The Suffragette Scandal (The Brothers Sinister) - Plot & Excerpts
OLIVER SAID LATER that night. “We haven’t had much time to talk, but—” Free yawned. It was not quite by design, that yawn. She was tired. After the guests had left, she’d stayed up even later composing changes to her article the next day. Oliver had sent one of his servants off to the telegraph office, and then had brought her up to the room he’d set aside for her for the evening. He smiled at her. “And I know you’re tired. But that fellow you’re working with, that Mr. Clark…” He paused, looked away. “I’m not sure he’s proper.” Free blinked at her brother. Oliver had paid her bail four times, had been the one to retrieve her from the lock hospital. He’d read every column she’d written in her paper. He knew how she spent her time. Propriety was not a word that had often been associated with her. That was a word that belonged to misses on the marriage mart. “Oliver, are you worried about my reputation? That’s sweet. Stupid, yes. But sweet.” He flushed.
