The Haunted Palace - Deciding to Restore the Old House
Ann Ward: [comes outside to join him on the balcony]
Charles? You ready?
Charles Dexter Ward:
I've decided to stay.
Ann Ward:
What?
Charles Dexter Ward:
Just long enough to fix the place up. With a little work it could bring a good price. Don't you think?
Ann Ward:
I should imagine. I don't know.
Charles Dexter Ward:
I estimate two weeks, perhaps three. To get things started, anyway. Do you mind, Ann?
Ann Ward:
No, not exactly. But I can't say it pleases me.
Charles Dexter Ward:
Well, then you go home!
Ann Ward:
Charles!
Charles Dexter Ward:
I'm sorry Ann. It's just that I... well, I... I can't leave now until I find out... some things.
