Jeannie gave a little exclamation of impatience, and looked at her watch.
“Yes, I’ve just got time before I go back to the hospital,” she said. “Have you a carriage here?”
“Yes, it’s waiting,” said Mrs. Raymond.
“Very good; get in. I’ll follow you in a moment.”
She went quickly into the garden again.
“I must go,” she said to Jack. “I have to see a girl before I go back to the hospital.”
“And I am to go back to paint my silly little pictures?” he asked.
“Yes; you don’t paint badly, you know!”
“I will try and paint better. But I may come again?”
Jeannie shook hands with him.
