<p>“She wanted then to force me to⁠—to⁠—to⁠—. Oh, Hetta, it is so hard to explain, but I am sure that you understand. I do know that you do not, cannot think that I have, even for one moment, been false to you.”</p>
<p>“But why should you be false to her? Why should I step in and crush all her hopes? I can understand that Roger should think badly of her because she was⁠—divorced. Of course he would. But an engagement is an engagement. You had better go back to <abbr>Mrs.</abbr> Hurtle and tell her that you are quite ready to keep your promise.”</p>
<p>“She knows now that it is all over.”</p>
<p>“I dare say you will be able to persuade her to reconsider it. When she came all the way here from San Francisco after you, and when she asked you to take her to the theatre, and to Lowestoft⁠—because of her health, she must be very much attached to you. And she is waiting here⁠—no doubt on purpose for you. She is a very old friend⁠—very old⁠—and you ought not to treat her unkindly. Good bye, <abbr>Mr.</abbr> Montague. I think you had better lose no time in going⁠—back to <abbr>Mrs.</abbr> Hurtle.” All this she said with sundry little impedimentary gurgles in her throat, but without a tear and without any sign of tenderness.</p>

<p>“You don’t mean to tell me, Hetta, that you are going to quarrel with me!”</p>
<p>“I don’t know about quarrelling. I don’t wish to quarrel with anyone. But of course we can’t be friends when you have married⁠—<abbr>Mrs.</abbr> Hurtle.”</p>
<p>“Nothing on earth would induce me to marry her.”</p>
