LBAFfKK nFtl-FIVK Eileen had eorne here to inflict ; this stupid cruelty. This was her i chance. Still, *he was frightened as 1 she took it. Her eyes were bright | and sharp, there was no mercy in ' them, but she was flushed, her plump gray satin breast was agitated. "I knew Patricia when,” she announced it in a hurried rush, her tones distinct and carrying. "I knew her in the days when she was Patricia Warren.” With the swiftness of a rapier thrust she had turned to face the girl. “What’s this nonsense, dear, about your being Patricia Haverholt? Is that publicity too?” There was a deathly silence. Patricia saw Clark’s terrible look. It was not for her, it was for Marthe. But there were looks enough for her. Half her little world, half the world of bridge, had heard Eileen Sycott’s words. Half her world was staring. Blair was brightening out of momentary stupefaction. Sanders and the referee, countless others who had heard the amazing words, accepted them at once, and were now drawing swift conclusions. The silence lasted, lasted. Why would no one speak? Just then, someone did. It was Julian, contained and cold, magnificent as he looked at the bridling Mrs. Sycott. “So,” he said it calmly, “so you’ve discovered our little secret. “Your little secret!” said Marthe sharply. “What’s this, Haverholt?” demanded Blair, attempting to lead the pack. “What’s this all about?” Haverholt made no reply, not just then. Unconcernedly he strolled forward to take his place beside Patricia, to drop a careless arm about her rigid shoulder. “Shall we tell them?” he asked it casually. “Shall we tell them now. Patricia.” She must have nodded. Haverholt said, his manner easy, his arm still linked about the girl, “We had hoped to make our own announcement but unfortunately Mrs. Sycott chose to anticipate us.” He sent that lady a contemptuous glance, continued, “You have some of the facts as it happens, Mrs. Sycott, not all.” He said, “It’s quite true that Patricia is not my niece.” ; “Not your niece!” “It was, in away, publicity,” mused Julian, accepting the astonishment, the shock, without the flicker of an eyelash to show that he understood its meaning. “T h e idea in the first place was publicity, my idea, I mean, that I should introduce this youngster as my niece. I knew for instance that you, Reuben,” he said, directly addressing his enemy, “I knew that you would never be half so impressed by a first flight bridge player named Patricia Warren as by one named Patricia Haverholt. Now, isn’t that the truth?” Blair struggled, found no answer. He knew, no one better, that a scandalous exposure had taken place. How to reap advantage from the situation, how to say the damning word, that was a different question, a question that Blair, eager as he was, found himself incapable of solving. Helpless, he realized that sentiment was shifting. Somehow, Haverholt was wiggling out. Julian’s lightness was indecent, indecent, but alas! effective. Blair could have stamped his feet in rage. “Patricia was a genius when I met her,” Haverholt told them quite simply, sparing an angelic smile for the pop-eyed, purple Blair. “She was a genius at the game of bridge. It seemed too bad that she should start at the bottom of the ladder, : fight to win the recognition that was justly hers, all for the lack of a name that would impress certain people, who unfortunately need to be impressed by names.” He looked again at Blair, he looked speculatively at Marthe, he

almost laughed in Mrs. Sycott s faee. He said, “This idea occured to ’ me: Why should Patricia go ’ through all the bother when she might borrow my fairly well-known ' tag? I was willing, she was willing. We’ve laughed a thousand times at how well our little plot ■ succeeded.” Julian knew his crowd. He spoke straight from the shoulder. He made it all so simple, this little 1 business understanding, this agreement between the famous expert and the unknown brilliant girl. The thing that clinched it was that he really did not care. For their good ’ wMI and good opinion he cared 1 nothing. He made his own rules, he ■ always had. Let them like it. Let ! them not. It was all one to him. He and Patricia belonged to a different, a more exciting, a more glamorous world, a world where ' conventions didn’t matter. All these 1 things were implicit in his intona- ■ tions, in his gestures, in the tim--1 bre of his careless speech. “Isn’t that right, Patricia?” he asked the girl with a charming def--1 erence that certain of the ladies ■ found entirely winning. “Isn’t that right?” ■ “I guess so,” she murmured faintly. “Yes,” she said defiantly, • and faced the crowd with brilliant i eyes. • “Well,” said Marthe suddenly bitter, sullen, resentful, on the ■ verge of angry tears. “Well, I 1 never ” i “You never what, Marthe?” ask--1 ed Julian gently. “You never once suspected? I’m sure you did. I • thought so more than once. It was ’ sporting of you to keep our secret. 1 You see,” he continued, addressing I them all once more, “We’ve had a reason lately for desiring that our • secret should be kept. That’s what I spoke of earlier, the information ’ that Mrs. Sycott lacked to fill in i her picture.” Patricia, tom by a thousand con- ’■ dieting emotions, stared at the man i in mute astonishment. What next? : Julian drew her closer to his side ■ and delivered his final bolt. “Patricia’s name will soon be Haverholt in fact,” he announced it clearly, regarding the palely beautiful girl with a look of complete devotion. “She has promised to marry me. We had planned a quiet ceremony for the seventh. I’m afraid,” he said in light, halfrueful complaint, “I’m afraid it can’t be so quiet now.”

Like some helpless pawn in a game of which she had no understanding, Patricia accepted this as part of the fantastic madness of the evening. She and Haverholt were instantly surrounded. These were people who prided themselves upon sophistication; Haverholt had presented them an opportunity to show exactly how sophisticated they really were. They seized that opportunity, one and all, bubbling with eagerness and with excitement and with a sense of being part of what would certainly be the most sensational romance of the season. From niece to wife? Amazing, isn’t it? How like Julian Haverholt? Isn’t he amusing? Did you ever see a man more completely subjugated? He can hardly keep his eyes off that lovely girl. The girl too, look she’s clinging to hia arm as if she couldn’t bear U> let him go. “What a surprise you’ve given us, Julian.” “Julian, you could have bowled me over with the lightest feather.” “You’re announcing it at once, then?” Indeed they were announcing it. Newspaper men were even at that moment clamoring at the door, begging for admittance. Cameras were primed and ready in the corridors. A bridge romance! Julian Haverholt to marry Patricia Warren, until lately known as Patricia Haverholt,'his partner in the famous marathon. Oh, this would lead the morning papers. Love and bridge and a secret publicly revealed—a perfect combination. Haverholt had grabbed the spotlight with a vengeance. Only once did the fog that enveloped Patricia roll aside. That was when Clark spoke to her. Eileen’s bitter-sweet congratulations, Marthe’s open sneer, Blair's thin-lipped suggestiv smile, these could not touch her. But, Clark could touch her as he always had. He stood before her, tall, his browned face pale, Clark, so dear to her, so lost to her. “I wish for you, Patricia,” he said, “I wish for you great happiness.” “I ” she faltered. “Aren't you surprised?” • “No,” he said. She was too lost in pain herself to see the pain upon his face. “I guessed it long ago,” he said. “Long ago, I knew that you loved Julian Haverholt.” (To B* Continued) C 1932. bv Kin?
