"My God!" she cried. "How did you learn this? Who are you?"
Not heeding her question, Nick continued:
"I have learned much more, madame, that you will be even less pleased to listen to."[Pg 59]
"Is this true?" asked Rogers, in a whirl of delighted amazement.
"Yes, Mr. Rogers. You may set your mind at rest on that point."
Just then the door opened, and Chick announced:
"Dr. Lord!"
The woman trembled from head to feet when she saw the doctor.
Rogers also felt very uncomfortable.
