It
was
a
little
gold
watch
that
could
not
have
cost
more
than
ten
pounds
,
but
it
amused
her
to
wear
it
now
and
then
.
It
was
not
till
after
that
night
when
they
had
first
supped
together
that
Julia
confessed
to
herself
that
she
had
fallen
in
love
with
Tom
.
It
came
to
her
as
a
shock
.
But
she
was
exhilarated
.
"
I
who
thought
I
could
never
be
in
love
again
.
Of
course
it
can
’
t
last
.
But
why
shouldn
’
t
I
get
what
fun
out
of
it
I
can
?
"
She
decided
that
he
must
come
again
to
Stanhope
Place
.
It
was
not
long
before
an
opportunity
presented
itself
.
"
You
know
that
young
accountant
of
yours
,
"
she
said
to
Michael
.
"
Tom
Fennell
’
s
his
name
.
I
met
him
out
at
supper
the
other
night
and
I
’
ve
asked
him
to
dinner
next
Sunday
.
We
want
an
extra
man
.
"
"
Oh
,
d
’
you
think
he
’
ll
fit
in
?
"
It
was
rather
a
grand
party
.
It
was
on
that
account
she
had
asked
him
.
She
thought
it
would
please
him
to
meet
some
of
the
people
he
had
known
only
from
their
pictures
.
She
had
realized
already
that
he
was
a
bit
of
a
snob
.
Well
,
that
was
all
to
the
good
;
she
could
give
him
all
the
smart
people
he
wanted
.
For
Julia
was
shrewd
,
and
she
knew
very
well
that
Tom
was
not
in
love
with
her
.
To
have
an
affair
with
her
flattered
his
vanity
.
He
was
a
highly
-
sexed
young
man
and
enjoyed
sexual
exercise
.
From
hints
,
from
stories
that
she
had
dragged
out
of
him
,
she
discovered
that
since
he
was
seventeen
he
had
had
a
great
many
women
.
He
loved
the
act
rather
than
the
person
.
He
looked
upon
it
as
the
greatest
lark
in
the
world
.
And
she
could
understand
why
he
had
so
much
success
.
There
was
something
appealing
in
his
slightness
,
his
body
was
just
skin
and
bone
,
that
was
why
his
clothes
sat
on
him
so
well
,
and
something
charming
in
his
clean
freshness
.
His
shyness
and
his
effrontery
combined
to
make
him
irresistible
.
It
was
strangely
flattering
for
a
woman
to
be
treated
as
a
little
bit
of
fluff
*
that
you
just
tumbled
on
to
a
bed
.
"
What
he
’
s
got
,
of
course
,
is
sex
appeal
.
"
She
knew
that
his
good
looks
were
due
to
his
youth
.
He
would
grow
wizened
as
he
grew
older
,
dried
up
and
haggard
;
that
charming
flush
on
his
cheeks
would
turn
into
a
purple
glow
and
his
delicate
skin
would
go
lined
and
sallow
;
but
the
feeling
that
what
she
loved
in
him
would
endure
so
short
a
time
increased
her
tenderness
.
She
felt
a
strange
compassion
for
him
.
He
had
the
high
spirits
of
youth
,
and
she
lapped
them
up
as
a
kitten
laps
up
milk
.
But
he
was
not
amusing
.
Though
he
laughed
when
Julia
said
a
funny
thing
he
never
said
one
himself
.
She
did
not
mind
.
