No
,
I
wo
n't
!
If
I
ca
n't
pay
I
wo
n't
come
,
"
replied
Aileen
.
"
You
'll
have
to
let
me
do
that
.
"
She
knew
that
the
Calligans
could
not
afford
to
keep
her
.
"
Well
,
we
'll
not
talk
about
that
now
,
anyhow
,
"
replied
Mrs.
Calligan
.
"
You
can
come
when
you
like
and
stay
as
long
as
you
like
.
Reach
me
some
clean
napkins
,
Mamie
.
"
Aileen
remained
for
luncheon
,
and
left
soon
afterward
to
keep
her
suggested
appointment
with
Cowperwood
,
feeling
satisfied
that
her
main
problem
had
been
solved
.
Now
her
way
was
clear
.
She
could
come
here
if
she
wanted
to
.
It
was
simply
a
matter
of
collecting
a
few
necessary
things
or
coming
without
bringing
anything
.
Perhaps
Frank
would
have
something
to
suggest
.
In
the
meantime
Cowperwood
made
no
effort
to
communicate
with
Aileen
since
the
unfortunate
discovery
of
their
meeting
place
,
but
had
awaited
a
letter
from
her
,
which
was
not
long
in
coming
.
And
,
as
usual
,
it
was
a
long
,
optimistic
,
affectionate
,
and
defiant
screed
in
which
she
related
all
that
had
occurred
to
her
and
her
present
plan
of
leaving
home
.
This
last
puzzled
and
troubled
him
not
a
little
.
Aileen
in
the
bosom
of
her
family
,
smart
and
well-cared
for
,
was
one
thing
.
Aileen
out
in
the
world
dependent
on
him
was
another
.
He
had
never
imagined
that
she
would
be
compelled
to
leave
before
he
was
prepared
to
take
her
;
and
if
she
did
now
,
it
might
stir
up
complications
which
would
be
anything
but
pleasant
to
contemplate
.
Still
he
was
fond
of
her
,
very
,
and
would
do
anything
to
make
her
happy
.
He
could
support
her
in
a
very
respectable
way
even
now
,
if
he
did
not
eventually
go
to
prison
,
and
even
there
he
might
manage
to
make
some
shift
for
her
.
It
would
be
so
much
better
,
though
,
if
he
could
persuade
her
to
remain
at
home
until
he
knew
exactly
what
his
fate
was
to
be
.
He
never
doubted
but
that
some
day
,
whatever
happened
,
within
a
reasonable
length
of
time
,
he
would
be
rid
of
all
these
complications
and
well-to-do
again
,
in
which
case
,
if
he
could
get
a
divorce
,
he
wanted
to
marry
Aileen
.
If
not
,
he
would
take
her
with
him
anyhow
,
and
from
this
point
of
view
it
might
be
just
as
well
as
if
she
broke
away
from
her
family
now
.
But
from
the
point
of
view
of
present
complications
--
the
search
Butler
would
make
--
it
might
be
dangerous
.
He
might
even
publicly
charge
him
with
abduction
.
He
therefore
decided
to
persuade
Aileen
to
stay
at
home
,
drop
meetings
and
communications
for
the
time
being
,
and
even
go
abroad
.
He
would
be
all
right
until
she
came
back
and
so
would
she
--
common
sense
ought
to
rule
in
this
case
.
With
all
this
in
mind
he
set
out
to
keep
the
appointment
she
suggested
in
her
letter
,
nevertheless
feeling
it
a
little
dangerous
to
do
so
.
"
Are
you
sure
,
"
he
asked
,
after
he
had
listened
to
her
description
of
the
Calligan
homestead
,
"
that
you
would
like
it
there
?
It
sounds
rather
poor
to
me
.
"
"
Yes
,
but
I
like
them
so
much
,
"
replied
Aileen
.
"
And
you
're
sure
they
wo
n't
tell
on
you
?
"
"
Oh
,
no
;
never
,
never
!
"
