An
ironical
smile
passed
over
Albert
's
lips
.
Mercedes
saw
it
and
with
the
double
instinct
of
woman
and
mother
guessed
all
;
but
as
she
was
prudent
and
strong-minded
she
concealed
both
her
sorrows
and
her
fears
.
Albert
was
silent
;
an
instant
after
,
the
countess
resumed
:
"
You
came
to
inquire
after
my
health
;
I
will
candidly
acknowledge
that
I
am
not
well
.
You
should
install
yourself
here
,
and
cheer
my
solitude
.
I
do
not
wish
to
be
left
alone
.
"
"
Mother
,
"
said
the
young
man
,
"
you
know
how
gladly
I
would
obey
your
wish
,
but
an
urgent
and
important
affair
obliges
me
to
leave
you
for
the
whole
evening
.
"

"
Well
,
"
replied
Mercedes
,
sighing
,
"
go
,
Albert
;
I
will
not
make
you
a
slave
to
your
filial
piety
.
"
Albert
pretended
he
did
not
hear
,
bowed
to
his
mother
,
and
quitted
her
.
Scarcely
had
he
shut
her
door
,
when
Mercedes
called
a
confidential
servant
,
and
ordered
him
to
follow
Albert
wherever
he
should
go
that
evening
,
and
to
come
and
tell
her
immediately
what
he
observed
.
Then
she
rang
for
her
lady
's
maid
,
and
,
weak
as
she
was
,
she
dressed
,
in
order
to
be
ready
for
whatever
might
happen
.
The
footman
's
mission
was
an
easy
one
.
Albert
went
to
his
room
,
and
dressed
with
unusual
care
.
At
ten
minutes
to
eight
Beauchamp
arrived
;
he
had
seen
Chateau
--
Renaud
,
who
had
promised
to
be
in
the
orchestra
before
the
curtain
was
raised
.
Both
got
into
Albert
's
coupe
;
and
,
as
the
young
man
had
no
reason
to
conceal
where
he
was
going
,
he
called
aloud
,
"
To
the
opera
.
"
In
his
impatience
he
arrived
before
the
beginning
of
the
performance
.
Chateau
--
Renaud
was
at
his
post
;
apprised
by
Beauchamp
of
the
circumstances
,
he
required
no
explanation
from
Albert
.
The
conduct
of
the
son
in
seeking
to
avenge
his
father
was
so
natural
that
Chateau
--
Renaud
did
not
seek
to
dissuade
him
,
and
was
content
with
renewing
his
assurances
of
devotion
.
Debray
was
not
yet
come
,
but
Albert
knew
that
he
seldom
lost
a
scene
at
the
opera
.
Albert
wandered
about
the
theatre
until
the
curtain
was
drawn
up
.
He
hoped
to
meet
with
M.
de
Monte
Cristo
either
in
the
lobby
or
on
the
stairs
.
The
bell
summoned
him
to
his
seat
,
and
he
entered
the
orchestra
with
Chateau
--
Renaud
and
Beauchamp
.
But
his
eyes
scarcely
quitted
the
box
between
the
columns
,
which
remained
obstinately
closed
during
the
whole
of
the
first
act
.
At
last
,
as
Albert
was
looking
at
his
watch
for
about
the
hundredth
time
,
at
the
beginning
of
the
second
act
the
door
opened
,
and
Monte
Cristo
entered
,
dressed
in
black
,
and
,
leaning
over
the
front
of
the
box
,
looked
around
the
pit
.
Morrel
followed
him
,
and
looked
also
for
his
sister
and
brother
inlaw
;
he
soon
discovered
them
in
another
box
,
and
kissed
his
hand
to
them
.
The
count
,
in
his
survey
of
the
pit
,
encountered
a
pale
face
and
threatening
eyes
,
which
evidently
sought
to
gain
his
attention
.
He
recognized
Albert
,
but
thought
it
better
not
to
notice
him
,
as
he
looked
so
angry
and
discomposed
.
Without
communicating
his
thoughts
to
his
companion
,
he
sat
down
,
drew
out
his
opera-glass
,
and
looked
another
way
.
Although
apparently
not
noticing
Albert
,
he
did
not
,
however
,
lose
sight
of
him
,
and
when
the
curtain
fell
at
the
end
of
the
second
act
,
he
saw
him
leave
the
orchestra
with
his
two
friends
.
Then
his
head
was
seen
passing
at
the
back
of
the
boxes
,
and
the
count
knew
that
the
approaching
storm
was
intended
to
fall
on
him
.
He
was
at
the
moment
conversing
cheerfully
with
Morrel
,
but
he
was
well
prepared
for
what
might
happen
.
The
door
opened
,
and
Monte
Cristo
,
turning
round
,
saw
Albert
,
pale
and
trembling
,
followed
by
Beauchamp
and
Chateau
--
Renaud
.

"
Well
,
"
cried
he
,
with
that
benevolent
politeness
which
distinguished
his
salutation
from
the
common
civilities
of
the
world
,
"
my
cavalier
has
attained
his
object
.
Good-evening
,
M.
de
Morcerf
.
"
The
countenance
of
this
man
,
who
possessed
such
extraordinary
control
over
his
feelings
,
expressed
the
most
perfect
cordiality
.
Morrel
only
then
recollected
the
letter
he
had
received
from
the
viscount
,
in
which
,
without
assigning
any
reason
,
he
begged
him
to
go
to
the
opera
,
but
he
understood
that
something
terrible
was
brooding
.
"
We
are
not
come
here
,
sir
,
to
exchange
hypocritical
expressions
of
politeness
,
or
false
professions
of
friendship
,
"
said
Albert
,
"
but
to
demand
an
explanation
.
"
The
young
man
's
trembling
voice
was
scarcely
audible
.
"
An
explanation
at
the
opera
?
"
said
the
count
,
with
that
calm
tone
and
penetrating
eye
which
characterize
the
man
who
knows
his
cause
is
good
.
"
Little
acquainted
as
I
am
with
the
habits
of
Parisians
,
I
should
not
have
thought
this
the
place
for
such
a
demand
.
"
"
Still
,
if
people
will
shut
themselves
up
,
"
said
Albert
,
"
and
can
not
be
seen
because
they
are
bathing
,
dining
,
or
asleep
,
we
must
avail
ourselves
of
the
opportunity
whenever
they
are
to
be
seen
.
"
