“
To
him
.
”
She
stiffened
.
“
I
’
ve
said
all
there
is
to
say
.
”
Anna
drew
back
,
her
eyes
on
her
step
-
son
.
He
had
left
the
threshold
and
was
advancing
toward
Sophy
Viner
with
a
motion
of
desperate
appeal
;
but
as
he
did
so
there
was
a
knock
on
the
door
.
A
moment
’
s
silence
fell
on
the
three
;
then
Anna
said
:
“
Come
in
!
”

Darrow
came
into
the
room
.
Seeing
the
three
together
,
he
looked
rapidly
from
one
to
the
other
;
then
he
turned
to
Anna
with
a
smile
.
“
I
came
up
to
see
if
you
were
ready
;
but
please
send
me
off
if
I
’
m
not
wanted
.
”
His
look
,
his
voice
,
the
simple
sense
of
his
presence
,
restored
Anna
’
s
shaken
balance
.
By
Owen
’
s
side
he
looked
so
strong
,
so
urbane
,
so
experienced
,
that
the
lad
’
s
passionate
charges
dwindled
to
mere
boyish
vapourings
.
A
moment
ago
she
had
dreaded
Darrow
’
s
coming
;
now
she
was
glad
that
he
was
there
.
She
turned
to
him
with
sudden
decision
.
“
Come
in
,
please
;
I
want
you
to
hear
what
Owen
has
been
saying
.

She
caught
a
murmur
from
Sophy
Viner
,
but
disregarded
it
.
An
illuminating
impulse
urged
her
on
.
She
,
habitually
so
aware
of
her
own
lack
of
penetration
,
her
small
skill
in
reading
hidden
motives
and
detecting
secret
signals
,
now
felt
herself
mysteriously
inspired
.
She
addressed
herself
to
Sophy
Viner
.
“
It
’
s
much
better
for
you
both
that
this
absurd
question
should
be
cleared
up
now
.
”
Then
,
turning
to
Darrow
,
she
continued
:
“
For
some
reason
that
I
don
’
t
pretend
to
guess
,
Owen
has
taken
it
into
his
head
that
you
’
ve
influenced
Miss
Viner
to
break
her
engagement
.
”
She
spoke
slowly
and
deliberately
,
because
she
wished
to
give
time
and
to
gain
it
;
time
for
Darrow
and
Sophy
to
receive
the
full
impact
of
what
she
was
saying
,
and
time
to
observe
its
full
effect
on
them
.
She
had
said
to
herself
:
“
If
there
’
s
nothing
between
them
,
they
’
ll
look
at
each
other
;
if
there
is
something
,
they
won
’
t
;
”
and
as
she
ceased
to
speak
she
felt
as
if
all
her
life
were
in
her
eyes
.
