Translation examples

solapadamente

On several occasions during the months they spent together, Ferguson found himself alone in the apartment while Albert was out on an errand somewhere in the neighborhood, which meant he could have gone into the study and pulled out the manuscript from the drawer it was hiding in, but Ferguson never did that because he didn’t want to be the kind of person who did those sorts of things, who betrayed the trust of others and broke promises and acted underhandedly when no one was watching, for taking a look at Albert’s manuscript would have been just as bad as stealing it or burning it, an act of such repugnant disloyalty that it would have been unforgivable.
A lo largo de los meses que pasaron juntos, Ferguson se encontró en varias ocasiones solo en el apartamento cuando Albert salía a algún recado por el barrio, lo que significaba que podría haber entrado en el estudio para sacar el manuscrito del cajón en que estuviera escondido, pero no lo hizo porque no quería convertirse en el tipo de persona que hacía esas cosas, que traicionaba la confianza de los demás y rompía promesas y actuaba solapadamente cuando nadie miraba, porque haber echado una ojeada al manuscrito de Albert habría sido igual que robarlo o quemarlo, un acto de deslealtad tan repugnante que no habría tenido perdón.
