"It would seem that you suspect Dido or my mother of having something to do with the matter," she remarked coldly. Here Maurice set down his cup with a crash, and strode across the room, where he faced Etwald in no very pleasant frame of mind. "What has that to do with your meek and lowly gratitude?" he asked with the trace of a smile..
