Oh
,
I
do
n't
mind
guessing
,
"
she
commented
,
superiorly
,
"
though
I
sha
'n'
t
take
it
.
It
might
be
a
pin
,
it
might
be
a
set
of
ear-rings
,
it
might
be
a
bracelet
--
"
He
made
no
comment
,
but
opened
it
,
revealing
a
necklace
of
gold
wrought
into
the
form
of
a
grape-vine
of
the
most
curious
workmanship
,
with
a
cluster
of
leaves
artistically
carved
and
arranged
as
a
breastpiece
,
the
center
of
them
formed
by
a
black
opal
,
which
shone
with
an
enticing
luster
.
Lynde
knew
well
enough
that
Aileen
was
familiar
with
many
jewels
,
and
that
only
one
of
ornate
construction
and
value
would
appeal
to
her
sense
of
what
was
becoming
to
her
.
He
watched
her
face
closely
while
she
studied
the
details
of
the
necklace
.
"
Is
n't
it
exquisite
!
"
she
commented
.
"
What
a
lovely
opal
--
what
an
odd
design
.
"
She
went
over
the
separate
leaves
.
"
You
should
n't
be
so
foolish
.
I
could
n't
take
it
.
I
have
too
many
things
as
it
is
,
and
besides
--
"
She
was
thinking
of
what
she
would
say
if
Cowperwood
chanced
to
ask
her
where
she
got
it
.
He
was
so
intuitive
.
"
And
besides
?
"
he
queried
.
"
Nothing
,
"
she
replied
,
"
except
that
I
must
n't
take
it
,
really
.
"
"
Wo
n't
you
take
it
as
a
souvenir
even
if
--
our
agreement
,
you
know
.
"
"
Even
if
what
?
"
she
queried
.
"
Even
if
nothing
else
comes
of
it
.
A
memento
,
then
--
truly
--
you
know
.
"
He
laid
hold
of
her
fingers
with
his
cool
,
vigorous
ones
.
A
year
before
,
even
six
months
,
Aileen
would
have
released
her
hand
smilingly
.
Now
she
hesitated
.
Why
should
she
be
so
squeamish
with
other
men
when
Cowperwood
was
so
unkind
to
her
?
"
Tell
me
something
,
"
Lynde
asked
,
noting
the
doubt
and
holding
her
fingers
gently
but
firmly
,
"
do
you
care
for
me
at
all
?
"
