Title: Wide and Dark
Description: Could they really preserve the public facade of a perfect marriage any longer?

Theirs was a perfect marriage; the public agreed on it. Of course it was a pretence but an actress more than most people should know how to deal in illusion, and it was an illusion with a point. Her daughter's fiance came from a family that would never tolerate any breath of scandal. Then it was such a convenient screen for her private infidelities as well. Her husband, it not happy, was sufficiently indifferent to play his part.
