Well? Has she told you anything wonderful?
gpt
Yes, she has, replied Constance.

She's simply _uncanny_! She could pick up a fortune in London in one season, if she were a professional. She has told me in what sort of place the heirlooms are now, but that we shall never see them again.

I feel quite weak in the knees, Constance whispered to Annesley.

Has she told you anything?

No, said the girl

I don't--want to know things.

The woman frightened me with what she _knew_. I mean, not about our robbery--that's a trifle--but about the past. That crystal of hers seems to be--a sort of _Town Topics_. But I must say she didn't foretell any horrors for the future--not for me personally. If she goes on as she's begun she can do what she likes with us all. Dear little Anne, you must ask her often to your house when you're 'finding your feet'--and I'm helping you--in London. I prophesy that she'll prove an attraction. Why, it would pay to have a room fitted up for her in purple and black, with relays of fresh lilies.
