You
didn
’
t
expect
him
to
come
here
,
you
didn
’
t
really
think
that
he
is
afraid
of
you
,
did
you
?
But
to
have
the
others
think
he
is
—
that
’
s
quite
an
inestimable
advantage
,
isn
’
t
it
?
"
"
I
’
m

.

surprised
,
Lillian

"
"
Shouldn
’
t
you
say
‘
impressed
’
?
Your
guests
are
quite
impressed
.
I
can
practically
hear
them
thinking
all
over
the
room
.
Most
of
them
are
thinking
:
‘
If
he
has
to
seek
terms
with
Jim
Taggart
,
we
’
d
better
toe
the
line
.
’
And
a
few
are
thinking
:
‘
If
he
’
s
afraid
,
we
’
ll
get
away
with
much
more
.
’
This
is
as
you
want
it
,
of
course
—
and
I
wouldn
’
t
think
of
spoiling
your
triumph
—
but
you
and
I
are
the
only
ones
who
know
that
you
didn
’
t
achieve
it
single
-
handed
.
"
He
did
not
smile
;
he
asked
,
his
face
blank
,
his
voice
smooth
,
but
with
a
carefully
measured
hint
of
harshness
,
"
What
’
s
your
angle
?
"
She
laughed
.
"
Essentially
—
the
same
as
yours
,
Jim
.
But
speaking
practically
—
none
at
all
.
It
’
s
just
a
favor
I
’
ve
done
you
,
and
I
need
no
favor
in
return
.
Don
’
t
worry
,
I
’
m
not
lobbying
for
any
special
interests
,
I
’
m
not
after
squeezing
some
particular
directive
out
of
Mr
.
Mouch
,
I
’
m
not
even
after
a
diamond
tiara
from
you
.
Unless
,
of
course
,
it
’
s
a
tiara
of
a
non
-
material
order
,
such
as
your
appreciation
.
"
He
looked
straight
at
her
for
the
first
time
,
his
eyes
narrowed
,
his
face
relaxed
to
the
same
half
-
smile
as
hers
,
suggesting
the
expression
which
,
for
both
of
them
,
meant
that
they
felt
at
home
with
each
other
:
an
expression
of
contempt
.
"
You
know
that
I
have
always
admired
you
,
Lillian
,
as
one
of
the
truly
superior
women
.
"
"
I
’
m
aware
of
it
.
"
There
was
the
faintest
coating
of
mockery
spread
,
like
shellac
,
over
the
smooth
notes
of
her
voice
.
He
was
studying
her
insolently
.
"
You
must
forgive
me
if
I
think
that
some
curiosity
is
permissible
between
friends
,
"
he
said
,
with
no
tone
of
apology
.
"
I
’
m
wondering
from
what
angle
you
contemplate
the
possibility
of
certain
financial
burdens
—
or
losses
—
which
affect
your
own
personal
interests
.
"
She
shrugged
.
"
From
the
angle
of
a
horsewoman
,
darling
.
If
you
had
the
most
powerful
horse
in
the
world
,
you
would
keep
it
bridled
down
to
the
gait
required
to
carry
you
in
comfort
,
even
though
this
meant
the
sacrifice
of
its
full
capacity
,
even
though
its
top
speed
would
never
be
seen
and
its
great
power
would
be
wasted
.
You
would
do
it
—
because
if
you
let
the
horse
go
full
blast
,
it
would
throw
you
off
in
no
time
.
.
.
However
,
financial
aspects
are
not
my
chief
concern
—
nor
yours
,
Jim
.
