I Eva hesitated. 1t might be a
business conference, she thought.
Tell Miss Nellin I am here, Ashe,"
she said and turned away to wait.
Helen sent for her at once. why
SO formal?" she smiled when Eva
entered the great high-ceilinged
room in which there was a fire burn
ing to take off the chill of the late
summer night.
Eva Glanced at Brent. IT thought
you might be talking over something
privately" she said.
Brent nodded courteously, but
there was no welcome in his man
ner.
Eva went to sit beside Helen on
the great divan before the fire. In
her eyes there was faint mist of
tears.
1--WE were talking something over
Helen admitted, "but it isn't at all
private. Leno wants me to leave
Bramblewood and live in New York"
Fvas eyes sought Brent'S. He did
not look at her.
But somehow I've grown to love
this place." Helen went on. Il

always"
Brent impatiently crushed out the
cigaret he had been smoking. But
I've taken an apartment for you"
he exposutlated.
Helen smiled at him. seized sud-
denly with a desire to tease. But
you aren't my guardian any more,
Leno, dear" she said.
"You may bring the housekeeper, "
Brent suggested, taking her remark
seriously.
Helen laughed. you've changed
she said. "Once upon time you
would have scoffed at convention"
Again Brent avoided meeting Eva's
gaze. He wondered if she would
guess that one reason he wanted
Helen away from Bramblewood was
to put an end to their friendship. if
it we're possible, and avoid these
chance meetings.
Further discussion of the matter
was unwise, he told himself. In a
short while he took his departure.
Helen went to the door with him
and let him kiss her good night.
There was no thrill in it. Helen
supposed it was because she was
so unhappy over her grandf" theirs
death. She missed him greatly. She
had not known before his passing
to what extent he had supplanted
Brent as the only person in the
world to whom she felt related.
But then, of course, she had
tried to tell herself, she wasn't
thinking of Leno as a guardian or
relative any more. He was to be
her husband.
