“That's true,” said Estella, with a cold careless smile that always chilled me.
After looking at the twilight without, for a little while, she went on to say: —
“The time has come round when Miss Havisham wishes to have me for a day at Satis. You are to take me there, and bring me back, if you will. She would rather I did not travel alone, and objects to receiving my maid, for she has a sensitive horror of being talked of by such people. Can you take me?”
“Can I take you, Estella!”
“You can then? The day after to-morrow, if you please.
You are to pay all charges out of my purse, You hear the condition of your going?”
