He compelled me to profane the sacred name of father, and yet I did not realize my shame until the day I met you. I sat to you for my portrait, and as you talked I felt a whole new world opening before me. I knew then, for the first time, that I was unworthy of the love of an honest man. Ah! Goutran, how I have suffered in loving you!" And the poor girl sank on her knees, a very Magdalen.
He had not asked himself this question. Goutran ran after him. "Where are you carrying that dead body?" he shouted. Esperance stopped short. "Was she dead?" he asked himself. "No, no," he cried, "she lives she breathes! She must not die!" "Do you know this woman?" asked Goutran. Suddenly he started back. Jane was still wrapped in the oriental stuff. He remembered the material.
Do you think I would allow common upholsterers to touch your treasures! I wish to mount step-ladders in my shirt sleeves, with a big hammer in my hand, and put them up myself." And, as Esperance looked at him with troubled surprise, Goutran continued: "My dear friend, open your boxes for me, let me select what I want.
It was she whose life he had so recently saved it was Jane Zeld. A small revolver lay at her side. Esperance, bearing her in his vigorous arms, made his way into the road. Goutran had not seen the face of the burthen borne by Esperance, who had uttered no name, and whose movements had been so rapid that Goutran had some difficulty in overtaking him. Where did Esperance propose to go?
There must be in the Hôtel de Monte-Cristo some secret issue which our enemies do not know. The infamous L must possess this secret. Do your best to discover it. You see that I place my reliance on you, for I love you. Carmen uttered a joyous exclamation. Goutran loved her! Coucon turned toward her. "Well," he asked, "what am I to tell him?"
"Return to Monsieur Goutran and tell him that if it costs me my life I will discover what he wishes to know. And remember that you must open the door of the hôtel to me at whatever time I may come. Of course, you and Monsieur Goutran will be there all night. Now, go!" At this moment a terrified looking servant entered the room. "Mademoiselle," he said, "your father has just been taken ill."
"Listen to me. Every word I speak I have thoroughly weighed, and I understand my duty. I hope my frankness will at least win your esteem, and possibly your pity." "My pity! Ah! Carmen, for God's sake do not say such things!" "I have not finished. Goutran, I love you, deeply and sincerely.
Omar was very solemn, but under his moustache he whispered: "I come from Monsieur Goutran." "Who are you?" she asked, raising her fan to hide her lips as she spoke. Whenever the crowd came too near he raised his arm, and with a grand sweep of bournous, hand and arm, he said: "Allah il Allah! Rassoul il Allah!" Everybody drew back much impressed, for the incomprehensible has always great power.
Do not fail, for you and those you love are in danger." Goutran was amazed. What did these mysterious lines mean? And of whom did Carmen speak when she said "those you love"? He was greatly disturbed, but he was not the man to hesitate.
A few days ago, when on the terrace of your house my hands rested in yours, I fully realized that, so far as you were concerned, a tacit engagement from that moment existed between us." "From that moment," interrupted Goutran, "I felt that if you would accept my hand and name " "And yet you did not apply to Monsieur Laisangy?" said Carmen, gently. "Did you doubt me? I did not dare."
