She handed Milly a card.
‘Mr. Stormont!’ Crystal Palace Børn Fodboldtrøjer the girl exclaimed, with a disappointed air; ‘my cousin Julian. I am coming to him, of course, Sarah. But I wish you had given me the card at once.’
‘Won’t you go and do somethink to your hair, miss? most young ladies do.’
‘O yes, I know; there are girls who would stop to have their hair done in Grecian plaits, if the dearest friend they had in the world was waiting for them in the drawing-room. My hair will do well enough, Sarah. — Come, Mary, you’ll come to the house with me, won’t you?’
‘Lor’, miss, here comes the gentleman,’ said Sarah; and then decamped by an obscure side-path.
‘I had better leave you to see him alone, Milly,’ I said; but she told me imperatively to stay, and I stayed.
She went a little way to meet the gentleman, Lucas Digne Jersey who seemed pleased to see her, but whom she received rather coldly, as I thought. But I had not long to think about it, before she had brought him to the summer-house, and introduced him to me.

It was the face of a very clever man, I thought; but I was not so sure that it was the face of a man I Japan Fodboldtrøjer could like, or whom I should be inclined to trust.

His way of treating his cousin was half deferential, half playful; but once, when I looked up suddenly from my work, I seemed to catch a glimpse of a deeper meaning in the cold blue eyes — a look of singular intensity fixed on Milly’s bright face.
Whatever this look might mean, she was unconscious of it; she went on talking gaily of Thornleigh and her Thornleigh friends.
‘I do so want to come home, Julian,’ she Adidas D Rose 9 said. ‘Do you think there is any hope for me this midsummer?’
‘I think there is every hope. I think it is almost certain you will come home.’
‘O Julian, how glad I am!’
‘But suppose there should be a surprise for you when you come home, Milly — a change that you may not quite like, at first?’
‘What change?’
‘Has your father told you nothing?’
