Minutes: 45

Pages: 70

Summary: The following day Danglars visits Monte Cristo and presses for more information about Andrea Cavalcanti. He admits that he would very much like his daughter to marry this young man, who is far richer than Albert de Morcerf. Danglars confides in Monte Cristo that the Count de Morcerf was not originally a nobleman but used to be a poor fisherman named Fernand Mondego, who suddenly gained considerable wealth under mysterious circumstances. Monte Cristo pretends to recall that he has once heard of a Fernand Mondego in connection with the Ali Pacha, (his Greek servants betrayed father) affair in Greece. Danglars admits that he too has heard vague stirrings about this connection. And, in what will no doubt lead to some form of revenge, he directs Danglers to the site of the incident.

Reflection: Like i said this is probably some kind of revenge
