CH APTER TWENTT-FOUR TERRY WALKED on between Brooks and Jims, vaguely aware of shadow, then moonlight, on the tree-shaded path; of the vast looming outlines ot the Norman castle they were approaching; of Brooks* voice vibrating through her with a power that left her weak and helplees. She struggled against the realisation that had struck her such & coward's blow. She couldn’t to In love with Brooks Kimberly! It was insane. Mockingly her heart answered. Her impulses had never been noted fer their sanity, AM right then. It was hopeless. He was engaged to Corinna Art!gas. Her heart had no answer for this. It went on thudding painfully till her <mrs rang with It, and her head felt dizzy. Brooks was holding the side door for them. She followed Jime Into the hall and down toward the streak of light that flared from the study. Corinne was slumped in a deep leather chair pulling at the fingers of her gi&ve*. She rose when she saw them, looking slim and rich in her black suit and veiled hat, her fur coat still draped from her shoulders. "Why, Corinne!" It was Jime who pretended surprise, "When did you arrive?” Corinne stared at Jime. It was dear she had worked herself up for an emoLonai crisis. Her delicate features looked pinched, Woodless, her black eyes huge with their hurt anger. Now, in an Instant, the sight of Jime straightened everything. The shock was so great she could not speak. Brooks went across and kisseu her. The Xtas seemed to warm her back to reason. She told them she had come an hour ago. "Maria said she saw you driving out so I thought I'd wait up for you." She turned from Brooks to Jime, Ignoring Terry. "She didn't mention seeing YOU." “Maria thinks she has the eyes of a bird," Jime said calmly. “She ean’t see to paces. That settles it. •he goes to Urn oculist tomorrowBrooks told her of Pedro's accident While he talked, Terry crossed to the roaring fire tn the fireplace.

leaving now would look like flight Perhaps the heat would stop her fit of trembling. As he talked Brooks absently followed Terry to the hearth, stood beside her warming his hands. His action seemed to rouse Corinne’s Irritation. Her black eyes turned on Terry. *T suppose you felt the child might need a nurse?’* There wss an undercurrent of aarcusm in the warmth of her low voice. Terry struggled guiltily to explain what had seemed such a natural thing at the time. “Yes—l had a course in first aid In New York." "The doctor says we may have saved Pedro’s life," Brooks said steadily. “That’s very fine." Corinne smiled at him, but tor voice was thin. ••Have you started your next speech?" “I have," Brooks assured her, “and it’s coming along nicely." At the note ct real enthusiasm in his voice Corinne relaxed for the first time. She followed Brooks to i his desk and sat on the edge of hta chair as he showed the manuscript to her, Jime and Terry illnnad out and went up to their rooms. But Terry was not to be let off so easily. She was saying goodnight to Jime at her door when the older woman suddenly murmured. “Would you mind if I came In for I a chat, Terry?" “Os course not" Terry swung i open the door to her room and fol- ’ lowed Jime in. This was totter, she f reflected dully. She had caught . dime's eyes on her just ones at the moment Brooks* joined her before the fire. In them had been -a thoughtful expression. She may I have guessed her guilty secret Or more probably, she simply realized i that the situation had become impossible. a girt whose life had been i trained in another cods of action could never fit into this scheme. She : could only intrude, She sms going ’ to ask tor to leave. She would do it t straight forwardly, but graciously. : Yea, it was much better this wsy. Jime had settled down on the ' chaise longue and loosened her i coat “Do you Blind if I smoke?" she asked. “Help youraelf." Terry shoved the inlaid toa of dgsrets toward I her. Meria had lighted the log to the 1 •reg-tacs. sad it was crackling mar_rtfy. Terry threw off her coat and
