bject was a serious — almost a dangerous — one; and I had no positive evidence to bring forward in proof of my fancy. It was a question of looks and words that had been full of significance to me, but which might seem to Milly to mean Maillot Bayern Munich very little.
‘We cannot help our instinctive doubts, dear. But if you can trust Mr. Egerton, and if your father can trust him, my fancies can matter very little. I cannot stand between you and your love, dear — I Longchamp Plecak know that.’
‘But you can make me very unhappy by your doubts, Mary,’ she answered.
I kissed her, and Gareth Bale Fotbalové Dres did my best to console her; but she was not easily to be comforted, and left me in a half-sorrowful, half-angry mood. I had disappointed her, she told me — she had felt so sure of my sympathy; and instead of sharing her happiness, I had made her miserable by my fanciful doubts and gloomy forebodings. After she had gone, I sat by the window for a long time, thinking of her disconsolately, and feeling myself very guilty. But I had a fixed conviction that Mr. Darrell would refuse to receive Angus Egerton as his daughter’s suitor, and that the course of this love-affair was not destined to be a smooth one.
The result proved that I had been right. Mr. Egerton had a long interview with Mr. Darrell in the library next morning, during which his proposal was most firmly rejected.

‘Sit down, Miss Crofton,’ Mr. Darrell said very coldly; Belstaff Thruxton Blouson Kurtki ‘and you, Milly, come here.’
She went towards him with a slow faltering step, and sank down into the chair to which he pointed, looking at him all the time in an eager beseeching way that I think must Jordin Tootoo Tröjor have gone to his heart. He was standing with his back to the empty fireplace, and remained standing throughout the interview.
‘I think you know that I San Jose Sharks Hoodie love you, Milly,’ he began, ‘and that your happiness is the chief desire of my mind.’
‘I’m sure of that, papa.’
‘And yet you have deceived me.’
‘Deceived you? O papa, in what way?’
‘By encouraging the hopes Sanfrecce Hiroshima Dresy of a man Maillot Paris Saint-Germain whom you must have known I would never receive as your husband; by suffering your feelings to become engaged, without one word of warning to me, and in a manner that you must have known could not fail to be most obnoxious to me.’
