A Maker of History
E. Phillips Oppenheim
Phyllis entered the room and came towards them. She was dressed
in black, and she was still pale, but her eyes and mouth were wholly
without affinity to the class of young person whom Henri had
expected to see. He rose and bowed, and Phyllis regarded him with
frank interest.
"Phyllis," the Marquise said, "this is the Vicomte de Bergillac, and he
brings you messages from some one or other. Your affairs are quite
too complicated for my little head. Sit down and let him talk to you."
"If Monsieur le Vicomte has brought me messages from the right
person," Phyllis said with a smile, "he will be very welcome.
Seriously, Monsieur, I seem to have fallen amongst friends here
whose only unkindness is an apparent desire to turn my life into a
maze. I hope that you are going to lead me out.
