Hadji Murad / Хаджи-Мурат. Книга для чтения на английском языке

The aide-de-camp informed the prince that the general, having heard of Hadji Murad’s arrival, was highly displeased that this had not been reported to him, and required Hadji Murad to be brought to him without delay. Vorontsov replied that the general’s command should be obeyed, and through the interpreter informed Hadji Murad of these orders and asked him to go to Meller with him.

When Marya Vasilevna heard what the aide-decamp had come about, she at once understood that unpleasantness might arise between her husband and the general, and in spite of all her husband’s attempts to dissuade her, decided to go with him and Hadji Murad.

“Vous feriez bien mieux de rester – c’est mon affaire, non pas la vôtre… .”[15 - Vous feriez bien mieux de rester – c’est mon affaire, non pas la vôtre… – You’d better stay – it’s my business, not yours…]

“Vous ne pouvez pas m’empecher d’aller voir madame la générale!”[16 - Vous ne pouvez pas m’empecher d’aller voir madame la générale! – You can not prevent me from going to see Madam General!]
