You do not understand!
Lionnette.
No; I believe, I hope, that you are still madder than usual. What is it?
John (drawing some papers from his pocket).
What is all this? It is this, that Mr. Nourvady has had all your debts paid. He had no wish to do me the honour of paying mine; but you, you owe nothing any more. That is what it is. Now do you understand?
Lionnette (stupified).
Mr. Nourvady!
John.
Yes, Mr. Nourvady, your lover!
Lionnette (indignantly).
