It
was
still
their
habit
to
spend
the
evening
together
,
till
ten
o
’
clock
.
Then
they
would
talk
,
or
read
together
,
or
go
over
his
manuscript
.
But
the
thrill
had
gone
out
of
it
.
She
was
bored
by
his
manuscripts
.
But
she
still
dutifully
typed
them
out
for
him
.
But
in
time
Mrs
Bolton
would
do
even
that
.
For
Connie
had
suggested
to
Mrs
Bolton
that
she
should
learn
to
use
a
typewriter
.
And
Mrs
Bolton
,
always
ready
,
had
begun
at
once
,
and
practised
assiduously
.
So
now
Clifford
would
sometimes
dictate
a
letter
to
her
,
and
she
would
take
it
down
rather
slowly
,
but
correctly
.
And
he
was
very
patient
,
spelling
for
her
the
difficult
words
,
or
the
occasional
phrases
in
French
.
She
was
so
thrilled
,
it
was
almost
a
pleasure
to
instruct
her
.
Now
Connie
would
sometimes
plead
a
headache
as
an
excuse
for
going
up
to
her
room
after
dinner
.

’
Perhaps
Mrs
Bolton
will
play
piquet
with
you
,
’
she
said
to
Clifford
.
’
Oh
,
I
shall
be
perfectly
all
right
.
You
go
to
your
own
room
and
rest
,
darling
.
’
But
no
sooner
had
she
gone
,
than
he
rang
for
Mrs
Bolton
,
and
asked
her
to
take
a
hand
at
piquet
or
bezique
,
or
even
chess
.
He
had
taught
her
all
these
games
.
And
Connie
found
it
curiously
objectionable
to
see
Mrs
Bolton
,
flushed
and
tremulous
like
a
little
girl
,
touching
her
queen
or
her
knight
with
uncertain
fingers
,
then
drawing
away
again
.
And
Clifford
,
faintly
smiling
with
a
half
-
teasing
superiority
,
saying
to
her
:

’
You
must
say
j
’
adoube
!
’
She
looked
up
at
him
with
bright
,
startled
eyes
,
then
murmured
shyly
,
obediently
:
’
J
’
adoube
!
’
