"
Well
,
"
said
he
,
"
let
us
go
to
Valentine
;
I
will
give
instructions
to
every
one
,
and
you
,
M.
de
Villefort
,
will
yourself
see
that
no
one
deviates
from
them
.
"
At
the
moment
when
d'Avrigny
was
returning
to
Valentine
's
room
,
accompanied
by
Villefort
,
an
Italian
priest
,
of
serious
demeanor
and
calm
and
firm
tone
,
hired
for
his
use
the
house
adjoining
the
hotel
of
M.
de
Villefort
.
No
one
knew
how
the
three
former
tenants
of
that
house
left
it
.
About
two
hours
afterwards
its
foundation
was
reported
to
be
unsafe
;
but
the
report
did
not
prevent
the
new
occupant
establishing
himself
there
with
his
modest
furniture
the
same
day
at
five
o'clock
.
The
lease
was
drawn
up
for
three
,
six
,
or
nine
years
by
the
new
tenant
,
who
,
according
to
the
rule
of
the
proprietor
,
paid
six
months
in
advance
.
This
new
tenant
,
who
,
as
we
have
said
,
was
an
Italian
,
was
called
Il
Signor
Giacomo
Busoni
.
Workmen
were
immediately
called
in
,
and
that
same
night
the
passengers
at
the
end
of
the
faubourg
saw
with
surprise
that
carpenters
and
masons
were
occupied
in
repairing
the
lower
part
of
the
tottering
house
.
We
saw
in
a
preceding
chapter
how
Madame
Danglars
went
formally
to
announce
to
Madame
de
Villefort
the
approaching
marriage
of
Eugenie
Danglars
and
M.
Andrea
Cavalcanti
.
This
announcement
,
which
implied
or
appeared
to
imply
,
the
approval
of
all
the
persons
concerned
in
this
momentous
affair
,
had
been
preceded
by
a
scene
to
which
our
readers
must
be
admitted
.
We
beg
them
to
take
one
step
backward
,
and
to
transport
themselves
,
the
morning
of
that
day
of
great
catastrophes
,
into
the
showy
,
gilded
salon
we
have
before
shown
them
,
and
which
was
the
pride
of
its
owner
,
Baron
Danglars
.
In
this
room
,
at
about
ten
o'clock
in
the
morning
,
the
banker
himself
had
been
walking
to
and
fro
for
some
minutes
thoughtfully
and
in
evident
uneasiness
,
watching
both
doors
,
and
listening
to
every
sound
.
When
his
patience
was
exhausted
,
he
called
his
valet
.
"
Etienne
,
"
said
he
,
"
see
why
Mademoiselle
Eugenie
has
asked
me
to
meet
her
in
the
drawing-room
,
and
why
she
makes
me
wait
so
long
.
"

Having
given
this
vent
to
his
ill-humor
,
the
baron
became
more
calm
;
Mademoiselle
Danglars
had
that
morning
requested
an
interview
with
her
father
,
and
had
fixed
on
the
gilded
drawing-room
as
the
spot
.
The
singularity
of
this
step
,
and
above
all
its
formality
,
had
not
a
little
surprised
the
banker
,
who
had
immediately
obeyed
his
daughter
by
repairing
first
to
the
drawing-room
.
Etienne
soon
returned
from
his
errand
.
"
Mademoiselle
's
lady
's
maid
says
,
sir
,
that
mademoiselle
is
finishing
her
toilette
,
and
will
be
here
shortly
.
"
Danglars
nodded
,
to
signify
that
he
was
satisfied
.
To
the
world
and
to
his
servants
Danglars
assumed
the
character
of
the
good-natured
man
and
the
indulgent
father
.
This
was
one
of
his
parts
in
the
popular
comedy
he
was
performing
--
a
make-up
he
had
adopted
and
which
suited
him
about
as
well
as
the
masks
worn
on
the
classic
stage
by
paternal
actors
,
who
seen
from
one
side
,
were
the
image
of
geniality
,
and
from
the
other
showed
lips
drawn
down
in
chronic
ill-temper
.
Let
us
hasten
to
say
that
in
private
the
genial
side
descended
to
the
level
of
the
other
,
so
that
generally
the
indulgent
man
disappeared
to
give
place
to
the
brutal
husband
and
domineering
father
.
"
Why
the
devil
does
that
foolish
girl
,
who
pretends
to
wish
to
speak
to
me
,
not
come
into
my
study
?
and
why
on
earth
does
she
want
to
speak
to
me
at
all
?
"
He
was
turning
this
thought
over
in
his
brain
for
the
twentieth
time
,
when
the
door
opened
and
Eugenie
appeared
,
attired
in
a
figured
black
satin
dress
,
her
hair
dressed
and
gloves
on
,
as
if
she
were
going
to
the
Italian
Opera
.
"
Well
,
Eugenie
,
what
is
it
you
want
with
me
?
and
why
in
this
solemn
drawing-room
when
the
study
is
so
comfortable
?

"
I
quite
understand
why
you
ask
,
sir
,
"
said
Eugenie
,
making
a
sign
that
her
father
might
be
seated
,
"
and
in
fact
your
two
questions
suggest
fully
the
theme
of
our
conversation
.
I
will
answer
them
both
,
and
contrary
to
the
usual
method
,
the
last
first
,
because
it
is
the
least
difficult
.
I
have
chosen
the
drawing-room
,
sir
,
as
our
place
of
meeting
,
in
order
to
avoid
the
disagreeable
impressions
and
influences
of
a
banker
's
study
.
Those
gilded
cashbooks
,
drawers
locked
like
gates
of
fortresses
,
heaps
of
bank-bills
,
come
from
I
know
not
where
,
and
the
quantities
of
letters
from
England
,
Holland
,
Spain
,
India
,
China
,
and
Peru
,
have
generally
a
strange
influence
on
a
father
's
mind
,
and
make
him
forget
that
there
is
in
the
world
an
interest
greater
and
more
sacred
than
the
good
opinion
of
his
correspondents
.
I
have
,
therefore
,
chosen
this
drawing-room
,
where
you
see
,
smiling
and
happy
in
their
magnificent
frames
,
your
portrait
,
mine
,
my
mother
's
,
and
all
sorts
of
rural
landscapes
and
touching
pastorals
.
I
rely
much
on
external
impressions
;
perhaps
,
with
regard
to
you
,
they
are
immaterial
,
but
I
should
be
no
artist
if
I
had
not
some
fancies
.
"
"
Very
well
,
"
replied
M.
Danglars
,
who
had
listened
to
all
this
preamble
with
imperturbable
coolness
,
but
without
understanding
a
word
,
since
like
every
man
burdened
with
thoughts
of
the
past
,
he
was
occupied
with
seeking
the
thread
of
his
own
ideas
in
those
of
the
speaker
.
