CHAPTER rWFNrY-sIx

When she'd come 10 Washington,
Daphne made il clear that she came
only for professional reasons, that
seeing Alan was a pleasure, but
that her feelings hadn't changed
This, Alan had met with his usual
aplomb, assuring her that he was
satisfied, and had proceeded TO in
troduce her TO his many friends.
And to laugh delightedly when she
asked him casually about the con-
gressman's daughter, telling her it
was a healthy sign that she was
jeRlousl
Daphne gave up then. II Alan
was content 10 escort her about, and
shower his attentions on her, there
was no objection. She needed Alan.
He was necessary to her new way
of living. She went TO theatres, re-
ceptions and cocktail parties and
teas, to dinner parties and state af-
fairs. She was popular and her in
Vitations were many. She dressed
smArtly. played sound bridge,
danced willingly with elderly gen
tlemen, and gave an occasional
small luncheon.
Corinne had arranged to send her
five hundred IA month, and told her
that she wos piling up profits in
yet unpaid commissions.
She was doing extremely well for
girl who was working FOL. no other
reason than to forget a man who
didn't want her. She was doing
rather well, too, at forgetting him,
Daphne thought. 1t was only occa-
sionally that her heart leaped into
her mouth when she saw a dark
head above the Medical Corps in
sigma. She was little proud that
now, less than three months since
she'd written her farewell note to
Steve, she wasn't even looking for
an answer.
Daphne got dressed finally, that
Friday afternoon IN one of her
sheer black dresses and a cartwheel
hat, made her telephone calls, in
spected the paint job, drank tea
with the attaches mother. had u
glass of sherry ut the congress
mans house, ran into a cocktail
party at the senator's, and got home
so late, and so tired, that she fell
asleep while trying to answer a
long-overdue letter to Buff, her
most faithful correspondent.
Saturday morning Daphne woke
though still tired, and was all
packed - her things and Juan's
little clothes - when Alan arrived.
