H: (anxiously) Vivienne, you didn't answer my last letter. It took me a week to find your new address! Why didn't you answer me? You knew I was waiting to see you and hear from you.
.
V: (slowly) Mr. Hartley, I don't know what to say to you. I understand all the advantages of your offer
.
V: (seriously) I trust you completely. I know you are the kindest of men, and that the girl who you get will be very lucky. I heard all about you when I was at the Montgomerys'.
.
H: (suspiciously) Tell me, Vivienne, is there - is there someone else?
.
V: (defensively) You shouldn't ask that, Mr. Hartley. But I will tell you. There is one other person - but I haven't promised him anything.
.
H: (masterfully) Vivienne, you must be mine.
.
V: (calmly) Do you think for one moment that I could come to your home while Héloise is there?
