Dec. 7: The Count of Monte Cristo

Minutes: 45

Pages: 70

Summary: Monte Cristo proceeds his plan by insisting that the younger man must play the part of Bartolomeo Cavalcanti’s son, Andrea Cavalcanti, reunited with his father by Monte Cristo. After giving the two men false identity documents, new wardrobes, and other necessities for their disguise, Monte Cristo invites them to a dinner party he is throwing the following Saturday.At a party held at his the Count's home, Monte Cristo introduces the two impostors as Major Bartolomeo Cavalcanti and his son, Andrea. Much as Monte Cristo predicts, the fabulously wealthy Italian prince and his son pique Danglars’s curiosity, especially when Monte Cristo casually mentions to Danglars that Andrea is determined to find a wife in Paris.

Reflection: I am starting to perceive his intentions
