Excerpt from Peter Middleton
Yes! Nina was safe. That was a comforting thought. And Nina had pride. But what the devil had she ever seen in him? That question no sooner proposed itself than it became transformed into a subtle assurance of personal superiority. There must be a something about him, no matter what, a something nevertheless that women saw and approved. Nina had seen it and Nina was his. He started pitying Bromley poor Bromley with his square jowl and thick drooping lips. Bromley had money, plenty of it. Bro'mley's fliers in Wall Street were notoriously successful. He needed some compensa tion poor brute. How love must laugh at him, thought Peter. And he was pleased with the fancy.
Peter Middleton was twenty-three and ranked the third child and second son of John and Sarah Middleton. His mother was a Penting, a fact she never concealed.
