- CHAPTER SIXTEEN JOHN HAD been with Veronica i for three hours. She had sailed in i ilka a frigate, and cut him out of i the circle and carried him off as I her prise, and he wondered now I what on earth everybody had thought about it. i What, for instance, would Gerda 1 think T And Henrietta? (But he didn't 1 care quite so much about Henri- < etta. He could, he felt, at a pinch i explain to Henrietta. He could I never explain to Gerda.) < And he didn't, definitely he i didn't, want to lose anything. I AU his life he had been a man who took a justifiable amount of 1 risks. Risks with patients, risks with treatment, risks with invest- i ments. Never a fantastic risk— i only the kind of risk that was just : beyond the margin of safety. If Gerda guessed—if Gerda had Cte« ica a ju picion. hut would the have? How much diu ne really know about Gerda? Normally, Gerda would believe white was black if he told her so. Out over a thing like this. 'What had he looked like when ho followed Veronica's tall, triumphant figure out of that window? What had he shown in his face ? Had they seen a boy’s dazed, love-sick face? Or had they only observed a man doing a polite duty? He didn't know! Ho hadn't th* feast idea. But he was afraid—afraid for the ease and order and safety of Ms life. He’d been mad—mad, he thought with exasperation —and then took comfort in that very thought Nobody would believe, surely, he could have been as mad as that Everybody was in bed and asleep, that was clear. The French window of the drawing room stood half open, left for his return. He looked up again at the innocent sleeping house. It looked, somehow, too Innocent Suddenly he started. He had heard, or he had imagined he heard, the faint closing of a door. He turned his head s» -ply. If someone had come down to the poet following him there. If aotaeoM had waited and followed him back, that someone could have taken a higher path and so gained entrance to the house again by the side garden door and the soft ctoatag of the garden door would have made just the sound that he had board. He looked up sharply at the windows. Was that curtain moving, had it been pushed aside for someone to look out, and then allowed to fall? Henrietta's room. Henrietta! Not Henrietta, his heart cried in a sudden panic. I can’t lose Henrietta! He wanted suddenly to fling up a handful of pebbles at her window, to cry out to her. •‘Come out, my love. Come out to me now and walk with me up through the woods to Shovel Down and there listen— isten to everything that I now know about myaetf and that you must know. too. if you do not know it already. .. ." Ha wanted to say to Henrietta: 1 am starting again. A new life begins from today. The things that crippled and hindered me-from living have fallen away, You were right this afternodn when you miked me if I was runnfhg away from myself. That ia what I have been doing for years. Because I aewr knew whether it was atMMrth ar weak—as that took me *wav from Veronica., I have bran •ftwM of myuatf, afraid at life, pfraMl of you." , r >

it ne wrre to wane ticnnctia and make her come out with him now—up through the woods to where they could watch, together, the sun come up over the rim of the world. "You’re mad," he said to himself. He shivered. It was cold now, late September after all. "What the devil is the matter with you ?’’ he asked himself. “You've behaved quite insanely enough for one night. If you get away with It as it is. you’re damed lucky!" What on earth would Gerda think if he stayed out all night and came home with the milk? What, for the matter of that, would the Anyas tells think? But that did not worry him for a moment The Angk atolls took Greenwich time, as it were, from Lucy Angkatell. And to Lucy Angkatel. the unusual always appeared perfectly reasonable. But Gerda, unfortunately, was not an AngkatelL Gerda would have to be dealt with, and he’d better go in and deal with Garda as soon as peaalble. SupfMMtng it had been Gerda who had followed him tonight— No good saying people didn’t do such things. Aa a doctor, he knew only toe well what people. Mghminded, sensitive, fastidious, honorable people constantly did. They listened at doors, and opened letters and spied and —toped—cot because for one moment they approved of such conduct, but because, before the sheer necessity of human anguish, they were rendered desperate. Poor devils, he thought, poor suffering human Jevfia. . . . John Christow knew a good deal about human suffering. He had not much pity for weakness, but he had for suffering, for It was, be know, the strong who suffer. If Gerda knew—- " Nonsense,” he said to himself, "why should she? She's gone up to bed and she's fast asleep. She's no Imagination, never has had." He went in through the French windows, switched on a lamp, closed and locked tiie windows. Then, switching off the light, he left the room, found the switch In the halt went quickly and lightly up the stain. A second switch turned off the hall light He stood for a moment by the bedroom door, his hand on the doorknob, then he turned it. and went in. The room was dark and he could hear Gerda's even braatMng. flhe stirred aa he came in and closed the door. Her voice came to him, blurred and indistinct with sleep: "Is that you, John?" "Yes." -Aren’t you very late? What time is it?" He said easily: -I've no idea. Sorry I woke you up. I had to go in with the woman and have a drink." He made his voice sound bored and sleepy. Gerda murmured, "Oh! Good night. John." There was a rustle as she turned over in bed. ( It was all right! As usual, he'd been lucky. . . . As usual—just for a moment it sobered him, the thought of how often his luck had held! Tim* and again there had been a moment when hffd jie'.d Ws breath and said. "Ts fflls L goes wrong . .

All that's over, I’m quit of you now! ass It was ten o'clock the next morning when John came down. Breakfast was on the sideboard. Gerda had had her breakfast sent up to her in bed and had been rather perturbed since p». haps she might be "giving trouble.'* Nonsense, John had said. People like the Angkatclls, who still man- ' aged to have butlers and servants, might just as well give them some- : thing to do. He felt very kindly toward Gerda this morning.
