Charles
smiled
with
his
gentle
,
rather
melancholy
eyes
.
"
What
have
you
been
doing
,
Tom
?
"
he
asked
.
Charles
was
gravely
,
Michael
boisterously
,
diverted
by
the
young
man
s
obvious
embarrassment
.
Julia
,
though
she
seemed
to
share
their
amusement
,
was
alert
and
watchful
.

"
Well
,
it
appears
that
the
young
rip
has
been
taking
Julia
to
night
clubs
when
she
ought
to
have
been
in
bed
and
asleep
.
"
Julia
crowed
with
delight
.
"
Shall
we
deny
it
,
Tom
,
or
shall
we
brazen
it
out
?
"
"
Well
,
I
ll
tell
you
what
I
said
to
the
little
bird
,
"
Michael
broke
in
.
"
I
said
to
her
,
as
long
as
Julia
doesn
t
want
me
to
go
to
night
clubs
with
her
.
.

Julia
ceased
to
listen
to
what
he
said
.
Dolly
,
she
thought
,
and
oddly
enough
she
described
her
to
herself
in
exactly
the
words
Michael
had
used
a
couple
of
days
before
.
Dinner
was
announced
and
their
bright
talk
turned
to
other
things
.
But
though
Julia
took
part
in
it
with
gaiety
,
though
she
appeared
to
be
giving
her
guests
all
her
attention
and
even
listened
with
a
show
of
appreciation
to
one
of
Michael
s
theatrical
stories
that
she
had
heard
twenty
times
before
,
she
was
privately
holding
an
animated
conversation
with
Dolly
.
Dolly
cowered
before
her
while
she
told
her
exactly
what
she
thought
of
her
.
"
You
old
cow
,
"
she
said
to
her
.
"
How
dare
you
interfere
with
my
private
concerns
?
No
,
don
t
speak
.
Don
t
try
to
excuse
yourself
.
I
know
exactly
what
you
said
to
Michael
.
It
was
unpardonable
.
I
thought
you
were
a
friend
of
mine
.
I
thought
I
could
rely
on
you
.
Well
,
that
finishes
it
.
I
ll
never
speak
to
you
again
.
Never
.
Never
.
D
you
think
I
m
impressed
by
your
rotten
old
money
?
Oh
,
it
s
no
good
saying
you
didn
t
mean
it
.
Where
would
you
be
except
for
me
,
I
should
like
to
know
.
Any
distinction
you
ve
got
,
the
only
importance
you
have
in
the
world
,
is
that
you
happen
to
know
me
.
Who
s
made
your
parties
go
all
these
years
?
D
you
think
that
people
came
to
them
to
see
you
?
They
came
to
see
me
.
Never
again
.
Never
.
"
It
was
in
point
of
fact
a
monologue
rather
than
a
conversation
.
