"I had lovers entertained me." "Not always, that's true." "Do it your husband?" "I told him often enough that I was not worth it." "What's your second question?" "Do you know why I let you talk about yourself?" "Nee." "And I'm not even in the relationship with your inspector." "Of things happen on both sides of a street, Mme Boursicault." "You do not see everything, but you can guess." "The third question, please." "Have you told me the whole truth?" "Everything I saw, or rather have not seen?" "And." "I told the whole truth." "Is that all?" "Voorlopig Though." "Tonight I can offer you coffee." "Why not?" "You too, to make up for it last night." "Not for me, thank you." "Resentment is kleingeestig, Mr Valentine." "And sometimes one good motive." "Even if all she suspects me, that was   It does not prove that I shot your inspector." "Commissioner, you is deeply shocked and disheartened man." "That's it." "It's true what you say, Mr. Valentin." "The past does not always explain the present, but it colors it."
