I said . `` Yes , she is a friend of mine . She -- she never told me his name , but putting two and two together , I believe it must have been your cousin . But she -- she thinks she was the one to blame . '' `` Does she ? '' It was my turn to ask questions now , but my heart thumped so that I could hardly speak . `` Yes , she says she was too hasty and unreasonable . She did n't mean to flirt at all -- and she never cared for anyone but -- him . But his jealousy irritated her . I suppose she said things to him she did n't really mean . She -- she never supposed he was going to take her at her word . '' `` Do you think she cares for him still ? '' Considering what was at stake , I think I asked the question very well . `` I think she must , '' said Jane languidly . `` She has never looked at any other man . She devotes most of her time to charitable work , but I feel sure she is n't really happy . '' So the settlement story was true . Oh , Jane ! `` What would you advise my cousin to do ? '' I asked .
`` Do you think he should go boldly XXXXX her ?
Jane So at for of stake that time to word
