Chapter 25 HOPE REBELS WHAT Betty Preaton said, even as he accepted the promised money (or ber nervous, bootlegging Twosome, hardly mattered; but cer tainly Hope had outgrown her queenly reign In the younger smart set. She was known In her own circle as a wild 'un, and was consid ered by the fond parents of fifty miles radius "an unwholesome Influ ence." As a tombstone, deliberately raised, Hope refused polntblank to "come out" She laughed at the Idea raucously. She come out! It was too Idiotic! Bhe, who had been a horrified whisper In Westchester, In Harmouth, and In Italy, protested triumphantly against Mama's man gled pride, and decided that society should never know her officially. Again Hope found two steady and reliable reins In guiding the balky .horse ot her caroer. Rusty Crandall, now out of college himself, and con fined from ten to tour In the offices of his father's huge chocolate firm while Hope went horseback riding each morning, generally In the com pany of Rusty Crandall. More and more frequently Hope drove over to her sister's bouse In the afternoons, staying only when Goody was alone. and finding a strange solace in long talks with the puszling stranger who had grown up with her. Often, Hope would sit for long spaces In silence, while Goody checked bills or made out weekly menus, or wrote Invitations to dinner parties. Lis tening to Goody's quiet, low-voiced confidences with only occasional monosyllables for an answer. It was a strange friendship be tween the sisters who had grown up despising each other. At sight of Mope, Goody would set about mix ing a highball (which she never drank herself) and upon each visit Hope would drag a new piece of linen, a boudoir clock, n etching, or a fresh supply of liquor and would frown upon Goody If she dared express gratitude. Yes, strange companionship and under, standing, especially when Ooodj was a bit frightened of her husband't criticism of Hope, and especially above all, whon she longed to break faith with the Rossos Sr., and toll the thinning, mousy-eed child ol all that happened to Dickey In the billiard room. But n exaggerated honor sealed Goody's Hps, and as Hope was sent out to a dude ranch In Wyoming. where Angel had been given him as bis personal socrotary. (She suc ceeded In running Rusty's ofllce so that he might go out and enjoy him self; Angol knew much more about the business than Rusty ever would.) And Judy Hunt, who had made a debut (and au exceedingly successful one, her parents' finan cial reverses notwithstanding) while Hopo was abroad that tall. Judy and Rusty. That was all that Hope's life held. With a generous sprinkling of Goody who wanted desperately to be kind In spite ot the taot that Charlie vigorously dis approved ot Hope. Hope wondered at Goody. Marriage seemed to have humanized her; love seemed to have softened her. It was her turn, now, to pity Hope. The tables were turned. But she did her pitying with magnificent kindness and ease. Hope marveled and turned to her sister with mute appeal, halt hat ing herself for doing It, and never really confiding, for somehow she knew that with all Goody's new but very natural sweetness, she would tell anything and everything to Charlie. And as a result Charlie would grunt otteiior at In eight u! his wlfo's young shUr. a 'id et'.tl-lts her the moro for her clornal refits In drink. In the spring, Hopo took a four weeks' trip with Judy to Bermuda, accepting without protest Papa's In slstence upon a chaperon. This chaperon, oue Mrs. Manly, wae a forlorn remnant of the Ross family on Mama's side. A woman who had been too true to be good, and who, as a widow of a war hero, was t err ing with magiilllcent grace. The trip to Bermuda, however, was cut short hy a week because Massy was taken 111. Back to New York rushed Hope, magnificently tanned and far moro rested and steadied than she drentned. And In ber trail came Mrs. Manly, slight ly brokenhearted at having so abruptly to end her first vacation In seven years, and Judy who had quite tired of Hornmdn anyway. Satny, given personal treatment and home visits by the best cat doc- tor In New York, recovered shortly, and Hope breathed with a relief thai brought a puff of disgust from Mnina Ross. The spring dragged Interminably exaggerated pride kept Hope's closed, so the two talked of every thing but a hapless marriage In the face of a blissful marriage. Often, too, when she was In town shopping, Hope would drop over to the tiny apartment In Gramercy Park that was Mrs. Manly's home. There she would listen to past sor rows, untarnished joys and tri umphs, unforgotten heartaches and grief. Those hours with Mrs. Manly seeped Into Hope's heart. A life spread out before her a story lived and told her for the first time a human being capable of sitting back and taking the rough deals when life bad bold so much. It drew Hope strangely close, particularly when without a painful word betwee:i them, Mrs. Manly understood Hope' listless sllenoe, and unders'roc about Sassy. . , .
