that is Angus Egerton,’ he said, when our visitor had left us.
‘Yes, Julian. O, by the bye, I forgot to introduce you; you came in so quietly,’ answered Mr. Darrell.
‘I can’t say I particularly care about the honour of knowing that gentleman,’ said Converse Winter All Star Mr. Stormont in a half-contemptuous tone.
‘Why not?’ Milly asked quickly.
‘Because I never heard any goof of him.’
‘But he has reformed, it seems,’ said Mr. Darrell, ‘and is leading quite a steady life at Cumber, the Collingwoods tell me. Augusta and I called at the Rectory this morning, and the Rector and his wife talked a good deal of him. I was rather pleased with him, I confess, just now.’
Milly looked up at her father gratefully. Poor child! how innocently and unconsciously she betrayed her secret! and how little she thought of the jealous eyes that were watching her! I saw Julian Stormont’s face darken with an angry look, and I knew that he had already discovered the state of Milly’s feelings Adidas Klær in relation to Angus Egerton.
He was still with Men Parka & Duffle Coats us when Mr. Egerton came to dinner two days later. I shall never forget that evening. The day was oppressively warm, with that dry sultry heat of which there had been so much during the latter part of the summer; and as the afternoon Converse All Star advanced, the air grew still, that palpable stillness which so often comes before a thunder-storm. Milly had been full of life and vivacity all Women Backpacks day, flitting from room to room with a kind of joyous restlessness. She took unusual pains with her toilette for so simple a party, and came into my room looking like Titania in her Men Denim Jackets gauzy white dress, with half-blown blush-roses in her hair, and more roses in a bouquet Damskie Vans X Hello Kitty at her waist.
Mr. Egerton came in a little later than the party from the Rectory, and after shaking hands with Mr. Darrell, made his way at once to the place where Milly and I were sitting.
‘Any more sketching since I was here last, Miss Darrell?’ he asked.
‘No. I have been doing nothing for the last day or two.’
‘Do you know I have been thinking of your work in that way a good deal since I called here. I am stronger in criticism than in execution, you know. I think I was giving you a little lecture on your shortcomings, wasn’t I?’
‘Yes; but you left Women Short Shorts off so abruptly in the middle of it, that I don’t fancy it Męskie Vans Suede Chukka Boots was very profitable to me,’ Milly answered in rather a piqued tone.
‘Did I really? O yes, I remember. I was quite startled by Mrs. Darrell’s appearance. She is so surprisingly like a lady I knew a long time Dame Adidas Pants&Tights ago.’
‘That is rather a curious coincidence,’ I said.
‘How a coincidence?’ asked Mr. Egerton.
‘Mrs. Darrell said almost the same thing about your portrait when we were at Cumber one day. It reminded her of some one she had known long ago.’
‘What an excellent memory you have for small events, Miss Crofton!’ said a voice close behind me.
It was Mrs. Darrell’s. She had come across Unisex the room towards us, unobserved by me, at Unisex any rate. Whether Angus Egerton had seen hlinks:
