She nodded, surprised to find that her eyes had suddenly filled with tears. Why, she did not know. What[159] had she been about to confess to him? It was just as well Billie had interrupted.

��Colin,�� she said gently, ��why did you let me marry Gilbert? I asked you once before in a different form. I think��I am almost sure, I was ripe for love in those old days when we used to poke round picture-galleries and book-shops together. I was always perfectly happy with you. Didn��t that mean love? Why didn��t you tell me?��

Richards�� voice was heard at the door. ��Mr. Iverson.��

��He��s known all the time,�� went on Claudia, stroking her hair, as she would have a child��s. ��It��s been a terrible burden, Fay. You can see from his face how he has been brooding over it. Jack��s never had to bear any[327] kind of trouble in his life before. The world has been all rose-leaves for him. I think he��s been putting up a bit of a fight, too, because he hates trouble and illness, and all the uncomfortable things of life. He��s come pretty regularly to see you, hasn��t he?��

It was not a bit as Claudia had planned it, but she found herself obediently drinking the health of her brother and sister-in-law in very bad and very sweet champagne.

��I say! I shall expect at least to get a ball in my eye or a gentle tap with the brassie. Still, let me like a golfer fall! I��ll take you on. And, Gilbert, what��s your form?��

That was all he could make out of her explanation, her confession! It was a shock, but it had the effect of steadying her. Her voice was very quiet and composed as she replied:

Gilbert looked at her curiously. Did Claudia not think about getting married? He hazarded a question in a bantering, rather intimate way.

��Unsuccessful in the one thing that he really wants,�� replied the man at the easel, with a quick glance at her.
