〃She's bound to have something;〃 remarked her mother; almost proudly。
Mr。 Ruck was still vaguely inspecting the shop; he was still
whistling a little。 〃I am afraid he is not at all well;〃 I said;
softly; to his wife。
She twisted her head a little; and glanced at him。
〃Well; I wish he'd improve!〃 she exclaimed。
〃A satin case; and a nice one!〃 said Miss Ruck to the shopman。
I bade Mr。 Ruck good…bye。 〃Don't wait for me;〃 he said; sitting
there on his stool; and not meeting my eye。 〃I've got to see this
thing through。〃
I went back to the Pension Beaurepas; and when; an hour later; I left
it with my luggage; the family had not returned。
