The
latter
smiled
.
"
I
expected
something
like
this
,
Judah
,
to
tell
you
the
truth
,
"
he
said
,
easily
.
"
I
've
expected
it
all
along
.
You
need
n't
worry
about
me
.
I
know
all
about
this
.
I
've
seen
which
way
the
wind
is
blowing
,
and
I
know
how
to
trim
my
sails
.
"
Addison
reached
out
and
took
his
hand
.
"
But
do
n't
resign
,
whatever
you
do
,
"
he
said
,
cautiously
.
"
That
would
be
a
confession
of
weakness
,
and
they
do
n't
expect
you
to
.
I
would
n't
want
you
to
.
Stand
your
ground
.
This
whole
thing
will
blow
over
.
They
're
jealous
,
I
think
.
"
"
I
never
intended
to
,
"
replied
Cowperwood
.
"
There
's
no
legitimate
charge
against
me
.
I
know
it
will
all
blow
over
if
I
'm
given
time
enough
.
"
Nevertheless
he
was
chagrined
to
think
that
he
should
be
subjected
to
such
a
conversation
as
this
with
any
one
.
Similarly
in
other
ways
"
society
"
--
so
called
--
was
quite
able
to
enforce
its
mandates
and
conclusions
.
The
one
thing
that
Cowperwood
most
resented
,
when
he
learned
of
it
much
later
,
was
a
snub
direct
given
to
Aileen
at
the
door
of
the
Norrie
Simmses
'
;
she
called
there
only
to
be
told
that
Mrs.
Simms
was
not
at
home
,
although
the
carriages
of
others
were
in
the
street
.
A
few
days
afterward
Aileen
,
much
to
his
regret
and
astonishment
--
for
he
did
not
then
know
the
cause
--
actually
became
ill
.
If
it
had
not
been
for
Cowperwood
's
eventual
financial
triumph
over
all
opposition
--
the
complete
routing
of
the
enemy
--
in
the
struggle
for
control
in
the
gas
situation
--
the
situation
would
have
been
hard
,
indeed
.
As
it
was
,
Aileen
suffered
bitterly
;
she
felt
that
the
slight
was
principally
directed
at
her
,
and
would
remain
in
force
.
In
the
privacy
of
their
own
home
they
were
compelled
eventually
to
admit
,
the
one
to
the
other
,
that
their
house
of
cards
,
resplendent
and
forceful
looking
as
it
was
,
had
fallen
to
the
ground
.
Personal
confidences
between
people
so
closely
united
are
really
the
most
trying
of
all
.
Human
souls
are
constantly
trying
to
find
each
other
,
and
rarely
succeeding
.
"
You
know
,
"
he
finally
said
to
her
once
,
when
he
came
in
rather
unexpectedly
and
found
her
sick
in
bed
,
her
eyes
wet
,
and
her
maid
dismissed
for
the
day
,
"
I
understand
what
this
is
all
about
.
To
tell
you
the
truth
,
Aileen
,
I
rather
expected
it
.
We
have
been
going
too
fast
,
you
and
I
.
We
have
been
pushing
this
matter
too
hard
.
Now
,
I
do
n't
like
to
see
you
taking
it
this
way
,
dear
.
This
battle
is
n't
lost
.
Why
,
I
thought
you
had
more
courage
than
this
.
Let
me
tell
you
something
which
you
do
n't
seem
to
remember
.
Money
will
solve
all
this
sometime
.
I
'm
winning
in
this
fight
right
now
,
and
I
'll
win
in
others
.
They
are
coming
to
me
.
Why
,
dearie
,
you
ought
n't
to
despair
.
You
're
too
young
.
I
never
do
.
You
'll
win
yet
.
We
can
adjust
this
matter
right
here
in
Chicago
,
and
when
we
do
we
will
pay
up
a
lot
of
scores
at
the
same
time
.
We
're
rich
,
and
we
're
going
to
be
richer
.
That
will
settle
it
.
Now
put
on
a
good
face
and
look
pleased
;
there
are
plenty
of
things
to
live
for
in
this
world
besides
society
.
Get
up
now
and
dress
,
and
we
'll
go
for
a
drive
and
dinner
down-town
.
You
have
me
yet
.
Is
n't
that
something
?
"
"
Oh
yes
,
"
sighed
Aileen
,
heavily
;
but
she
sank
back
again
.
She
put
her
arms
about
his
neck
and
cried
,
as
much
out
of
joy
over
the
consolation
he
offered
as
over
the
loss
she
had
endured
.
"
It
was
as
much
for
you
as
for
me
,
"
she
sighed
.
"
I
know
that
,
"
he
soothed
;
"
but
do
n't
worry
about
it
now
.
You
will
come
out
all
right
.
We
both
will
.
Come
,
get
up
