He
smiled
mirthlessly
,
spreading
his
hands
out
,
as
if
to
show
her
that
this
was
what
he
had
predicted
and
had
wanted
to
avoid
.
She
said
quietly
,
"
I
have
to
try
,
Francisco
.
I
have
to
make
the
request
.
That
’
s
my
part
.
What
you
’
ll
do
about
it
is
yours
.
But
I
’
ll
know
that
I
’
ve
tried
everything
.
"
He
remained
standing
,
but
he
inclined
his
head
a
little
,
in
assent
,
and
said
,
"
I
will
listen
,
if
that
will
help
you
.
"
"
I
need
fifteen
million
dollars
to
complete
the
Rio
Norte
Line
,
I
have
obtained
seven
million
against
the
Taggart
stock
I
own
free
and
clear
.
I
can
raise
nothing
else
.
I
will
issue
bonds
in
the
name
of
my
new
company
,
in
the
amount
of
eight
million
dollars
.
I
called
you
here
to
ask
you
to
buy
these
bonds
.
"
He
did
not
answer
.
"
I
am
simply
a
beggar
,
Francisco
,
and
I
am
begging
you
for
money
.
I
had
always
thought
that
one
did
not
beg
in
business
.
I
thought
that
one
stood
on
the
merit
of
what
one
had
to
offer
,
and
gave
value
for
value
.
This
is
not
so
any
more
,
though
I
don
’
t
understand
how
we
can
act
on
any
other
rule
and
continue
to
exist
.
Judging
by
every
objective
fact
,
the
Rio
Norte
Line
is
to
be
the
best
railroad
in
the
country
.
Judging
by
every
known
standard
,
it
is
the
best
investment
possible
.
And
that
is
what
damns
me
.
I
cannot
raise
money
by
offering
people
a
good
business
venture
:
the
fact
that
it
’
s
good
,
makes
people
reject
it
.
There
is
no
bank
that
would
buy
the
bonds
of
my
company
.
So
I
can
’
t
plead
merit
.
I
can
only
plead
.
"
Her
voice
was
pronouncing
the
words
with
impersonal
precision
.
She
stopped
,
waiting
for
his
answer
.
He
remained
silent
.
"
I
know
that
I
have
nothing
to
offer
you
,
"
she
said
.
"
I
can
’
t
speak
to
you
in
terms
of
investment
.
You
don
’
t
care
to
make
money
.
Industrial
projects
have
ceased
to
concern
you
long
ago
.
So
I
won
’
t
pretend
that
it
’
s
a
fair
exchange
.
It
’
s
just
begging
.
"
She
drew
her
breath
and
said
,
"
Give
me
that
money
as
alms
,
because
it
means
nothing
to
you
.
"
"
Don
’
t
,
"
he
said
,
his
voice
low
.
She
could
not
tell
whether
the
strange
sound
of
it
was
pain
or
anger
;
his
eyes
were
lowered
.
