Each of you knows the danger in which she stands, because each of you is conscious in her heart of the evil for which she is responsible. But you are carried away by hatred; and it is for me to see clearly and to act. The examining-magistrate will be here in half-an-hour. By that time, you must have come to an agreement." They both started, as though offended by such a word.
I SHALL know how to prevent you!" "Good-by, Philippe," said the viscount again and left the room. This scene was described to the examining-magistrate by the count himself, who did not see Raoul again until that evening, at the Opera, a few minutes before Christine's disappearance. Raoul, in fact, devoted the whole day to his preparations for the flight.
He was back from the post-office, where he had been telephoning to Le Havre, to the office of the procurator-general, and had been told that the public prosecutor and an examining-magistrate would come on to Etretat in the course of the afternoon. "That leaves us plenty of time for lunch," said Renine. "The tragedy will not be enacted before two or three o'clock.
At the mention of her children, Madame d'Ormeval broke down and sobbed. Germaine Astaing shrugged her shoulders and made a movement towards the door. Renine once more blocked the way: "Where are you going?" "I have been summoned by the examining-magistrate." "No, you have not." "Yes, I have. Just as all those have been who have any evidence to give." "You were not on the spot.
This is a summary enquiry which I am conducting in your presence and which will be continued later by the examining-magistrate; and I wished above all to explain to you the very serious reasons for which I asked you to interrupt your journey and to come back here with Madame de Gorne. You are now in a position to refute the truly distressing charges that are hanging over you.
Slowly, with her eyes raised to a mirror, she adjusted her hat and powdered her face. Then she walked to the door. Therese darted forward: "Where are you going?" "Where I choose." "To see the examining-magistrate?" "Very likely." "You sha'n't pass!" "As you please. I'll wait for him here." "And you'll tell him what?" "Why, all that you've said, of course, all that you've been silly enough to say.
This phrase was afterward repeated to M. Faure, the examining-magistrate. But no one ever knew exactly what passed between the two brothers at this interview. The servants declared that this was not their first quarrel. Their voices penetrated the wall; and it was always an actress called Christine Daae that was in question.
A single fact will make the situation clearer to you. Less than an hour ago, M. de Thaller's stockholders, offered him money to make up the loss." And, after a moment of silence, "But this is not all. Justice has interfered; and M. de Thaller spent the morning with an examining-magistrate." "Well?"
It was at this moment that the motor-car containing the examining-magistrate and the public prosecutor pulled up outside the chalets. Renine, who did not expect them until later, said to Hortense: "We must be quick. On no account leave Madame d'Ormeval."
The examining-magistrate will be here presently; and the fact that the dagger and the pocket-book are in your possession will lead to your immediate arrest. This must not happen. Please allow me." His insinuating voice diminished Therese d'Ormeval's resistance. She released her fingers, one by one.
