אודות פרק זה
In The Count of Monte Cristo, Albert returns to find Mercédès alone in her dimly lit boudoir after Monte Cristo’s visit.
The room is heavy with the fragrance of roses, tuberoses, and orange blossoms, while smelling salts rest nearby. Concerned by her lingering pallor, Albert has the flowers removed, believing their perfume has made her ill. Mercédès quietly questions him about his father’s reaction before silence settles over the room.
A son’s concern is met with answers that leave far more unsaid than spoken.
