The Widow Lerouge

CHAPTER V
39/56

What client would confide his interests to the imbecile who ruined himself for the woman who has been the talk of all Paris?
I am not a great lord, I have neither an historical name to tarnish, nor an immense fortune to lose.

I am plain Noel Gerdy, a advocate.

My reputation is all that I possess.

It is a false one, I admit.

Such as it is, however, I must keep it, and I will keep it." Juliette who knew her Noel thoroughly, saw that she had gone far enough.
