The Lady of the Camellias (2013)
“I arrived at Bougival at eleven o’clock.
Not one window of the house was lit, and I rang, but nobody answered.
It was the first time such a thing had happened to me. At last the gardener appeared. I went in.
Nanine joined me with a light. I came to Marguerite’s room.
“Where is madam?”
“Madam went to Paris,” Nanine responded.
“To Paris!”
“Yes, sir.”
“When?”
“An hour after you.”
“Did she leave a note for you to give me?”
“Nothing.”
Nanine left me.
... “It is possible she was afraid,” I thought, “and went to Paris to make sure the visit I’d told her I was making to see my father was not a pretext for a day of freedom.”
“Maybe Prudence wrote her about some important business,”MoreLess
