PAGE FOUR SYNOPSIS: Georgie Bancroft goes to Nicholas Boyd's flat to ask wh} ‘ondon without tate | ‘omised to do. Bernie Boyd, Nicholas’ wife, éomes in, makes a terrific scene, and is ordered out by Nicholas. Nicholas explains that he has ‘eritten Georgie, that in epite of his Teve for her he must go away, be- couse Bernie will not divorce him. Georgie tells Nicholas that she will remain his, come what may. Chapter 44 EVELYN SPEAKS SPITE of everything Georgie slept soundly that night; she stemed to drift into blissful uncon- aciousness as soon as her head touched the pillow, and it was late in the morning when she awoke. The sun was shining outside, sending long golden fingers poking Inquisitively between the undrawn curtains, and she lay for a moment watching them sleepily, before she rémembered. It was another day, and Nicholas bad gone. The midnight train had carried him out of her life, perhaps forever. She lay motionless for some time with a terrible sense of loss, then suddenly she remembered that there was still his letter. It was like a last link between them that still held, and while. it held she could not quite despair. She rang the bell, and when the maid came she asked for tea. “And please will you see ff there’ are any letters?” “Phen she slipped out of bed and drew back the curtains. It was a lovely morning, and a {aint new hope crept into her heart. Things were never so hopeless when the sun shone, Or were they worse? Tt was terrible to be alone on a grey, rainy day, but perhaps it was harder when the sun was shining, and the world was a beautiful place 4a which to be happy. She looked at herself in the mir- ror; her face was quite colorless and her eyes showed signs of tears, and Georgie was conscious of a faint disappointment, Surely she ought to have grown beautiful since Nicholas kissed her? She thought of Bernie, and then resolutely she thrust the thought abid would not permit any ugly memories to spoil her briet hap- piness of last night, The maid came back with the tea- tray and two letters, %, Georgie pounced upon them fe verishly, but one was a bill and the othér which she threw aside was addressed in Clifford Asher’s writ- Nothing from Nicholas. But he ‘had told her he had written. “Are 7>u sure there were only “Yes, Miss.” . The little cold feeling was creep- Georgie'’s heart again; it would have meant so 3 to her, and if/atter all it never But it would come, of course it 4 She drank her toa and was (dréssiig slowly when Evelyn ar- itived. | “Oh, so you are awake,” she said, !“Do you know what the time is?” Georgie had forgotten about time, It ceased to matter since last Lt it. “It’s halt-past eleven,” her mother jsaid tartly. “A girl of your age fought not to want so much sleep. Why are you looking so washed jout?” “I had a headache, I told you,” Georgie said. Evelyn came further into the Toom. do Tknow you told me that you had a headache,” she said. “And I certainly left you in bed before I Went to the theater last night, but {when Bishop and I came home, your {ded was empty, and you were out. Where did you go?” “To see a friend,” Geo said. | “What friend may I ask?” “Nobody you know.” “That means you do not intend to tell me. Well, as it happens I al- jready know.” Evelyn said. ‘There was a sharp silence, then ‘Georgie spoke. “Well, if you know, you need not jhave asked me.” She saw the hot color rise to her mother's face, “There is no need to add impert!- jmence to untruths,” Evelyn said. |"And I imagine that since I brought |you to London your whole life has ‘heen a tissue of untruths now I know what I know, How long have you known this—thig Nicholas Boyd, may | ask?” Georgie caught her breath. Was she to be thrust back again into the ugliness of unspeakable things? She waited in positive agony for her mother’s next words. They came quickly. “| might bave known that you would abuse my kindness, and dis- grace me. Compromising yourself with a common film man, and a for- gotten one at that. After the trouble T have taken to introduce you to de cent people, to run after a creature of that description. Heavens only knows what Bishop will say.” Georgie almost laughed; it seemed funny to drag Bishop in when he and Bernie... Evelyn went on again. “I received a letter from the man’s wife this morning, complaining of your friendliness with her husband. She tells me that you have been in the habit of visiting his flat. Is that 80?” “Yes.” “And you can stand there and ad- mit it?" Evelyn stormed, “Have you taken leave of your senses, or is this the influence of the life from which Ihave done my best to rescue you?” “1 don’t know what you mean,” Georgie said patiently, - “You goon Will know, when you ‘aré dragged through’ the ‘divorce tourts as & Co-respondent,”_ Brelya answered cruelly. “Bernie as the creature cails herself, wil get ‘all ths'notoriety’ shé'can out of the case, you tiark nly words. How you could so far forget yourself arid what is dus to me, as to mix up with such people, is more than I can under- stand.” ‘ “I thought Miss Boyd was a friend of yours,” Georgie said, “A friend!” Evelyn cast her eyes up to Heaven. “Isn’t it possible for you to discriminate in anything? Everyone mixes with film people nowadays, up to a point, but when it comes to allowing a married man to entice you to his flat—a girl of your position.” EORGIE'S eyes flamed. “He did not entice me,” she said passionately, “I went of my own accord.” 5 “Then you are doubly disgraced,” Evelyn was almost incoherent in her rage. “And what does this man Propose to do now?” she demanded. “Is he prepared to face the scandal, ‘to ind by you?” “He's gone away,” Georgie said. Her mother laughed. “Gone away! Exactly what I ex: pected; exactly what a man of his type would do, Is it likely that he could care seriously for # girl like you? Gone away! Well, you had bet- ter go after him, that’s all I ean say. I have finished with you from this moment.” Georgie went very white. “Where can I go?” she asked. “Where you like, anywhere. Back to your uncle, I should think, if he will take you in: It's the only-place you are fit.for!” 4 “Shall I go today?” Georgie asked. “You had better go at once, this morning, before Bishop hears what T have to tell him.” “Very well,” Georgie said quietly. “But I should just like to say be fore 1 go, that there fs no reason for nothing to be ashamed of, nothing that I shall be ashamed of ever.” Evelyn's lips curled into a sarcas- tic smile. “Is that so?” she said ironically, “Then perhaps you can explain a let- ter which came this morning from this man Boyd. Yes, | opened it,” as Georgie gave'a little cry, “It was my daty to open {ft after what I have Heard, and if 1 wanted proof of Miss Boyd's story, I found it*in that let- ter. A man does not write passion- ate love letters to any girl uhless she has given him good reason to.” She broke off as Georgie caught her by the arm, shaking her. “Give me my letter, Diease!” “I have destroyed !t," Evelyn sald sharply. “And there !s no need to stand there and look like a trag- edy queen. The whole affair is an utter scandal, and I am only sorry I was ever foolish enough to expect anything better of you. You can go back to your uncle. Fortunately es Tam leaving for Scotland so soon it will not seem strange. You hear what I say?" “Yes,” Georgie said slowly. “Yes, 1 hear.” (Copyright. 1983, Doubleaey Doren) please, Still another hard blew ewaite 'e, tomorrow, THE ARTMAN PRESS PRINTING IN THE CITIZEN BLDG.
