gentleman

"A lot of people didn't like that gentleman that you're talking about. Whether you like him or didn't like him, things happen."

“I will check every café and gentlemen’s club in Saint Petersburg! Of course, that could take hours. . . .”

They were all from his gentlemen’s club or from various banks, except for one thin, stained envelope with no return address but which bore many colorful postmarks and exotic stamps from distant lands.

“He is an older gentleman, very distinguished and charming, if I do say so. Perhaps your husband knew him? I expect they would have been about the same age.”

“If the gentleman files a complaint about the noise, we may end up gaining the attention of a constable after all, though not in the way I intended.”
