“What do you want?”
“Me?” Mason asked, surprised. “Why I don’t want anything.”
“What does Sabin want?”
“I don’t know,” Mason told him. “You’ll be getting in touch with Sabin when you present your bill. You can ask him then.”
“I’ll ask him nothing.”
“Okay by me,” Mason said. “Sabin thinks your charges are plain robbery. He says that whatever you did, you did for Mr. Sabin and not for the estate.”
“I am doing it for the estate.”
“I don’t see how,” Mason said.
“You’d have to understand what it was all about in order to see that,” Bolding said.
“Doubtless,” Mason admitted, “if I knew all the facts, I’d feel differently about it. Doubtless, if Sabin knew all the facts, he’d feel differently about it. You see, he doesn’t know all the facts, and there’s no likelihood he’ll learn them — in time to do the estate any good.”
