"But at any rate," and here he extended his hand to Ramel, "you will see me this evening?" "Certainly." "And you still live at ?" "Rue Boursault, Boulevard des Batignolles." "Till then, my dear Ramel! If occasion require, you will not refuse to give me your advice?" "Nor my devotion. But without office, remember without office," said Ramel, still smiling.
On the way he thought of the eternal antitheses of Parisian life: the news of the death of a friend communicated to him at the Opéra while a waltz-tune was being played! And thinking to himself: "From the Opéra to the Opéra! That, moreover, is the history of my ministry and that of the Granet administration, probably!" The portress at Rue Boursault led him to Denis Ramel's apartment.

Georges was about to follow her but she commanded: "I forbid you to follow me," in a voice so loud that the passers-by crowded around her, and Duroy dared not stir for fear of a scandal. She drew out her purse, and taking two francs fifty from it, she handed it to the cabman, saying aloud: "Here is the money for your hour. Take that rascal to Rue Boursault at Batignolles!"
"I shall be cooler with age!" Sulpice replied with a laugh. From time to time he went to seek advice from Ramel, as he had promised. The little shopkeepers and laundresses of Rue Boursault hardly suspected when they saw a coupé stop at the door of the old journalist, that a minister alighted from it.
