She looked at me entreatingly, almost desperately, and I took hold of Réchamp's arm with a warning pressure. "My dear fellow, don't you see that Mlle. Malo has been under a great strain? La joie fait peur that's the trouble with both of you!" He lowered his head. "Yes, I suppose it is."
"As if he could assist her," he murmured to himself. "As if all assistance were not now out of the question."
