THE COUNT OF MONTE CRISTO - CHAPTERS 80-82
Villefort's world is crumbling around him. Death is surrounding him, and his daughter is accused by the doctor. Villefort assumes he is the intended victim. Is his guilty conscience pricking him? He convinces the doctor to keep his thoughts to himself. The domestic staff quit and as they exit, one person's eyes fill with tears while another smiles in satisfaction.
From there we catch up with Danglars and Caderousse thanks to Andrea Cavalcanti/Benedetto. He makes his desires known to Danglars regarding his daughter, and in turn Caderousse makes his desires known to Cavalcanti. Caderousse's nature is revealed more to us as every idea and plan he has terrifies Cavalcanti. Then Cavalcanti reveals that he believes the count is his father, yet Caderousse convinces him to give him a map of the count's house to burglar. But who is the person who warns the count ahead of time?
In the process of the burglary we learn some interesting things! After all, Abbe Busoni appears and the confessions roll off the lips of Caderousse easily. Now the connection of Benedetto and Caderousse is explained. A confession is written as to whom Benedetto really is. Caderousse is let go, but on his way over the wall he is murdered. Any ideas as to whom his murderer is?
