Mr. Ridgway, ma'am. The young woman who was giving the last touches
to the very effective picture framed in her long looking-glass
nodded almost imperceptibly. She had come to the parting of the
ways, and she knew it, with a shrewd suspicion as to which she
would choose. She had asked for a week to decide, and her
heart-searching had told her nothing new. It was characteristic of
Virginia Balfour that she did not attempt to deceive herself. If
she married Waring Ridgway it would be for what she considered good
and sufficient reasons, but love would not be one of them. He was
going to be a great man, for one thing, and probably a very rich
one, which counted, though it would not be a determining factor.
This she could find only in the man himself, in the masterful force
that made him what he was. The sandstings of life did not disturb
his confidence in his victorious star, nor did he let fine-spun
moral obligations hamper his predatory career. He had a genius for
success in whatever he undertook, pushing his way to his end with a
shrewd, direct energy that never faltered.
