Strangely enough, she didn't begin screaming, just looked at him as she briskly wound her hair back up into a chignon that hid all that glowing color as if it didn't exist. "Well, I suppose I should thank you," she said briskly.
She really was one of the oddest women he'd ever met. In fact, he couldn't even think of a repost to that.
"This has taught me sympathy for the women of the play. I previously thought Mrs. Loveit and Belinda were rather foolish women, negligible in intelligence and prey to their passions."
Gabe felt queerly distant, as ü he were watching the scene from another room, or even from the audience of a theater.
"She's your mistress, isn't she?" Gillian asked.
"Who?" he asked. "I don't think Medley has a mistress. "
"This Loretta. Miss Hawes."
"No!" But she read his eyes; she knew it, and he saw it, and she didn't bother to acknowledge his protest. "As the manager of this production, I should perhaps insist that you play Dorimant. As far as I know, the Duke of Holbrook is as pure as the driven snow. And yet youâ¦"

"She says that if he does but speak to a woman she's undone. I never credited the line before."

"You would go a long way to changing my mind about rakes, Mr. Spenser, I assure you."
"You make me feel like an animal on exhibit," he said.
She ignored him. "Merely a little conversation and a few minutes copying out parts, and you quite diverted my attention. It was a masterful performance." She gathered up her scrolls. "Good afternoon, sir."
And without further ado, she tucked herself through the door.
