What does he want?
gpt
He wants me to help him to go to America.
human
He says he hasn’t a friend.
gpt
But what about his wife?
human
That’s just what I said.... He’s left her. Says he can’t live with her.
gpt
Can’t live with her! Well, I’m not surprised. But I do think it’s strange, him coming to you.
human
So do I, said Edwin drily, taking the upper hand; for the change in Hilda’s tone--her almost childlike satisfaction in the news that Cannon would not live with his wife--seemed to endow him with superiority.
gpt
But there’s a lot of strange things in this world. Now listen here. I’m not going to keep him waiting; I can’t.
human
Find George and take him home at once.
gpt
I think it’s very wrong that you should be asked to help him. Her voice shook and nearly broke.
human
Shall you help him, Edwin?
gpt
I shall get him out of this town at once, and out of the country. Do as I say. As things are he doesn’t know there is any George, and it’s just as well he shouldn’t. But if he stays anywhere about, he’s bound to know.
