Julia
had
never
encouraged
Charles
to
entertain
any
of
the
actors
or
authors
he
sometimes
came
across
,
and
she
was
the
only
person
there
who
had
ever
had
to
earn
a
living
.
She
had
sat
between
an
old
,
fat
,
bald
and
loquacious
*
Cabinet
Minister
who
took
a
great
deal
of
trouble
to
entertain
her
,
and
a
young
Duke
of
Westreys
who
looked
like
a
stable
-
boy
and
who
flattered
himself
that
he
knew
French
slang
better
than
a
Frenchman
.
When
he
discovered
that
Julia
spoke
French
he
insisted
on
conversing
with
her
in
that
language
.
After
luncheon
she
was
persuaded
to
recite
a
tirade
from
Phedre
as
it
was
done
at
the
Comedie
Francaise
and
the
same
tirade
as
an
English
student
at
the
Royal
Academy
of
Dramatic
Art
would
deliver
it
.
She
made
the
company
laugh
very
much
and
came
away
from
the
party
flushed
with
success
.
It
was
a
fine
bright
day
and
she
made
up
her
mind
to
walk
from
Hill
Street
to
Stanhope
Place
.
A
good
many
people
recognized
her
as
she
threaded
her
way
through
the
crowd
in
Oxford
Street
,
and
though
she
looked
straight
ahead
of
her
she
was
conscious
of
their
glances
.
702
"
What
a
hell
of
a
nuisance
it
is
that
one
can
t
go
anywhere
without
people
staring
at
one
.
"
703
She
slackened
her
pace
a
little
.
It
certainly
was
a
beautiful
day
.

She
let
herself
into
her
house
with
a
latch
-
key
and
as
she
got
in
heard
the
telephone
ringing
.
Without
thinking
she
took
up
the
receiver
.
705
"
Yes
?
"
706
She
generally
disguised
her
voice
when
she
answered
,
but
for
once
forgot
to
.
707
"
Miss
Lambert
?

"
I
don
t
know
if
Miss
Lambert
s
in
.
Who
is
it
please
?
"
she
asked
,
assuming
quickly
a
cockney
accent
.
709
The
monosyllable
had
betrayed
her
.
A
chuckle
travelled
over
the
wire
.
710
"
I
only
wanted
to
thank
you
for
writing
to
me
.
You
know
you
needn
t
have
troubled
.
It
was
so
nice
of
you
to
ask
me
to
lunch
,
I
thought
I
d
like
to
send
you
a
few
flowers
.
