Ave a taste of that pie myself, it smelt so good, but I waited.
Theodore woke at nine o'clock. He
struggled like a fool, but he still appeared half dazed. No doubt he

me what he had done with the bracelet. He shook his head furiously, and
I left the pie, the cognac and the coffee on the table
before
him and went into the antechamber, closing the office door behind me,
and leaving him to meditate on his treachery. What I wanted to avoid
