"Did you say that Monsieur Cherami was to come here to see you to-morrow?"
"Yes, uncle."
"Where are you to meet him, in your room or your office?"
"At my office."
"Did you indicate to him exactly that he was to follow the corridor, then turn to the left?"
"Yes, uncle."
"At what time is he to be here?"
"At noon. He will be prompt; he never fails to keep an appointment."
"Very well; about two o'clock to-morrow, I will give you a definite answer on the subject of your protégé."
"And it will be favorable, will it not, uncle?"
