She
heaved
a
deep
,
heartfelt
sigh
.
"
Then
we
really
have
n't
anything
at
all
,
have
we
,
mother
--
property
or
anything
else
?
"
Mrs.
Carter
shook
her
head
,
meaning
no
.
"
And
the
money
we
have
been
spending
is
Mr.
Cowperwood
's
?
"
"
Yes
.
"
Berenice
paused
and
looked
out
the
window
over
the
wide
stretch
of
park
which
it
commanded
.
Framed
in
it
like
a
picture
were
a
small
lake
,
a
hill
of
trees
,
with
a
Japanese
pagoda
effect
in
the
foreground
.
Over
the
hill
were
the
yellow
towering
walls
of
a
great
hotel
in
Central
Park
West
.
In
the
street
below
could
be
heard
the
jingle
of
street-cars
.
On
a
road
in
the
park
could
be
seen
a
moving
line
of
pleasure
vehicles
--
society
taking
an
airing
in
the
chill
November
afternoon
.
"
Poverty
,
ostracism
,
"
she
thought
.
And
should
she
marry
rich
?
Of
course
,
if
she
could
.
And
whom
should
she
marry
?
The
Lieutenant
?
Never
He
was
really
not
masterful
enough
mentally
,
and
he
had
witnessed
her
discomfiture
.
And
who
,
then
?
Oh
,
the
long
line
of
sillies
,
light-weights
,
rakes
,
ne'er
-
do-wells
,
who
,
combined
with
sober
,
prosperous
,
conventional
,
muddle-headed
oofs
,
constituted
society
.
Here
and
there
,
at
far
jumps
,
was
a
real
man
,
but
would
he
be
interested
in
her
if
he
knew
the
whole
truth
about
her
?
"
Have
you
broken
with
Mr.
Braxmar
?
"
asked
her
mother
,
curiously
,
nervously
,
hopefully
,
hopelessly
.
"
I
have
n't
seen
him
since
,
"
replied
Berenice
,
lying
conservatively
.
"
I
do
n't
know
whether
I
shall
or
not
.
I
want
to
think
.
"
She
arose
.
"
But
do
n't
you
mind
,
mother
.
Only
I
wish
we
had
some
other
way
of
living
besides
being
dependent
on
Mr.
Cowperwood
.
