Lucie was still worried
These words had a happy effect on the crowdDiamond Grinding Wheel. Those who had shouted for his death now shouted for his life. Then Monsieur Gabelle and Dr Manette spoke for Charles Darnay. The Doctor spoke well and clearly, and was very popular with the crowd. When he had finished, the judges decided that the prisoner should be set free, and the crowd shouted their agreement loudly. Soon they were carrying Darnay in a chair through the streets of Paris to Dr Manette's house. Lucie was waiting there, and when she ran out and fell into the arms of her husband, the men and women in the crowd kissed one another and danced for happiness Darnay and Lucie were together again, safe and happy.
'I told you that I would save him, 'said Lucie's father proudly. 'Well, I have saved him, and you must not worry now. '
But Lucie was still worried. So many innocent men and women had died,Compact fluorescent lamp, for no reason, and every day brought more deaths. A shadow of fear and hate lay over France, and no one knew what dangers the next day would bring.

It was not possible to leave Paris at once, as Charles did not have the necessary papersDiamond Grinding Wheel. They must live quietly, and hope to leave as soon as they could.
But that night, when Dr Manette#x, Charles and Lucie were sitting together, they heard a loud knock at the door.
'What can this be? 'said Lucie, trembling. 'Hide Charles！ Save him！'
'My *****, 'said the Doctor, 'I have saved him. He is a free man！'
But when he opened the door, four rough men pushed their way into the room.
'The Citizen Evrémonde, where is he? He is again the prisoner of the people. '
'I am here, 'said Darnay. 'But why am I again a prisoner? '
'You are accused by citizens of Saint Antoine. '
Dr Manette had said nothing. He seemed to be made of stone, but suddenly he spoke.
'Will you tell me who has accused my son－in－law? '
'I shouldn't tell you this, 'said one of the men, 'but Citizen EvrémondeDiamond Grinding Wheel, called Darnay, is accused by Monsieur and Madame Defarge, and by one other person. '
'What other? '
'You will hear that tomorrow,#x 'replied the man.
