Chapter 21 ALMOST AN APOLOGY THE evening waa Tory hot. Honk brought them Iced coffea In the library. It was (till broad daylight, the terrace and the long elope to th ravine lo full aun, and tb ehedoire on tba lawn dead atllL , Jerrla went out on to the terrace, and Nan picked np a book. Aa long aa Monk was In tbe room they had talked quit easily and pleasantly; when Monk was gone there seemed to be nothing to say or too much. It waa a relief to go through the pages of a book Into another world. She had read no more than bait a chapter, when ahe heard Jerrls come back. He rang to bare the coffee taken sway, and stood by the window smoking a cigarette until the door had elosed behind Monk. Then he came over to where Nan sat by a Monk brought lead Window lacing the shadowed lawn. He stood looking down upon her. "Rather unwise of you to commit yourself like that to Tetterloy." Nan, looked up. If she was startled, she did not show It. Her yes had the wide, steady gate which roused something In him. Anger? He took It to be anger. "Dashing of coujse but a bit lnwlse, don't you think?" "I don't know at all what you Inean," said Nan. "Really!" Really." "I'm afraid you've a bad memory. It waa quite amusing to see you call Tetterley'a bluff, but I think you'd better have held your tongue. Ton aee, she's only got to look np an old Who's Who to score off you rather badly. And aa It happens, Basher Is the sort of fellow who would be sure to have cartloads of old encyclopedias and Who's Whoi knocking about tbe place." "I don't know what you mean." He sat down on tbe arm of a big hair and leaned towards her. "Oh, I think you do. Janet'a as inquisitive aa they're made. She'll go home, and abe and Basher will look np the appropriate volume I forget what year Nigel Forsyth led?" . "Nlneteen-nlneteen," said Nan. ! "Oh, you've looked It up!" "You didn't finish what yon were aylng." "Need ir "Please." He laughed, got np, crossed the room, bent to one of the lowest helves, and came back with a red book In his hand. "All right you've asked for It. Her w are! My grandfather was bit of a collector too. Her we kare Wo' Who for 191S." . He flicked over the leaves. "Here goes! 'Forsyth, Nigel Darnaway.

Re laughed. "Meaning that It was premedlat ed, and you naturally got np the documentary evidence! Bat now we come to tbe Important part 'Mar rled 1908 Constance Lavlngton." "Yes," said Nan "my mother." "It won't do," he said. "Yon were a little fool to think yon could pull It off." Nan stood np. "You don't believe me!" He smiled. "Why don't yon believe meT" He laughed. ' "Let's drop Itt But If I were yos, I should leave the ancestry vague. Nigel Forsyth Is Just a bit too well known." "Nigel Forsyth was my father, and Constance Lavlngton was my mother. Mjt father'a people were furious about the marriage because my mother was on the stage. She died when Cynthia was six months old, and my father never forgave his rather for the things he had said about her. "He went out to Mesopotamia, coffee to the library. leaving ns with a sort of aunt. Her nam was Mrs. Whipple ahe was my mother's half-sister and the widow of a Major Whipple of th regular army. My father only cams home once after the war. He died at Bagdad In nlneteen-nlneteen, There was only a very little money, Mrs. Whipple" She hesitated. "1 can't be fair to her, because sh made Cynthia Tery unhappy. 1 think she tried to do her duty. Shi wasn't fond of children. She wasn't fond of us, and she didn't under, stand Cynthia. That's why I went to Solano'a as a dancing partner I simply hsd to get Cynthia away." The ash from Jerrls clgarett. tell and powdered tbe carpet. He had been looking at her bard. His expression changed suddenly. "You mean It's true?" "It's quite easy for me to prove that It's true. I have my father's lettors I can show them lo you." His face changed again. The mo mentary embarrassment passed. He looked like a triumphant school boy. "rre fallen on my feetl I eon- gratulate myself you're too angry to do It for me of course but I'm about to apologise." She took a atep away from him. "Why didn't you believe met" He didn't answer tbe question. "You've seen Rosamund. Prob ably you know her as well aa L I didn't love her. But I did think we might make a go of It. And when she let me down It was a colossal crash. I'm taking no more chances I'll beg your pardon when I aee those letters." "You're going to make me pay Rosamund'a debt?" "Probably," returned Jervla. Nan flared np. "But auppoae I won't pay!" aha demanded hotly. Copyrtoht.
