CHAPTER TWENTY-FIVE


RESTWICK CARNES could not
help seeing the signature as he
handed Eugenia's belongings to
her. His generous mouth frightened
and his square chin became more
stubborn than ever.
"Eugenia, what are you doing
with $4,000 check from my
wife ?"
Your wife, Mr.. earnest" stam-
mered the bank clerk. I'm so sor-
ry, Mr.. Carnes-oh, Mr.. Carnes, I
didn't know" His spluttering apol-
ogies came to an unhappy end as
he watched Rcstwick Carnes III
walk away without even bothering
to answer. He was leading the blond
girl with clamped pressure on her
elbow.
"Eugenia," he said again, "tell
me about the check" His voice was
soft, but somehow Eugenia felt as
II she were walking through an icy
refrigerator car.
She bit cruelty at the inside Of
her lower lip and felt the blood
seep through. 1t brought the de-
sired effect. Tears filled her eyes
She looked at Rusty then, the gor-
geous brown eyes swimmingly
damp, her coral lips quivering.
"Oh, Rusty, please don't ask me
why. 1t will only make trouble"
She bowed her head so deeply that
the silvery gold hair fell forward
on the collar Of her white coat,
making her seem younger and more
appealing than ever.
The man led her up the street
and pushed her into taxi. Drive
anywhere" he directed. To Eu-
genia, he said, Il must have an ex-
PLANTATION"
The girls head was still bowed,
the blond hair still an appealing
and effectual guard. From behind it
she was stealing a troubled side
wise glance at his set features. The
blue stoniness Of his eyes was
frightening her. Never had she seen
Rusty quite so angry Never, even
in the midst Of their worst argu-
ments.
without raising her head she
touched his coat sleeve. Take me
to my hotel, Rusty"
He looked at her for a moment
then. What hotel? Choppo said he
saw you moving this morning.
Where did you move tor" Again
those cold blue eyes turned away
from her and she felt lost.
She did not know which was
worse, having him so hard and de-
termined not to look at her, or to
bear the strange questioning when
he did look at her. She did know,
however, that she hated nosey little
red-haired Choppo.
I'm at the Young now, Rusty"
why did you mover"
ITO save money"
you know your bill would have
been paid.
1T wasn't right, Rusty. And I
couldn't stand it any longer Be-
cause her heart was beating so
shudderingly with fear she slung
herself about so that her chest was
hidden against the back Of the seat.
She did not want the stubborn
cninned, handsome young man be-
side her TO know how totally upset
she was. She further hid her trepi-
dalton by burying her face in
crossed arms. Rusty kept an un-
friendly silence. Hes like
stranger" Eugenia thought. with
an icicle closing about her heart.

Promptly she burst into weeping.
"Oh, it had been horrible watch
ing you two, Rusty. 1 know how
wicked / was, how unreasonable,
but don't deserve this. Oh, really,
l don't!" She drew jagged breath.
please believe I wouldn't have
asked for settlement, Rusty, If 1
hadn't been so CHASTITY poor. It's
humiliating to admit it. But was.
That's the only reason I ever asked
you for money-and that was main
ly for my uncle. So you and I could
have a fair chance at happiness,
Rusty"
Restwick Carnes' heart felt as II
it were melting right into Eu-
genias. Yet he forced himself to
make an Unconditional matter-of-
fact reply. You had no business
asking Paige for money"
She gasped. But, Rusty, didn't
ask her for It,"
Then why did she give 1t to
you?" he demanded sharply. They
had circled about and were now
pulling into the entrance Of the
Young hotel. stop smiling he
forced himself to say with cold i'm
patience.
Eugenia did not glimpse the
misery beneath the mans terse-
ness. She knew only that her tears
had been rebuked and that know
edge added fright to the fright she
already was sheltering.
"All right, Rusty, won't cry.
I won't" Before he could help her
she snapped open the door Of the
taxi, stepped to the sidewalk, and
acting upon planned procedure,
tainted.
Horror made Rusty feel as IL he
were suffocating. With all possible
speed he scooted across the seat
and was out OF the cab. The driver
was motionless. A couple Of pedes-
trians had stopped and were offer
ing sympathetic assistance. Rusty
brushed them aside and gathered
the white-faced, relaxed girl into
his arms. Tears came unbidden
from his eyes, now warm and alb
jectly ashamed, instead Of a glazed
blue.
Hurry" he directed the elevator
operator. please hurry. We must
get Miss North to her room"
Abby looked like a little puffed-
up rubber doll in her violent yell
low shorts and black and yellow
polka dot bolero. Her round cheeks
were pink with rouge; her mouth
was bright. Bent almost double in
chair on her own sunporch, she
was applying plum-red polish to
her toenals.
Darn It! I missed" She glanced
up at Paige and grinned.
The girl felt a responsive smile
fitting her mouth. She watched
Abby working feverishly with
cleansing tissue and suggested,
You'd have better luck II you'd
put down your cigaret and the pol
ish bottle while you work"
The smile felt good on her lips,
especially now that it was begin
ming to relax instead Of jerking as
IL she were posing for a photograph
beneath movie studio lights. She
was glad to be here with Abby. In
fact, she had raced back from
downtown and directly to that
woman's room, for the comfort Of
her joking cynicism and the en-
dearing brassiness Of her. voice.
A bomber zoomed low and Abby
missed another nail. Instead, plum
red polish landed on the flesh Of her
big toe. Abby closed the bottle and

Rusty is going to help me with

Yes, he is" the girl agreed
with such quick enthusiasm that
Abby's faded eyes frightened.
Then they bulged out. But while
she watched Paige, her face cloud
ed, for the next words were rather
painful. II just hope he isn't-I
must not say cowardly-I'll say I'M

Tears gushed again. "Oh, Rusty,

buried her blond head against his
chest, Poor. poor Rusty. Paige
