Read the excerpt from chapter 3 of The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde."You know I never approved of it,” pursued Utterson, ruthlessly disregarding the fresh topic."My will? Yes, certainly, I know that,” said the doctor, a trifle sharply. "You have told me so.”"Well, I tell you so again,” continued the lawyer. "I have been learning something of young Hyde.”The large handsome face of Dr. Jekyll grew pale to the very lips, and there came a blackness about his eyes. "I do not care to hear more,” said he. "This is a matter I thought we had agreed to drop.”"What I heard was abominable,” said Utterson."It can make no change. You do not understand my position,” returned the doctor, with a certain incoherency of manner. "I am painfully situated, Utterson; my position is a very strange—a very strange one. It is one of those affairs that cannot be mended by talking.”
