Hilda Blanchard leaned nerOBA the table, saying something rapid and fevorlah about meeting Bobby in Cannes two weeks hence.

"Darling, I can't," said the young man called Bobby. "I've got to be in Rome for Christmas." He was, it scomed, some sort of secretary in a legation. You could just imagine him, bowing low to a princess and saying "Yes, your highness" in the approved fashion.
