“No. I shall go to bed early.”
“I’ll stay till then.”
“You know you can’t stay very late here.”
She heard him laugh.
“When you’ve just said you are going to bed early!”
She said nothing more till they reached the flat. He followed her in and put his hat down.
“Will you have tea?”
“No, thanks; nothing.”
“Go into the drawing-room. I’ll come in a moment.”
She left him and went into her bedroom.
