CHAPTER TWELVE

ITH Pats’ scream for help and Don's forward lunge Rosie shrieked and threw herself upon

‘him. in a frenzy of disappointed

rage. She kicked and scratched and bit and her magenta nails left four deep welts on Don's cheek. The onslaught gave Bradlovich time to recover. Snatching a heavy candlestick from the mantel shelf, he rushed at Don. Then Pats went wild. Hurling herself into the fray, she caught the lawyer’s uplifted arm and the candlestick crashed to the hearth. She too kicked and clawed. Her glasses fell to the floor and were trampled under scrambling feet. The hated wig slipped over one eye and recklessly she ripped it from her head. Then her eye caught the full impact of Rosie's sharp elbow as Don furiously thrust her aside. Momentarily stunned by the blow, Pats gave ground, her heel caught in a rug and she went down just as Don landed a [telling blow on the exact point off the lawyer's chin. With a groan he folded up and sank to the floor. 7 ” » » ats’ head struck the

The next thing she knew, it couldn’t have been more than a moment later, Don was beside her on the floor, his arms holding her closely. As she opened her undamaged eye a laugh rose to her throat. Never had.Don's expressive face registered more incredulity. In one hand he held the wig and his eyes moved blankly from it to Pats’ face. : “My, my—" like a man in a trance, locks—" “Oh, Don, don't look so f-funny,” Pats gasped.’ “But I thought—but I thought—" He was wild-eyed. Four streams of blood trickled down his cheek, his collar had been torn |open, his tie

Pats struggled to sit up “Wasn't it a swell fight?” she inquired happily, covering her swollen eye with one hand and investigating the lump on her head with the other. » ” zn ON moistened his lips. He moved his eyes an inch from her face and darted them back as if experimenting with optical illusions. “Where'd you come from?” he wanted to know, still in a hushed voice. “I've been here all the time, Don, darling, you're hurt,” she exclaimed contritely. Pulling a handkerchief from his pocket she gently held it to his cheek. He seemed unconscious of himself. He sat down on the floor beside Pats and they both leaned against the couch. “But you're out on the Post Road waiting for me,” Don said dazedly. Pats wanted to tell him. The time had come and she was eager for it but her brain Stood still in blissful lethargy. Contentedly she rybbed her cheek against Don's shoulder. At last she began at the beginning by speaking of Trissy and John. And who were they Don wanted to know.

ATS explained how she and P Trissy had come to New York to lick the world, how, with their money gone, Trissy had secured the position as Don Monteray’s secretary and then John had sent for Trissy. “But she didn’t know what to ‘do about me,” Pats went on. “You see, 1 thought I was an actress but-I hadn't been able to get a part.” “Uh-huh.” Don was. completely at sea. He kept a firm arm around Pats as if the physical contact gave him assurance. “So I said I'd be. your ‘secretary and Trissy said you wouldn't have me because I was too good-looking.” “That's the first lucid thing you've said. Even I can see that.” “So I said I'd attend to that and fixed myself up to look like the plainest secretary who ever typed a letter.” “Are you trying to tell me,” suddenly Don exclaimed, “that you— you were Miss—er—" Pats nodded. “And I was a pretty good secretary,” she answered com-

Pats hung her head. “Well, you see this Miss—er—Warren fell terribly in love with her employer, and after she became his smoke-screen wife she was mad about him.” Don’s arm tightened and she continued: “So-o—the night of the masquerade ball she got the bright idea of going as herself and making a play for her husband.” ” ” ” ET me get this straight.” Don was in deep water again. “First you hid your lovely light under a bushel so you could take Trissy’s place as my secretary—" “Um-hmm,” Pats nodded. needed the money.” ‘And you kept the disguise going even after we were married.

I've got that straight, haven't I?” suddénly tender. “You are my wife?” “Everything is sort of mixed. I've been so many different people, but I'm quite sure I am your wife.” The words ended on a laugh. “For a few minutes this afternoon.I was afraid I had stolen a diamond necklace.” “Oh, Lordy,” Don remembered, “that was a nightmare.” ‘You were so wonderful, Don, perjuring yourself, or whatever they call it, in the district attorney's office—admitting that I was your wife —wonderful dear.”

He stared with unbelieving eyes. His expression said clearly, “Mr. Monteray has been drinking.” His raised eyebrows added, “And who is the tousled person with the black eye?” The more he stared the harder they laughed.

“I beg your pardon,” he said at last, coming into the room, making an effort to put things in order. “Your bag is packed, Mr. Monteray. T went out for toothpaste. Mrs. Monteray has not come in?” This last, put as a question, was Sims’ delicate way of administering a rebuke. “What do you think, Sims?” Don asked jubilantly from the floor, still
