"Why do you have to leave, Jane?" he asked innocently. "Why? What do you mean, why?" I cried, amazed. "Because you're marrying Miss Ingram. She wouldn't want me here. She's your bride." "My bride! I have no bride!" he answered. "But I will have one, and you must stay!" "I won't stay here, I won't!" I shouted angrily, standing up. "Do you think I can watch you marry another woman? Do you think I am a machine, with no feelings? Do you think, sir, that because I'm small and poor and not pretty, that I have no soul and no heart? Well, you're wrong! I have as much soul and heart as you, or more! And I know my heart speaks to yours. We are equal!"
