Excerpt from My Lady's Diamonds
In the course of a year also he felt that he would be able to marry, if things kept at their present level. For he was no man to let a girl feel that she would have to endure poverty if she married him. Perhaps this was the reason why he had not yet made a formal proposal, and it was possible also that Joan thought him a little over cautious. But she had not shown him any cold ness, and that was the reason why he felt rather surprised when she had refused to go for a walk with him simply because old Professor Fair weather, who had known her father in days gone by, was coming to dine at the Tower, where she was a guest.
