At least it seemed to Phlllipa

the subject now, and ahe felt she
ought to aay something that
would help to cover her bitter

I suppose aha knows you area t

it upset him to know that Natalie

She didn't quite like the word
"upset". It didn't adequately de

Alan himself could not have
analyzed for her what was in his
mind. . When he received Natalie's
letter, he read It with surprise as
his paramount emotion. Then he
began, almost Imperceptibly and
unconsciously, to be thrilled.
It was a short letter, little more
than a note, but perfect as Nata

simply said she was returning, and

Wbat ho did not know, to help
him understand her attitude, was
that Natalie's mother had taken a
hand in her daughter's marital af

been closed.
Natalie hadn't known what to
say about It at first. Her heart
agreed with what her mother said.
She knew she loved Alan. Being
