Allys turned half about-for two breaths at least she had a snobbish impulse to overlook Billy and hurry away. Billy was tall, with a face like a young Greek god-but how greet him there with the Hammond girl to see, in a checked suit, patently ready-made, with the noisiest of shirts, a flowing bright red tie, and a sunburned straw hat? If it were only Adair, she would not mind-Hilary was, she knew, very much more critical. She might have run away, but that she caught the Hammond girl's look-amusement and satisfaction struggled through it, although the young lady tried hard to mask them.
Allys turned wholly, holding out both hands, and saying: "Billy, by all that's delightful! I've just been telling these people about you. Come, show them I kept well within the truth."
Billy caught the outstretched hands, his heart so openly in his eyes Hilary wanted to strangle him on the spot.
