A dead silence follows. Lady Rodney raises her head, scenting mischief in the air. "It is very hard on Nick," he says disconsolately. "Now I am quite, quite happy," says Mona, and, rising from her knees, she goes back again to Geoffrey, and stands beside him. "Tell them all about last night," she says, looking up at him, "and the secret cupboard.".
