But his gallantry and common sense made him think that justice was on Phillipa's side. They had made their bargain in marriage without love in the first place. What right had he to insist now that it should be weighed in?

Natalie was growing as desperate under it as was Phillipa over Alan's refusal to quit his home again. She began, after her initial feeling of relief at having him with her in time of trouble was over, to ask her- self tormenting questions.
