[Enter Lamblin.]
Lamblin [joyfully]. There, that's done. One hundred and two signatures. Kiss me, little one. In less than an hour I've earned a thousand francs for us. Isn't that splendid?
[Enter a servant.]
Servant. Monsieur?
Lamblin. What is it?
Servant [embarrassed]. Some one—from the office—who wishes to speak with Monsieur.
Lamblin. From the office? At this time?
Servant. Yes, Monsieur.
Lamblin. Say that I am with my family, and that I am not receiving any one.
Servant. That is what I said, but the—person—insists.
