"You're a good woman, and I'm a mere mortal man. She's found that out already, and she doesn't like it."
"Wallie, dear, what do you mean?"
"I mean exactly what I say. She's found it out. She's found me out. She's found everything out."
"Found out? But how?"
"It doesn't matter how. Edie, why didn't you tell her? You said you would."
"Yes—I said I would."
"And you told me you had."
"No. I didn't tell you I had."
"What did you tell me, then?"
"I told you there was nothing to be afraid of, that it was all right."
