Georgette Heyer Quote
Mr Merriot cocked an eyebrow at Kate, and said: - Well, my dear, and did you kiss her good-night?Miss Merriot kicked off her shoes, and replied in kind. What, are you parted from the large gentleman already?Mr Merriot looked into the fire, and a slow smile came, and the suspicion of a blush.Lord, child! said Miss Merriot. Are you for the mammoth? It's a most respectable gentleman, my dear.Mr Merriot raised his eyes. I believe I would not choose to cross him, he remarked inconsequently. But I would trust him.Miss Merriot began to laugh. Be a man, my Peter, I implore you.Alack! sighed Mr Merriot, I feel all a woman.
