"Miss Hunniford?" Persephone echoed in question.
She thought back to the day of which Mr. Applegate spoke. It had been almost a year ago, now, but had been a remarkable enough occurance that Persy remembered the details as best she could—though those details were rather sparce insofar as the other women concerned. If she recalled correctly, Miss Hunniford had been particualrly overwrought by the whole ordeal, though she had not seemed to trouble Mr. Applegate more than any of the ladies present.
"Forgive me, Mr. Applegate—it appears you once again know something I do not. Why would Miss Hunniford's presence make you a masochist?"
Even as she said it, it dawned on Persy that the two surely had some sort of... connection. It must have been the memory issue that had prevented it from coming to light at the time.
