Is this Mrs. Godfrey Ledstone's? she began. Then, with a touch of surprise, she broke off, exclaiming,
gpt
Oh, you, Mr. Purnett!
human
Yes, er--how are you? said Bob.
gpt
I--I'm just going.
human
If you know this lady, you can introduce me, Winnie suggested, smiling.
gpt
Though I'm afraid I'm receiving you rather informally, she added to the visitor.
human
I'm Mrs. Ledstone.
gpt
Yes, said the visitor. She turned quickly on Bob.
human
Mr. Purnett, please say nothing about this to--to Godfrey.
gpt
It's his sister.
human
They don't know I've come, you see.
gpt
Oh, that's all right, Miss Ledstone. Of course, I'm safe. He looked desperately at Winnie.
human
I--I'd better be off.
gpt
Yes, I think so. Good-bye. Do come in, Miss Ledstone. She laughed gently.
human
You've surprised us both, but I'm very glad to see you, even though they don't know you've come. Good-bye again, Mr. Purnett.
