This, explained Von Ritz, was only the final precaution of preparing for every exigency. His Majesty was determined not to leave his city alive, until he could leave it in the full security of his established government. The King also made another request.
"The manager of the hotel has spoken to me about it. He has asked me, in fact, to leave." "To leave the hotel?" "Yes! I was on my way to the Ritz to secure rooms when I met you." The Vicomte sipped his absinthe gravely. "I should not take those rooms," he said. "You will in all probability not occupy them." "Why not?"
We are going to the Ritz, I suppose!" At eight o'clock in the evening Lucille knocked at the door of Lady Carey's suite of rooms at the hotel. There was no answer. A chambermaid who was near came smiling up. "Miladi has, I think, descended for dinner," she said. Lucille looked at her watch. She saw that she was a few minutes late, so she descended to the restaurant.
A good master would not do it to his dog. But, on the other hand they have not yet built the Ritz here." "I am not asking you to go from your house, Alex. I had for a moment, when I saw who Syvorotka was a little ray of sunshine. I see I am mistaken. Could you take me to the depot, then?" "I shall do nothing of the kind," I answered. "Nobody warned me you might come here. I was not ready.
We had a pleasant little time at the Ritz that afternoon, and my opinion of the gentleman is that he's the right sort, I'm here to give you the office, sir, to get him away from London and get him away quick. I may know a trifle more than I've told you, or I may not; but you'll take my advice if you want to escape trouble." "I'll do what I can," I assured him a little blankly.
See to it, then; do what you like, but bring her with you, and bring her here. "You will realize the importance of all this when I tell you that my answer to Mr. Tyler must be in before noon to-morrow. That answer will depend upon the answer the Baroness von Ritz makes to me, here, to-night! I can not go to her, so she must come to me. You have often served me well, my son. Serve me to-night.
From the first my presence in this luridly adventurous galley had been incongruous; I would get back with all despatch to the Ritz and the orderly world it typified. I had gone perhaps twenty feet when a grating noise attracted me. Glancing back across my shoulder, I saw that the old majordomo was unlocking and setting wide the gate.
It was a relief; I had been wanting to say it ever since we had first met. His jaw shot out menacingly, and for an instant he squared off from me with the look of the professional boxer; but, rather to my disappointment, he thought better of it and turned a contemptuous back. Upon leaving Genoa I had reserved a room at the Ritz by telegraph.
"I understand, Colonel Von Ritz," she innocently suggested, "that you are to impersonate a polar bear." The Galavian smiled deep in his eyes only; his lips remained sober. One would have said that he had not recognized the thrust. "I shall only remain myself," he replied. "I am allowed to be a looker-on in Venice." Under her breath the widow confided to her next neighbor: "Ah! then it is true."
Meanwhile Sally ran for a long stretch, then she began to walk slower, for she had to think over so many things and she was so lost in her plans that she forgot when she arrived at the garden which stretched from her home far into the meadows. Ritz stood on the low wall and beckoned with wild gestures, for Sally had not seen him at first.
