As
a
matter
of
fact
,
she
was
in
a
most
hopeless
quandary
.
Here
was
a
man
whom
she
thoroughly
liked
,
who
exercised
an
influence
over
her
,
sufficient
almost
to
delude
her
into
the
belief
that
she
was
possessed
of
a
lively
passion
for
him
.
She
was
still
the
victim
of
his
keen
eyes
,
his
suave
manners
,
his
fine
clothes
.
She
looked
and
saw
before
her
a
man
who
was
most
gracious
and
sympathetic
,
who
leaned
toward
her
with
a
feeling
that
was
a
delight
to
observe
.
She
could
not
resist
the
glow
of
his
temperament
,
the
light
of
his
eye
.
She
could
hardly
keep
from
feeling
what
he
felt
.
And
yet
she
was
not
without
thoughts
which
were
disturbing
.
What
did
he
know
?
What
had
Drouet
told
him
?
Was
she
a
wife
in
his
eyes
,
or
what
?
Would
he
marry
her
?
Even
while
he
talked
,
and
she
softened
,
and
her
eyes
were
lighted
with
a
tender
glow
,
she
was
asking
herself
if
Drouet
had
told
him
they
were
not
married
.
There
was
never
anything
at
all
convincing
about
what
Drouet
said
.
And
yet
she
was
not
grieved
at
Hurstwood
’
s
love
.
No
strain
of
bitterness
was
in
it
for
her
,
whatever
he
knew
.
He
was
evidently
sincere
.
His
passion
was
real
and
warm
.
There
was
power
in
what
he
said
.
What
should
she
do
?
She
went
on
thinking
this
,
answering
vaguely
,
languishing
affectionately
,
and
altogether
drifting
,
until
she
was
on
a
borderless
sea
of
speculation
.
“
Why
don
’
t
you
come
away
?
”
he
said
,
tenderly
.
“
I
will
arrange
for
you
whatever
—
”
“
Oh
,
don
’
t
,
”
said
Carrie
.
“
Don
’
t
what
?
”
he
asked
.
“
What
do
you
mean
?
”
There
was
a
look
of
confusion
and
pain
in
her
face
.
She
was
wondering
why
that
miserable
thought
must
be
brought
in
.
She
was
struck
as
by
a
blade
with
the
miserable
provision
which
was
outside
the
pale
of
marriage
.
He
himself
realized
that
it
was
a
wretched
thing
to
have
dragged
in
.
He
wanted
to
weigh
the
effects
of
it
,
and
yet
he
could
not
see
.
He
went
beating
on
,
flushed
by
her
presence
,
clearly
awakened
,
intensely
enlisted
in
his
plan
.
“
Won
’
t
you
come
?
”
he
said
,
beginning
over
and
with
a
more
reverent
feeling
.
“
You
know
I
can
’
t
do
without
you
—
you
know
it
—
it
can
’
t
go
on
this
way
—
can
it
?
”
