誰要是被懷疑做壞事，那肯定是不會高興的。被懷疑做壞事的人肯定會“有麻煩”、并且“失寵”了，這種狀態可以用under a cloud 來表示。下面是一個人在講另外一個被逮捕的人，這人被指控和販毒有關：

The judge had to let him go because there wasn't enough evidence against him. But he's going around under a cloud because most people think he’s guilty.

法官由于沒有足夠的證據來定罪，所以只好放了他。但是，他到哪兒都受懷疑，因為大多數人都認為他是有罪的。

下面這個例子是一個人在飯館里對別人說的話：

See that man sitting at the table by himself? He's supposed to be a very smart lawyer, but he's been under a cloud ever since he was mixed up in a scandal involving a company that was run by a mobster.

看見那個桌子邊獨自坐著的人嗎？他本來是一個很能干的律師，但是他跟一個公司的丑聞有牽連，而那個公司是由流氓集團經營的。從那時起他一直被人懷疑。
