Georgette Heyer Quote
She stretched out her hand, saying, Vernon! My dear, what a delightful surprise!What’s surprising about it? he enquired, lifting his black brows. Didn’t you ask me to come?The smile remained pinned to Lady Buxted’s lips, but she replied with more than a touch of acidity: To be sure I did, but so many days ago that I supposed you had gone out of town!Oh, no! he said, returning her smile with one of great sweetness.
