Phillips Oppenheim BOOK 3 CHAPTER 9 A QUESTION AND AN ANSWER Brooks returned to London to find the annual exodus already commenced. Lady Caroom and Sybil had left for Homburg. Lord Arranmore was yachting in the Channel. Brooks settled down to work and found it a little wearisome. He saw nothing of Mary Scott whose duties now brought her seldom to the head office. He began to think that she was avoiding him and there came upon him about this time a sense of loneliness to which he was sometimes subject. He fought it with hard work--early and late till the colour left his cheeks and black lines bordered his eyes. They pressed him to take a holiday but he steadily declined.

He read that her beautiful daughter Lady Sybil was quite the belle of Homburg that the Duke of Atherstone was in constant attendance that an interesting announcement might at any moment be made. He threw aside the paper and looked thoughtfully out into the stuffy little street where even at night the air seemed stifling and unwholesome. After all was he making the best of his life He had started a great work. Hundreds and thousands of his fellow creatures would be the better for it. So far all was well enough. But personally--was this entire self-abnegation necessary --was he fulfilling his duty to himself was he not rather sacrificing his future to a prejudice--an idea In any case he knew that it was too late to retract. He had renounced his proper position in life it was too late for him now to claim it. And there had gone with it--Sybil. After all why should he arrogate to himself judgment The sins of his father were not his concern. It was chiefly he who suffered by his present attitude yet he had chosen it .
