Her own daughter had fallen foul of the ill-will of certain critics. "Half-past twelve!" said Chevalier gloomily. "Félicie is late." Madame Nanteuil supposed that she had been detained by Madame Doulce. "Madame Doulce as a rule undertakes to see her home, and you know she never hurries herself." Chevalier rose, as if to take his leave, to show that he remembered his manners.
She grasped the hand which Ligny offered her, and, exploring his wrist with her fingers, dug her nail into the spot, close to the veins, where the skin is tender. Then she disappeared into the dark corridor. Chevalier, having resumed his ordinary clothes, sat in a corner box, beside Madame Doulce, gazing at Félicie, a small remote figure on the stage.
Lifting a finger to his forehead, he remarked: "She plays with that." Then, placing his hand upon his heart, he added: "It is with this that one should act." "Thanks, dear friend, thanks!" murmured Madame Doulce, who read into these maxims an obvious eulogy of herself.
I could give you many examples. I myself, in La Vivandière d'Austerlitz, staggered the house by my gaiety of tone, when I had just been informed that my Doulce, so great an artist and so good a husband, had had an epileptic fit in the orchestra at the Odéon, just as he was picking up his cornet."
Lydie, the little super, is screaming like a stoat on the stairs. She says Delage tried to violate her. It's at least the tenth time in a month that she has come out with that story. This is an infernal nuisance!" "Such conduct cannot be tolerated in a house like this," said Pradel. "You'll have to fine Delage. Pray continue, Madame Doulce."
Before Trublet could answer, Madame Doulce exclaimed that fits of dizziness always proceeded from the stomach, and that two or three hours after meals she experienced a feeling of distension in hers, and she thereupon asked the doctor for a remedy. Félicie, however, was thinking, for she was capable of thought.
