OM DENNE EPISODE
In The Count of Monte Cristo, Albert reflects on the remarkable impression his guest has left upon the Morcerf household.
He recalls how warmly his father received Monte Cristo and how naturally the two men conversed before finding his mother lost in quiet contemplation. Believing she has fallen asleep, Albert slips away, convinced that anyone capable of affecting her so deeply must be extraordinary. Even in the stables, Monte Cristo’s magnificent carriage gives him one more reason to admire—and envy—his visitor.
Albert leaves the day more certain than ever that the Count of Monte Cristo is unlike any man he has known.
