t he had nothing to be conceited about; who had been marked from childhood for a peculiar kind of suffering, and to whom you were the day-star of his life; who loved you,Bailey Button Metallic 5803, worshipped you, so entirely that he felt it happiness enough for him if you would let him see you at rare moments ——”
Philip paused with a pang of dread lest his confession should cut short this very happiness — a pang of the same dread that had kept his love mute through long months. A rush of self-consciousness told him that he was besotted to have said all this. Maggie’s manner this morning had been as unconstrained and indifferent as ever,UGG Classic Short Czyścibut 5825.
But she was not looking indifferent now. Struck with the unusual emotion in Philip’s tone, she had turned quickly to look at him; and as he went on speaking, a great change came over her face — a flush and slight spasm of the features,UGG Bailey Button Czyścibut 5809, such as we see in people who hear some news that will require them to readjust their conceptions of the past. She was quite silent, and walking on toward the trunk of a fallen tree,Luis Suarez Drakt, she sat down, as if she had no strength to spare for her muscles. She was trembling.
“Maggie,” said Philip, getting more and more alarmed in every fresh moment of silence, “I was a fool to say it; forget that I’ve said it. I shall be contented if things can be as they were.”
