(NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY) Gloria turned then, and looked straight at Miss Briggs. “1 want to talk to my hushand. Will you please leave us alone?" she asked coldly. The secretary did not meet Gloria's eyes. But she walked slowly out of the office. The door closed behind her, Gloria opened her handbag and laid the check Dick had sent her, down upon his desk. “There's your money. 1've brought it back to you,"” she said, “T don’t | want anything from you, Dicl.” She raised her questioning eyes fo his face. “What was the big idea in sending it to me?" she asked. Under her eyes, Dick flushed darkly. Gloria could sce that he was embarassed, “I thought you understood that 1 was going to take care of you,” he said. I told you that if you lived with your folks, 1'a see that you had plenty of money. . . . I'll send | you $50 every week, just as I said I would.” Gloria shook her head. “No, you won't,” she contradicted, “because 1 shan't take it, 1'm going back to work this morning.

Dick hissed, frowning. “Be careful or Miss Briggs will hear you! Hush!" Gloria sank down on the floor and aid her head on the seat of Dick's swivel chair, “What do T care if she hears me or not!” she sald thickly. All T care about is geiting home, again!" “Please, please don't treat me like this,” she sobbed.
