'' `` Never mind me , '' said Stephen , brightening up determinedly . `` I 'm going to go into the lumber business enthusiastically . You do n't know what unsuspected talents I may develop along that line . The worst of it is that we ca n't be together . But I 'll keep my eyes open , and perhaps I 'll find a place for you in Lessing . '' Alexina said nothing . Her separation from Stephen was the one point in their fortunes she could not bear to discuss . There were times when Alexina did not see how she was going to exist without Stephen . But she never said so to him . She thought he had enough to worry him without her making matters worse . `` Well , '' said Stephen , getting up , `` I 'll run down to the office . And see here , Lexy . Day after tomorrow is Christmas . Are we going to celebrate it at all ? If so I 'd better order the turkey . '' Alexina looked thoughtful . `` I do n't know , Stephen .
