MICH. And then? (ANDREW does not reply.) You were surprised to find me coming back with Withycombe instead of staying till Saturday?
ANDR. No.
MICH. Withycombe’s message about the telegram a little disturbed me. (A little pause, watching ANDREW.) I thought perhaps Mrs. Lesden might have started to come to Saint Decuman’s (pause, still watching ANDREW), and been lost on the way.
ANDR. Did you?
MICH. She is such a strange, flighty creature, that I should scarcely be surprised at anything she took it into her head to do.
ANDR. (looking him full in the face). She went up to London, didn’t she?
MICH. (wincing a little). Yes.
ANDR. And came back through the night by the mail?
MICH. Yes. Why do you look at me like that?
ANDR. I beg your pardon. Is there any other question you’d like to ask me?
