| At a table she sat, and punched the button with the air of milady ringing for her carriage. |
|
| Milord and milady, I imagine, have chosen children instead of a guest. |
|
| It was evident that if milady had ordered it, so it must be. |
|
| While Milady won't take this snub lying down, both she and Rochefort show tonight just how ruthless they can be. |

|
| Besides, D'Artagnan from her own admission knew Milady culpable of treachery in matters more important, and could entertain no respect for her. |
|
| Milady put her charming blond head out at the window, and gave her orders to her maid. |
|
| Milady, during the passage had contrived to untie the cord which fastened her feet. |
|
| D'Artagnan fancied himself very cunning when advising Milady to renounce, by pardoning De Wardes, the furious projects she had formed. |
|
| He, however, darted not the less quickly toward Milady, yielding to that magnetic attraction which the loadstone exercises over iron. |
|
| Lord de Winter adopted the same tactics as Milady, thinking that as his sister-in-law employed them they must be the best. |
|
| The King is sitting this episode out in his bed, still sulking about last week's perceived betrayal by Milady, who now finds herself banished from court. |
|
| Milady had listened to all this menacing tirade with a smile of disdain on her lips, but rage in her heart. |
|
| Milady made no reply, but turning her beautiful head round upon her pillow, she burst into tears, and uttered heartbreaking sobs. |
|
| Milady, however, smiled in observing that she excelled the young woman by far in her high air and aristocratic bearing. |
|
| Milady uttered a deep, inward shriek, and retreated to a corner of the room like a panther which crouches for a spring. |
|
| The cavalier laughed aloud, which appeared to exasperate Milady still more. |
|
| Milady possessed that great art, so much studied by women, of looking through her long eyelashes without appearing to open the lids. |
|
| The baron knows, as well as myself, that Milady de Winter is a very guilty woman, and it is treating her very favorably to commute her punishment to transportation. |
|
| Athos availed himself of the permission, ascended the stairs with his lightest step, gained the landing, and through the open door perceived Milady putting on her hat. |
|
|
|
| Milady therefore continued her voyage, and on the very day that Planchet embarked at Portsmouth for France, the messenger of his Eminence entered the port in triumph. |
|
| A single look at Milady apprised him of all that was passing in her mind. |
|
| The perfidious deceiver was, as may plainly be perceived, already sacrificing, in intention, the poor girl in order to obtain Milady, willy-nilly. |
|
| The poor, senseless young man was not aware of the incoherence of his words, while Milady was reading with her lynx's eyes the very depths of his heart. |
|
| Milady looked at him for some time with an expression which the young man took for doubt, but which, however, was nothing but observation, or rather the wish to fascinate. |
|
| D'Artagnan took leave of Milady, and left the saloon the happiest of men. |
|
| And D'Artagnan presented to the cardinal the precious piece of paper which Athos had forced from Milady, and which he had given to D'Artagnan to serve him as a safeguard. |
|
| Milady for some time examined with increasing terror that pale face, framed with black hair and whiskers, the only expression of which was icy impassibility. |
|
| At this spot Milady had come out of the wood, and entered the carriage. |
|
| Milady therefore continued, coloring her narrations more and more. |
