverholt’s eyes the tragedy of the episode lay in Patricia’s appearance upon the scene the night before. He blamed her sharply. Very foolish of her to start on a burglar-hunt, foolish and unfortunate; yes, he would admit it was unfortunate. He would admit nothing else. “What do you expect me to do?” he asked, looking at her coldly and remotely. “Apologize? Why should I ? Why should I apply on my knees for forgiveness? I’m a free agent.” “I didn’t say that you weren’t free.” “You are thinking it though. You women are all alike. If a man shows sentimental interest in you, thereafter he becomes your property. You want to do all the binding and not be bound yourself. A beautiful theory, Patricia, b u t it won’t work. I’m not your property

Yesterday afternoon you denied all claims on me. I remember, even if you don’t.” “Do you think I’m jealous?” She flung it at him hotly. “I think you’re darned impertinent, that’s what I think. I’m not answerable to you for my actions You have no right to meddle in my life unless I give you the right. 1 don’t. The sooner you realize that the better we will get along." Her face went pale at the rebuke. She swallowed it. She had to. He was right and she was wrong. Long ago her father had said to her, “Never ask questions, Patricia, if you can’t bear the answers.” She had asked such questions. The answers had been unbearable. They showed her up to herself and to Haverholt, as a jealous, suspicious, nagging girl, greedily trying to eat her cake and have it, too. She felt cheap and baffled and resentful. There had been some justice on her side; there must be. Nevertheless, Haverholt had come out of the situation with flying colors. In his own mind he was vindicated, was entirely the injured party. She was to blame for meddling in his affairs, for appointing herself, unasked, the guardian of his morals and actions. Certainly she was to blame, partially. Still he was not entitled to so complete a triumph. Patricia longed to rob him of it. It was not that she cared, so she argued. She might have seemed jealous. She was not, not really. Let Julian Haverholt behave in the future as he chose! What she want- : ed to do was to shatter his colossal self-satisfaction, to make him see himself as he really was. He was utterly lacking in honor. Useless to remind him of that. She could shake him though, if she could prove that, he had no dignity, no taste! She sought to formulate the phrases in her mind and failed. , (Tri B- Continued) ■ C 1032. by King Features Syndicate. lac.
