CHAPTER XLII “Yvonne and Armand are sure to go to Mrs. Vandaveer and tell her about my marriage,” Luana sobbed. "I met one of the girls who works at Quackenbush's yesterday, and she said they were just back from Atlantic City where they got married.” “Did Mrs. Vandaveer know about your marriage?” Jimmy inquired sharply. “Oh no. But it leaked out that Mr. Quackenbush suspected me of stealing his advance styles in models, and now it seems he’s veered right around, and it’s Armand and Yvonne who are under suspicion.” “What do you care, Luana? Truth will out. You bet your name will be absolutely cleared in that connection.” Had they but known it, at that moment Mr. Quackenbush was closeted with Armand and Yvonne. They were getting their "walking papers” from old “Quacky.” During their Atlantic City vacation, he had found out plenty about Armand’s dealings with the wholesaler who was reproducing his most cherished styles . . . bootlegging, , in fact! Out of a job, the pair went straight to Mrs. Vandaveer at the hotel. “Now you write out an affidavit and my attorney will pay you well for this information,’’ she told them, calling up her lawyer. At noon thatfsame day the two opposition lawyers in the Vandaveer divorce case lunched at their club. Joel Vandaveer’s attorney held the trump cards, however. He informed his “enemy” (who was one of his oldest friends in the profession) that on overwhelming evidence of her moral turpitude, Joel Vandaveer was instituting a counter divorce action against Lorraine. Ramon, the dancer, had made a long signed statement as to his relations with Lorraine Vandaveer in Paris and down at her villa in Cannes. “She brought him to America. He has the goods absolutely on her.” “So? Vendetta? Is that it?” “Precisely. The old saying about a woman scorned is nothing to what a Spanish gigolo’ll do, if given the air by his protectrice," Juel’s lawyer grinned. “What else?” “Ramon swears she gave him the air because she fell madly in love with the young architect . . . Randolph ... who won that competition —quite a big prize for amateurs—for a building-plan in the forthcoming Exposition. Ramon swears she followed him to Paris, and he wasn’t the only one, either. Abroad, your client goes in for la grande passion on a grand scale.” They lit their after-luncheon cigars. “Better have her drop proceedings, old man, or She'D find herself out of the picture minus a settlement or alimony, and pretty well disgraced. Simes, the Vandaveer butler, who's devoted to his master, has come forward with irrefutable corroboration of Ramon’s evidence. Simes was down in the Palm Beach villa last year with the family when that rich Carew chap was a guest.” “You mean Tlandsome’ Carew was one of the—er—?” “Unquestionably. Odette, the maid, has also made a statement about that.” “Good grief!” The opposition at- | torney mopped his brow. “Take my tip and get it settled out of court, or the fair Lorraine will have to start her career again from zero, mark my words!” It became bruited about town that there was a serious hitch in the forthcoming divorce proceedings. The women whom Lorraine Vandaveer had snubbed socially were the first to champion Luana, orally spreading reports up and down Park Avenue that the girl had been dragged into the case wrongfully. Rumors added: The real inside information was that Lorraine was tired of the elderly Joel, and wanted a younger, more attractive mate with a large settlement from “the OF Boy,” of course. Mr. Vandaveer’s relations with Luana Waters had been purely on a business footing, and it was freely

In the opening minutes wheat

voiced that Um rich financier had enough information derogatory to n his wife to divorce her without a nickel in settlement I . Among the frivolous ones, Ramon ” became a kind of pet, and did I? plenty of talking! • Under pressure from her own at--1 torney, who foretold her ruin were she to go on with things, Lorraine J reluctantly dropped the divorce pro- > reedings and went straight back to Paris. t Mr. Vandaveer’s attorney came to f see Luana, after Lorraine had - sailed. i “My client wishes you every posi sible luck in the new venture but, after the unfortunate publicity in j the newspapers, he would prefer e that the business partnership be t dissolved. Yon understand?" “Perfectly,” agreed Luana. . For her own part, business had fallen off badly, even though her own name had been cleared. ' She longed to get away from New f York, and the gossip, and the fear ’ of running into Gerald Bruton, who _ was still at large, very possibly in ’ the city. F That he would try to see her, to , claim her as his wife, terrified her ’ to the verge of a nervous breakdown. t Her stepfather wanted her to 8 come to San Francisco. If it hadn’t. ■ been for Jimmy, she would have } packed up immediately. ' “Mr. Vandaveer is deeply grieved that you should have been submit- > ted to the indignity of the action, - and wishes to make amends. You r may have the premises and the penthouse at a purely nominal rental, to 1 be paid at such time as the business - warrants it” s Undecided what to do, she sent a - message of thanks through the at- - torney. 1 That night, she and Jimmy dis- - cussed their future. Until the ques- . tion of the annulment was cleared I up, there could be no wedding cere- - mony ... i Luana was firm in that And desi perately unhappy too. “One reaps as one sows, Jimmy. . People nowadays laugh at the old ’ truisms, but they’re right One pays miserably, inevitably.” He left her at ten o’clock, as unhappy as she was, and as restless. Alone in the penthouse, she could not sleep. It was as though a ter- I rible premonition was on her, unnerving her... The long, hot day of Indian Sum- 1 mer had come to a close. But no air stirred. An electrical storm I brewed over New York City. She drew the shades, and turned 1 on the radio, but the jazz music < brought nothing but a headache. There was a flash of lightning, < followed by a clap of thunder. 1 Luana shivered. < Came another reverberation, I echoing through skyscraper can- ’ yons . . . and another. Rain poured down in torrents. With a horrible rasp, a shade in : her livingroom flew up. Then came the storm. It was as though the very heavens were tear- , ing apart. In a lull, she heard a step on the < terrace. Jimmy returning? Or—burglars? She rushed to the telephone, to ' call up Jimmy, to ask him to come back for her. Lifting the receiver, there was a buzzing on the line. , Then—snap! Complete silence, ; broken by another step out on the terrace. Good gracious! Someone . out there had cut the wire! She saw him at the window then I . . . the window where the shade > had flown up . . . i Gerald Bruton looking in at her in her pretty livingroom . . . Gerald Bruton raising the sash, grinning i strangely at her ... Gerald Bruton . coming straight towards her, with the thunder crashing outside . .. “Forgive me for cutting your tele- • phone wires, Elizabeth—l beg your r pardon. Miss Luana Waters—but i having been betrayed once, a man i takes his precautions the second . time. You can’t communicate with the police this time, my dear. Oh. i no! I’ve taken care of that! I • bided my time till your—lover—dei parted!’’ She screamed. She backed against . the wall. In her terror she shouti ed: “Jimmy! Jimmy!” i Gerald Brtrton grinned fiendishly. ' “Revenge is sweet. Elizabeth—

I Luana. Cail for your Jimmy an you ) want to, but it’s your husband who’s i here—your husband who want* you—” i This was the real Gerald Bruton. I His was the face of a maniac, coming nearer, nearer ... “Did you ever take morphine, > Elizabeth? It’s grand stuff. It makes you forget your troubles, Elizabeth. Want some? Suppose we take some together?” Came a loud knocking at the front door of the penthouse. Summoning all her strength, she gave a loud scream for help. In a flash Gerald was on her, choking her, so that she fell on the sofa with his two hands at her throat. W’hat happened afterward* seemed like an incredible dream . .. Jimmy told it to her late that night, when Gerald Bruton’s body was lying in the Bellevue morgue. "After I left you, Luana, and was walking down Madison Avenue, it was as though I heard you calling me, calling me back . .. “It seemed like an hallucination, because I was so much in love with you, but finally it was so strong, I ) turned and ran back to the building. I’d just knocked at the front door of the penthouse when I heard you shouting my name. I flew around to the terrace and saw a window open I and I jumped through, and there • you were on the sofa with that brute throttling the life out of you. “I went right at him, Luana. He had a gun and in our tussle it dropped. He was shot full of dope —l'm certain of it—he fought like a madman—but suddenly he broke | away from me and fled out the window. I followed. He got in the elevator and dammed the door shut. I raced down the stairs, but he made his getaway into the street. “There was a cop on the corner of Park Avenue who saw him running, and followed. On the far side of the street there was a taxi. Bruton leaped on its running board. The driver’s story is that Bruton put a gun against him and forced him to drive three blocks north, then Bruton threw him out and took the wheel himself. “He whirled east across Lexington, the policeman following him in another cab that happened to be passing. The streets were infernally skiddy in the rain and, turning hell-for-leather into Third Avenue, he crashed head on into a pillar of the elevated railway. “When I got there on foot, the ambulance had arrived, and the doctor was telling the cop there was nothing he could do. Bruton was dead as a door-nail—don't cry, Luana, ft was the best th’ng that could happen, for they’d have sent him up for life, for certain. The doctor said he’d enough morphine in him to kill a hundred people—he was shot through with morphine—they took him to the morgue.” "And—and they didn’t question you, Jimmy?” “I was only one of the spectators. Why mix in? There was a warrant , out for his rearrest. They’D soon find out who he is, but it was none 1 of my business.” • • • On the train heading for San Francisco were Luana and Jimmy. On the third finger of her left hamd, Jimmy’s engagement ring. “We’ll have a church wedding and your father will give you away, Luana, and yonr friend Nancy will | be matron of honor.” StiD sober from the shock of Gerald Bruton’s passing, Luana smiled palely at Jimmy, while pressing his hand. "Life’s going to be wonderful, after all. Jimmy, I’ve paid!” “Forget it, darling. Out in San Francisco, we start a new life." A civic commission had already come to him to draw up the plans for a new Musie Bow! in Golden Gate Park. “Jimmy, down at San Gregorio on the ocean there’s the sweetest little cottage close to the one Nancy and j Jasper purchased. You’d work wonderfully down there, in that quiet.” “Anything you say, darling. Well have the Colonel visit us. I’ll work like blazes.” He kissed her. A new life in the Golden West... Living and loving and working.,. That was the real life. THE END i
