"For my part," she observed, as if continuing a discussion, "I think Louis charming in a tete a tete,  when he feels inclined to be interesting he generally succeeds. Did he tell you anything worth repeating? It is a dull afternoon, and you might entertain me a little." FOR MY PART SHE OBSERVED AS IF CONTINUING A DISCUSSION I THINK LOUIS CHARMING IN A TETE A TAGE WHEN HE FEELS INCLINED TO BE INTERESTING HE GENERALLY SUCCEEDS DID HE TELL YOU ANYTHING WORTH REPEATING IT IS A DULL AFTERNOON AND YOU MIGHT ENTERTAIN ME A LITTLE
Ruth raised her heavy eyes. “I? Oh, I feel perfectly well. Why do you ask? Do I look ill?” “Yes, you do; your face is pale, and your eyes look tired. Did you sit up late last night?” This was a leading move, but Ruth evaded the deeper meaning that was so evident to her now. “No,” she replied; “I believe it could not have been nine when I went upstairs.” “Why? Were you too fatigued to sit up, or was Louis’s company unpleasant?” “Oh, no,” was the abrupt response, and her eyes fell on the open page again. Mrs. Levice, once started on the trail, was not to be baffled by such tactics. Since Ruth was not ill, she had had some mental disturbance of which her weary appearance was the consequence. She felt almost positive that Louis had made some advances last night, from the flash of intelligence with which he had met her telegraphic expression. It was natural for her to be curious; it was unnatural for Ruth to be so reserved. With feelings not a little hurt she decided to know something more.
