“ You are worrying about some
thing,” Karl said. “What troubles
you?”
What would he think if he really
knew? When she remained silent,
Karl changed the subject. “ By the
way, did you see Paul Sherman last
night?”
She hesitated for one cautious mo
ment before she said, “ Yes, I did.”
Karl's smile was untroubled. “Ah?
I am glad he found you. I sent him
after you. I forgot to mention it
last night when you got back to the
office.”
Joan's eyes widened. Karl had
sent Paul after her? Certainly Paul
had not given her that impression.
"Don't you believe me?” Karl
asked softly and Joan felt the color
rush into her checks.
Karl, however, did not seem an
gry. He paid the check and to
gether they walked to where he had
parked his car.
It was not until they reached the
beach that Karl stopped and said

“We’re engaged, Syb! We re go
ing to be married in two or three
months."
“Karl asked you to marry him?”
Sybil usked unbelievingly. "That's a
beautiful emerald, Joan! Must have
cost a fortune."
“ You don’t seem very enthusias
tic.”
“ Frankly I'm not,” Sybil con
fessed.
"I suppose you would have been
better pleased if Karl and I hud
quit,” Joan said coldly.
Sybil was silent for a moment,
then said, “ You're not going to be
married for at least two months?"
"That's right. Sybil, what's the
matter with you? You act so mys
terious lately. Is anything wrong?”
“Not a thing in the world," Sybil
denied. “I Just wondered, that's
all.”
Joan could not worry about Syb
il’s meaning now. She could not
worry about anything. Karl wanted
to marry her! His ring gleamed on
her white hand! She could scarcely
wait to see Paul Sherman and tell
him the good news, but Paul did
not appear at the Club Elite that
night or for several nights to come.
And then one night, as Joan sat
alone in the office typing, Paul Sher
man made an appearance. He was
os good-looking, as debonair and
cheerful as ever.
"Did you miss me?" he inquired,
grinning at Joan. “ Karl sent me
out of town.”
Joan smiled. She was going to
enjoy telling Paul. He had been
so sure about Karl, so prejudiced.
“Not much,” she informed him
airily. "A lot has happened while
you were gone.”
"Such as what?”
“ Karl and I are going to be mar
ried,” she said proudly.
