      “I thought perhaps we might have something more than friendship?” Jack said.

      “Yes, we might,” Lucy replied. “I think we may like each other very much, Harcourt—but we do not know each other well, do we?”

      “Ah…” Jack frowned, for her question was unexpected. “If I were to propose marriage today, Lucy, what would your answer be?”

      “I should ask you if I might have a little time to think,” Lucy said, giving him a shy glance. “If you were to discover that your true happiness lay elsewhere I should understand.”

      “Would you?” Jack’s eyes narrowed. He suddenly realized what all this was about. Someone had been telling Lucy tales, and the devil of it was that he could deny nothing.

      Lucy blushed and looked away. She had begun to regret her answer and the wasted chance. She might even now have been telling her sister that she was engaged to Lord Harcourt!
