?I?m sure there?s a reason,? stated Bernardine, still looking at the enigmatically passive face of
Dominique Lavier?I mean, this sweet old lady says nothing
?I?m not old!? cried the woman vehemently
?Of course not, my dear,? agreed the Deuxi?me veteran?Only more desirable in your mature
years
?Boy, did you hit it!?
?Why the Meurice?? asked Bernardine
?It?s the Jackal?s final trap for me,? answered Bourne?Courtesy of our persuasive Magdalen
