She seems sure of herself and at the same time shows a little stage fright, a special variety which makes her hands like ice, and tightens her throat, as you must have noticed from the strain in her first speeches." "Indeed I noticed it, and was a little frightened," said Mlle. Frahender. "I know," said Jean Perliez, "but we need not be worried.
Jean Perliez joined them, his face betraying a conflict of emotions that were not lost on the father of Esperance. "Did you see my daughter?" "Yes. I just went to congratulate her." "How did you find her?" "Amazing! She is splendid, but not vain.
"You will be able to wear them in a play, at the theatre," said Madame Darbois, but her tone lacked assurance, for she did not know whether that would be possible either. M. Darbois had turned his attention to the notices, having pushed aside the descriptive paragraphs. He read them and gave them to his wife. "Your godfather came to complain to us of Maurice, of Jean Perliez, and of yourself.
Which one of the judges had not been able to contain his admiration? The young actors could not decide. Each one believed sincerely the success was due to the other. They congratulated each other with charming expressions of delight, and took each other by the hand. "We shall be good friends, shall we not, M. Perliez?" said Esperance.
As to Jean Perliez, the poor little ninny is head over heels in love with her. I don't suppose that you have noticed it?" "Not only noticed it, but encouraged the young man," said Francois, "and he would be a very honourable and desirable son-in-law."

I will take all four of you into my little office where no one can disturb you." Mlle. Hardouin was a beautiful, modest young girl of eighteen, with charming manners.
Jean Perliez contemplated Esperance and smiled sadly, if gladly too, at the thought that she was going to be delivered from the dangerous Duke de Morlay-La-Branche. They sat down on a high rock overlooking the little beach of Penhouet and remained silent for a while. "How very beautiful it is," murmured Albert at last. "You love the sea, do you not, Mlle. Esperance?"
As to Jean Perliez, he had become more and more resigned that his love should remain forever in the shade, unlimited devotion for all time, all his being offered in sacrifice to the frail idol, who went her way star-gazing, unsuspecting all the time that she was trampling upon hearts under her foot.
Count Styvens belonged to the foreign diplomacy and was very particular, and no one had infringed on his privacy since the little affair in the Brussels music hall. That left only Jean Perliez, who was merely sincere and pathetic; the public did not want to read that kind of thing! So much for the little journalist.
