Knox. He's going to Hankow to-night and he says he must see you before he goes. He's got some big order to give.
Harry. Oh, curse him. I know what he is. He'll keep me talking for half an hour. D'you mind if I leave you?
Daisy. Of course not. It'll give me a chance of making Mr. Conway's acquaintance.
Harry. I'll get rid of him as quickly as I can.
[He goes out accompanied by Knox.
Knox. [As he goes.] Good-bye.
[George looks at Daisy for a moment. She smiles at him. There is a silence.
George. Why didn't you warn me that it was you I was going to meet?
Daisy. I didn't know what you'd say about me to Harry if you knew.
George. It was rather a risk, wasn't it? Supposing I'd blurted out the truth.
