"How could it be otherwise?"
"You want to cheat me out of the sum I was to receive for this service."
"How?"
"By pretending you can't get possession of the boy's property. Then you can plead inability, and keep it all yourself."
"On my honor, you do me injustice," said Craven, earnestly.
"Your honor!" sneered Sharpley. "The least said about that the better."
"Be it so; but you must see that my interests are identified with yours. I will prove to you that all I have said is true."
"How will you prove it?"
"By bringing you face to face with Mrs. Craven. By asking you to come home with me."
