Lady Susan: Chapter 33

Chapter 33

XXXIII


LADY SUSAN TO MRS. JOHNSON


Upper Seymour Street.


This eclaircissement is rather provoking. How unlucky that you should
have been from home! I thought myself sure of you at seven! I am undismayed
however. Do not torment yourself with fears on my account; depend on it, I
can make my story good with Reginald. Mainwaring  is just gone; he brought
me the news of his wife's arrival. Silly woman, what does she expect by
such manoeuvres.? Yet I wish she had stayed quietly at Langford.  Reginald
will be a little enraged at first, but by to-morrow's dinner, everything
will be well again.

Adieu!

S. V.
