MAIRAUT. Yes, don’t they? Well, that’s agreed, then?
DUPONT. Quite. The moneys to be held jointly. All moneys, that is, that may come to them in the future. The first twentyfive thousand, of course, will be settled on Julie. They will form the dot.
MME. MAIRAUT. The second twentyfive thousand, which you will pay over in six months, to be held jointly.
DUPONT. Yes. We will draw up a little agreement.
MAIRAUT. Quite so.
Antonin Mairaut comes in. He is a handsome youth of twenty-eight, very correct in manner. Greetings are exchanged.
MME. MAIRAUT. Antonin. [To Dupont and Madame Dupont] You allow me?
MME. DUPONT. By all means.
MME. MAIRAUT [She draws Antonin aside and says to him in a low voice] It’s settled.
ANTONIN. How much?
