What story does Enfield tell when he and Utterson pass the door? What
does hearing the story cause Utterson to do?
Enfield tells to
Utterson a story related to a neglected building whose door makes him
shiver. Once, he was strollling across the city as always, when
suddlenly he saw a man hitting a girl he did not even know in front of
that door. Mr. Enfield and the girl's relatives stopped the man and
required him to pay £100 for the
damages caused. The man's ugliness was desproportionate, recalling
devil itself.The girl's father and Mr. Enfield went to the devil-man's
so he get the money and pay for his agression. However, this man, who
was called Mr. Hyde, comes back with cheque that had a different name
on, so they thought he was blackmailing the person tha actually wrote
the cheque. Utterson follows the story closely so he decides to
investigate.
2. After their meeting, what do Enfield and Utterson both suspect about the relationship between Jekyll and Hyde? what evidence does the text give for this suspicion?

Both Enfield and Utterson suspect that Jekyll may owe something to Hyde, and that is why the latter would have had the suspicious cheque. They both strongly believe that there is something wrong in the relationship that Jekyll and Hyde maintain. But, there are other theories that pop up while both men, Utterson and Enfield talk, on page 4, the latter states that maybe Hyde is blackmaling Jekyll fo some reason.
Good answer, Pepe...and the rest of the questions?
