"He had a way with him. Before you had a chance to say no, he was there and done. That only happened to me once before, with a duke, who literally swept me off my feet, and before I knew what was happening, we'd done it. Another terrible mistake"

This quote is describing a guy who had a certain appeal and charisma that made it difficult to say no to him. He was able to get what he wanted before the other individual had a chance to object. Christine Keeler had experienced this before with a duke, who was so convincing that she found herself in a scenario she had not expected. This was a mistake, as it had actually been with the male in the quote, and she was left sensation regretful. This quote is a cautioning to be mindful of people who have a way with words and can quickly encourage you to do something you may not have meant. It is essential to be knowledgeable about the power of persuasion and to be mindful of the decisions we make.
