She was Much too clever to irritate when she held the whip hand, knowing that men as well as worms will turn, All she wanted of Brent was money. That, she felt, would not be difficult to obtain.

Carmel grew weary {of trying to entertain him and toid him flatly that she wanted a check. “How much?” Brent asked lacon- Ically. “A thousand will do, darling.” “It will,” Brent satd tartly, “and so will five hundred.” Carmel shrugged. “Will you dine with me next Sunday?” she smiled, Brent gave her a level look. “You never heard of a dead goose laying an cgg, Carmel.” he said quietly, “Be yourself, old girl.” “Myself bows to your superior wisdom,” Carmel returned. “But don't be stingy, dear.
