I asked Aunt Alice to beg you to come here. I was afraid you wouldn't if I asked you.
Lucy.
[Lightly.] What nonsense! I'm always delighted to see you.
Boulger.
I wanted to speak to you about something, and I thought Aunt Alice should be present.
Lucy.
Is it so important that it can't wait till to-morrow?
Boulger.
I venture to think it's very important.
Lucy.
