D'Artagnan twisted his mustache like a man embarrassed with the confidence he is about to make and mistrustful of his confidant. "Is it an investment?" asked Planchet. "Why, yes." "At good profit?" "A capital profit, four hundred per cent, Planchet." Planchet gave such a blow with his fist upon the table, that the bottles bounded as if they had been frightened. "Good heavens! is that possible?"
He is not jealous of my past or of the future; but he is jealously mistrustful of me, of what I am, of my very soul. He believes in a soul in the same way Therese does, as something that can be touched with grace or go to perdition; and he doesn’t want to be damned with me before his own judgment seat.
I took the effect for the cause. The day I was convinced that culpable relations existed between Raoul and Mme. Fauvel, I thought I held the end of the thread that must lead us to the truth. I should have been more mistrustful; this solution was too simple, too natural." "Do you suppose Mme. Fauvel to be innocent?" "Certainly not. But her guilt is not such as I first supposed.
"But it's them niggers I'm mistrustful of; though, I think, if you was to let 'em know that you'll hang half-a-dozen of them if any harm comes to her, they'll be inclined to treat her properly."
A bargain, if you and Dean obey me. Disarm him, Prince, and bring him out." Miko moved back into the radio room. On the deck, Coniston was advancing, but cautiously mistrustful of me. "Gregg."

No ray was upon us.
As we had already paid the money to his son, we would not let him take the milk away until he had brought the money back. He then took a dagger from his waist and threw it before us as security, while he carried off the vessel and returned the price. I have frequently seen the same mistrustful spirit exhibited in Egypt.
Meanwhile, Lucian was considering how he could best make Lydia not only repudiate Cashel's acquaintance, but feel thoroughly ashamed of herself for having encouraged him, and wholesomely mistrustful of her own judgment for the future.
The captain's cold eyes, high up on the poop, glittered mistrustful, as he surveyed us trooping in a small mob from halyards to braces for the usual evening pull at all the ropes. Such stealing in a merchant ship is difficult to check, and may be taken as a declaration by men of their dislike for their officers. It is a bad symptom. It may end in God knows what trouble.
And when he was notified that distinguished Venetians were going to meet Emperor Maximilian on his arrival in Italy, "No matter," said Louis; "let them go whither they will." The Florentines did not the less nourish their mistrustful presentiments; and one of Louis XII.'s most intelligent advisers, his finance-minister Florimond Robertet, was not slow to share them.
"This snake is quite harmless, and I should never touch one without taking papa's advice, even if it exactly resembled this." "And you didn't repeat any words?" "No; papa had it in his hands, and it coiled round his arm." "I understand, then," murmured the Indian; "it is the serpent that is charmed." Gringalet, quite as mistrustful as l'Encuerado, ran off directly he saw the reptile move.
