Переведите текст) after that there didn't seem to be much more to say. "there's one thing i don't quite understand," i said finally. "people were surroundin'g you and staring at you up to the moment you left the gallery. how did aubrey manage to pass the statuettes to you without anyone seeing? " she rounded on me in a fury of surprise and indignation. "pass the statuettes to me? " she repeated. "good god! are you suggesting that i helped aubrey to steal them? " she looked like an angry goddess, and was about as charming. "but – but – " i stammered. "but if you didn't who will? "rosamund, of course. aubrey gave them to her while all was going on in front of the titian. she simply put them in her bag and walked out. i'd only just gotthem back from her when you came in." "rosamund! " it was my turn to be surprised. "then the whole thing was a put-up job between them? " "yes. they wanted to get married and hadn't any money, and she knew a dealer who would give a price for things like these with no questions asked and –and there you are." "then how did you come into it? " i asked. "aubrey said that if i posed in front of the titian it would be wonderful publicity for the exhibition – and, of course, i fell for it." she laughed.

"these will have to go back to the gallery, i suppose," she said, "can it be done without too much fuss? it's silly of me, i know, but i'd rather they didn't prosecute aubrey." i made sympathetic noises. "it was rosamund's idea in the first place," she went on. "i'm sure of that. aubrey hasn't the wits to think of anything so clever." "it was clever enough," i said. "but you saw through it at once. how was that? " deborah smiled. "i'm not clever," she said. "but that old dark picture with the glass on it made a perfect mirror. aubrey told me to stand in front of it, so i did. but i'm not interested in art, you know. i was looking at myself. and of course i couldn't help seeing what was happening just behind "
