one woman. I can’t transfer my affection,Maillot Kansas Jayhawks, as a man transfers his capital from one form of investment to another.”
‘We walked on for some time in silence. I was determined not to be angry with him, however ungraciously he might speak to me; and when we were drawing near home, I begged that we might remain friends still, and that this unfortunate conversation might make no difference between us. I told him I knew how much my father valued him,Maillot NC State Wolfpack, and that it would distress me deeply if he deserted Thornleigh on my account.
“Friends!” he replied, in an absent tone; “yes, we are still friends of course,Maillot Beckerman, and I shall not desert Thornleigh.”
‘He seemed gayer than usual that evening after dinner. Whether the gaiety was assumed in order to hide his depression,Moncler Femme Pas Cher, or whether he was really able to take the matter lightly, I cannot tell. Of course I cannot shut out of my mind the consideration that a marriage with me would be a matter of great worldly advantage to Julian, who has nothing but the salary he receives from my father, and who by such a marriage would most likely secure immediate possession of the business, in which he is already a kind of deputy principal.
‘I noticed that my stepmother was especially kind to Julian this evening, and that she and he sat apart in one of the windows for some time talking to each other in a low confidential tone, while my father took his after-dinner nap. I wonder whether he told her of our interview that afternoon?
‘He went back to Shields early next morning, and bade me good-bye quite in his usual manner; so I hoped he had forgiven me; but the affair has left an unpleasant feeling in my mind, a sort of vague dread of some trouble to arise out of it in the future. I cannot forget that hard cruel look in my cousin’s face.
‘When he was gone, Mrs. Darrell began to praise him very warmly,Maillot Golden State Warriors, and my father spoke of him in the same tone. They talked of him a good deal as we lingered over our breakfast,Maillot Bale, and I fancied there was some intention with regard to me in the minds of both — they seem indeed to think alike upon every subject. Dearly as I love my father, this is a point upon which even his influence could not affect me. I might be weak and yielding upon every other question, never upon this.
‘And now let me tell you about my friend Peter, Rebecca Thatcher’s half-witted grandson. You know how painfully we were both struck by the poor fellow’s listless hopeless manner when we were at the cottage on the moor. I thought of it a great deal afterwards,Moncler Homme Pas Cher, and it occurred to me that our head-gardener might find work for him in the way of weeding,Billiga Mesh Polo, and rolling the gravel paths,Maillot Sampdoria Pas Cher, and such humble matters. Brook is a good kind old man, and always ready to do anything to please me; so I asked him the question one day in August, and he promised that when he next wanted extra hands Peter Thatcher should be employed, “Though I don’t suppose I shall ever make much of him, miss,” he said; “but there’s naught I wouldn’t do to please you.”
