Greek Wedding (1970)
“It was bad enough when Brett and Jenny caught up with them and she was aware at once of her own confusion and of Jenny’s bright enquiring eye upon it, but it was much worse to return to the Helena and find herself, for the first time, keeping an important secret from her aunt. It tarnished, ever so slightly, the golden glow of her happiness, but she had given her word, and there was nothing she could do about it until Alex returned to release her.
Her comfort was that things seemed at last to b...e moving quickly towards the liberation of Greece. Soon Alex would take his rightful place and there would be no more need for secrecy. Preparations for the relief of the Acropolis were going on apace, and she had the happiness of knowing that some of the soldiers assembling for the attack had been paid for by her money, or rather by Peter’s. But now, anxiety for Peter was compounded by that for Alex. If only she knew where he was … He had said no more about his dangerous mission when they had parted, so publicly, on the crowded deck of the Helena.MoreLess
