"No. It's simpler than that. I don't care for you, George, not—not as you want me to."
He smiled. "How do you think I want you to?"
"Well—you know."
"I know that I care so much that it doesn't matter how you care, or whether you care or not, so long as I can put a stop to that brutality."
"There isn't any brutality. I've got everything a woman can want."
"You've got everything any other woman can want."
She closed her eyes. "I'm quite happy."
