Mary Balogh Quote
If I had smiled and fawned over you at Lady Mannering’s ball, she said, and if I had simpered and giggled during the drive in Hyde Park, you would have lost interest in me in a moment, Lord Ravensberg. Good Lord, yes, he agreed. Perceptive of her. I would thank you not to take the Lord’s name in vain, she said so primly that he was momentarily enchanted. I see that I have behaved in quite the wrong manner with you. I should have encouraged you. There is always time, he suggested, moving his chair half an inch closer to hers, to mend your ways, Miss Edgeworth.
