I see her," she said at length. "In the right-hand stand, near a pillar, eh? She's in mauve, and her daughter in white by her side. Dear me, there's Daguenet going to bow to them." Thereupon Philippe talked of Daguenet's approaching marriage with that lath of an Estelle. It was a settled matter the banns were being published.
Daguenet's laugh had recurred to her recollections, and she was harassed by a doubt. If that Fauchery had slandered her she would be revenged. "They say that it's about me," she continued, affecting indifference. "What's your notion, eh, darling?" And letting go her shift and waiting till Muffat should have done reading, she stood naked.
Yet when they wanted to take her into the dining room she still shouted "No!" furiously. Vandeuvres left the bedroom, smiling and without further pressing her, and the moment he was gone she had an access of melting tenderness, threw herself into Daguenet's arms and cried out: "Ah, my sweetie, there's only you in the world. I love you! YES, I love you from the bottom of my heart!
It was impossible to bear him a grudge! Daguenet's great successes with ladies of her class were due to the sweetness of his voice, a voice of such musical purity and pliancy as to have won him among courtesans the sobriquet of "Velvet-Mouth." Every woman would give way to him when he lulled her with his sonorous caresses.
