Lord Port Scatho said:
"I shan't be stopping a minute. But really . . ." and he moved the letter, but not with so wide a gesture, towards Sylvia.
"I have no secrets from Mrs. Tietjens," Tietjens said.
"Absolutely none . . ."
ord Port Scatho said:
"No . . . No, of course not . . . But . . ."
Tietjens said:
"Similarly, Mrs. Tietjens has no secrets from me. Again absolutely none."
Sylvia said:
"I don't, of course, tell Tietjens about my maid's love affairs or what the fish costs every day."
