CHAPTER IX
That evening Dion told Rosamund what Mrs. Clarke had said when he parted from her at Claridge’s.
“I promised her I’d find out which it was,” he added. “Do you remember what was said?”
After a minute of silence, during which Rosamund seemed to be considering something, she answered:
“Yes, I do.”
“Which was it?”
“Neither, Dion. Mrs. Clarke has made a mistake. She certainly spoke of some Turkish songs for me, but there was never any question of fixing a day for us to try them over together.”
“She thinks there was.”
“It’s difficult to remember exactly what is said, or not said, in the midst of a crowd.”
