He was a surgeon at St. Luke's hospital, and had come to study the methods of the French doctors; but the real object of his visit to Paris was certainly to see Margaret Dauncey.
He looked upon himself as a happy man. He loved Margaret with all his heart and he was sure of her affection to him. It was impossible that anything could disturb the pleasant life they had planned together. 'We're going to fix the date of our marriage now,' Arthur remarked to Dr. Porhoet. 'I'm buying furniture already.' 'I think only English people could behave as oddly as you in postponing your marriage without any reason for two years,' replied the doctor. 'You see, Margaret was ten when I first saw her, and only seventeen when I asked her to marry me. She seemed hardly ready for marriage. She was still growing. We loved each other and we had a long time before us. We could wait.' Indeed the story of their love was very romantic. Margaret was the daughter of a lawyer with whom Arthur had been friendly, and when he died, many years after his wife, Arthur became the girl's guardian. He tried to give her everything she could possibly want, and when at 17 she told him of her wish to go to Paris and learn drawing, he agreed at once. The preparations for the journey were made when Margaret discovered by chance that her father had died penniless and she had lived ever since at Arthur's expense. When she went to see him with tears in her eyes and told him what she knew, Arthur was very embarrassed. 'But why did you do it?' she asked him. ’Why didn't you tell me?' ’I didn't want to‘ to feel any obligation to me, and I wanted you to feel quite free.' She cried. She could not stop her tears. 'Don't be silly,'‘ he laughed. 'You owe me nothing. I've done very little for you, and what I have done has given me a great deal of pleasure.' 'I don't know how I can ever repay you.' 'Oh, don't say that,' he cried out. 'This makes it much more difficult for me to say what I want to.' She looked at him quickly and reddened. 'I would do anything in the world for you,' she said. 'I don't want you to be grateful to me, because I hoped... I'd be able to ask you to marry me someday...' Margaret laughed as she held out her hands. 'You must know that I've wanted you to say that since I was ten.' She was quite willing to give up her idea of Paris and be married immediately but Arthur had made up his mind they could not marry till she was nineteen. He asked her not to change her plans and to go to Paris but suggested that she should not live alone; because of that she went to live with Susie.
