CHAPTER ONE
„WILL you marry me, Maddy? We‟ll live
in my big white house on the hill and
 
have strawberries for breakfast every
morning.‟
 Nurse Madeleine Granger smiled.
„Sounds a good idea, especially thestrawberries. I‟d love to marry you, M
rBryce, but people might say I
was after your money.‟
 
„It‟s my money, I can do what I wantwith it. And I‟d do anything to stop the
Chancellor of the Exchequer getting it
all. Ow!‟
 
„I‟m sorry. I know it hurts, but…‟
 
„It doesn‟t matter. My fault for trippi
ng
up the stairs and scratching my leg.‟
 
„This was more than a scratch. I‟ve
been treating it for ten days now
—
and
it‟s only just starting to heal.‟ Maddy
dusted antiseptic powder
 
over the ulcerated shin, then reached
for a dressing. Sometimes old people‟s
 wounds took a long time to heal,especially when there was littleflesh between skin and bone. AndMalcolm Bryce was an eighty-five-year-old widower. But he was alert,sprightly and had made more newfriends than anyone else on the ship.
„So you won‟t marry me? I‟m going tobe terribly disappointed.‟ She loved the
mischievous sparkle in his eyes whenhe teased her.
„I‟d certainly marry you if I wanted tomarry anyone. But I don‟t. For me
marriage is out. O-U-
T.‟
 There was a keenness in his faded
eyes. „You
 
seem very certain of that.‟
