You're quite mistaken" she re-
torted. II purposely made only one
public appearance with Theodore
Vincent in Miami Beach, and /
didn't meet you" She gave him a
cool, disconcerting smile. "In fact,
I've never met you anywhere"
Alone. in her tiny house, after
an interminable and uncomfortable
afternoon, Ylena realized, without
caring, that she had made a poor
impression on the Cromwells. Tate,
speeding back toward town, real
lied the same thing. But he did
care. He couldn't remember ever
having cared whether his parents
liked a girl. But he wanted his en-
tire family to like Ylena because

He found Percy leading q living

Mrs. Cromwell. In spite Of loving
gossip ardently. he was instantly
Infatuated when he learned they
were talking about Ylena.
Percy was saying. 1--WE suspect
ed 1t was this girl from when you
told me about her and the check.
She and Theodore Vincent had a
beach place right around the curve
from where / was living"
Cromwell, Jr., interrupted with a
sarcastic grunt- II notice she didn't
remember meeting you"
We've never met" O'Neil ad-
mitted frowningly. Il only pre-
tended so In the hope Of worming
some information out Of her. I've
met Vincent. though, at one Of the
gambling clubs"
Tate said pointedly. II thought
you went to Florida to sell dental
supplies. What were you doing in
a gambling club?"
"Oh. be quiet, Tate" The girl
turned again to her husband. And
she wasn't with him ?"
mo, he was with someone else.
He usually was" He paused to FISH
In a humidor for one Of the senior
Cromwell's choice cigars. "She
spent most Of her time at home
with the little girl" He gave young
Cromwell a sidewise glance.
That young man managed list
