He looked as though he was in a fever, he spoke of the blood that cried for vengeance, the blood of the father murdered by his son, with the base motive of robbery!

His secret motive for it, that is, his almost morbid hatred of Stavrogin for the insult to his family four years before, he was for some reason ashamed to confess.

His immediate motive had been his passionate dread of an encounter between these excellent but unrefined old people and the Walshinghams, but now that end was secured, he could see how thwarted and exasperated they would be.
Удрал он не подумавши, с перепугу, лишь бы не видеть, как превосходные, но отнюдь не обученные тонкому обхождению старики встретились с Уолшингемами, — а теперь, когда бояться уже нечего, ему так ясно представляются их гнев и обида.

If he was in love with someone, he was very clever at hiding it; and he answered all Mildred's questions with frankness and apparently without suspicion that there was any motive in them.
