arrive the seeds of a charming romance?" "Don't talk such nonsense!"
O'Hara retaliated, laughing, though 811ml)’. "I had all the romance knocked out of me donkey's years ago. Badlnot."
He went off upstairs to pack. He wasn't thinking at all of Caryl Payne now. He had suddenly and unaceountably remembered why so much familiarity had attached to that other girl, the one with dusky hair and sable-black eyes, who be- longed to the film-company slay- ing at the inn.
CHAPTER IV
UNROMANTIC MEMORY
Not that the recollection had anything to do with his antipathy towards Romance. As he groped
back into the past while ram- ming personal belonglngs into his cases, the only thing clear about the girl was that their contact had been one entirely without ro- mance.
It was something connected with a rather hectic road-house Just outside London. There had been a police-raid. The girl had been there, and in the company of a most objectionable, considerably intoxicated young man. O'Hara us- ing a shattering left-hook on the young man's jaw, had settled him. He had succeeded in getting both the girl and himself out of the pollce-serummage and back in his car to London.
There he had dumped her in the carly hours of morning outside some rather sordid-looking apart- ment-house Bayswater way, lectur- cd her on her doubtful choice in male acquaintances, and driven away with no more thought of her. He was quick to dismiss her from his mind now, content only that he had placed her.
And when, having packed, he came downstairs to settle his ac- count, lt was with no real in- terest that he saw her at the foot of the stairs in the small hall, quite obviously waiting for him.
“Don't we speak as we pass by, Mr. O'Hara or have you quite for- gotten me?" she asked in her slow, husky drawl.
"I've Just been tidying up my memory about you as a matter of fact." he admitted at once. "At first though I knew we must be ac- quainted somehow, I couldn't fix it"
“But you've remembered? I'm glad. I've often wondered if I'd ever run across you again. I - I wanted you to know that I'd pro- fited‘ from your harangue, when you left me outside my digs with the morning milk."
(,1 hope I wasn't too rude in what I said." suggested O'Hara uncomfortably. "I’ve an impres- sion I wasn't on my best be- haviour—"
"You were the perfect Sir Gal- ahad." ahe laughed. “lf you did rather read the riot-act. it did me a power of good. Road-houses and drunken young men have known me no more from that dny till noun"
.“And now you're in films? A star
I hope?" "All beautifully Hollywood- groomed, and ready for sacrifice
on any celluloid altar. Haven't you seen any of my pictures? My name is Virginia West. you know." "Really?" O1-Iara was not per- haps as impressed as she would have liked him to be. He had of course heard the name for it was well-knewn and much in ihr film-news. But that had no inter- est for his as a rule. It hadn't much at this moment though polite. nee, demanded that he should at least stimulate some.
"You have definitely come to the top of the tree, haven't you he suggested realising actually that, if her acting was on a par with her physical attractiveness she Q1‘- talnly had all the elements of a star.
"It can be e. bit awkward up there at times, you know" she laughed huskily. "One gets lonely and dizzy, and sometimes rIhO wind blows unpleasantly. The mp of the tree isn't always the safest spot." “And you. so Julius Rlttenbergs been telling us. used to be- long here, lived at that lovely old Chateau." she went on diverting the conversation from herself. and "minding O'Hara of the purpose which had brought these people here.
"I've just come from there." he told her. "I've been visiting the present owner. Incidentally, she mentioned to me that y0\11'—dll'- mum do you call him? — had asked her leave to use the Chat- eau as a background for the film you're making. I'm afraid he'll get no change out of her, by the way."
