noon
You are felt in this establishment , my valued friend , like some tarrying Nemesis . Permit me to observe , and I am smiling as I write , that you have a wearing effect upon many of my guests . Personally , I should ask nothing finer of the Fates than the privilege to devote myself exclusively to you -- but that is impossible now . To-morrow at noon my servants will assist you to any quarters elsewhere , that you may have chosen by that time -- if , indeed , you are staying longer in Coral City . Believe me , when a certain tension is lifted , my house will be open to you again , as is always the heart of CELESTINO REY . The morning rode in grandly upon the sea . Bedient was early below , and overtook Miss Mallory in the gardens .
