The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from The Count of Monte Cristo by Alexandre Dumas: when the sound of the bell rang sharp and loud. The valet
opened the door, and Villefort heard some one speak his
name.
"Who could know that I was here already?" said the young
man. The valet entered.
"Well," said Villefort, "what is it? -- Who rang? -- Who
asked for me?"
"A stranger who will not send in his name."
"A stranger who will not send in his name! What can he want
with me?"
"He wishes to speak to you."
