"You are not going without breakfast? Those lazy creatures must have it ready to time for once."
She rang the bell sharply, and a maid came.
"Breakfast immediately for Miss Graydon," she said. "We shall be in the dining-room in three minutes. Tell Dibber it must be on the table."
And it was. Pamela ate a few mouthfuls and swallowed a cup of tea. Then the cab was at the door, and her miserable eyes were looking out on the sunshiny street.
"Good-bye, good-bye," she said.
"When you can, send me a word to say how he is," said Lady Kitty.
Pamela stepped back into the dining-room, and put her arms round Lady Kitty's neck.
"No matter, no matter!" she cried. "I love you. You've been human to me in this house, and I love you."
And then Pamela was gone.
