If
it
were
otherwise
--
if
he
treated
me
diplomatically
--
that
is
to
say
,
like
a
man
who
wishes
,
by
some
means
or
other
,
to
obtain
a
footing
in
the
house
,
so
that
he
may
ultimately
gain
the
power
of
dictating
to
its
occupants
--
he
would
,
if
it
had
been
but
once
,
have
honored
me
with
the
smile
which
you
extol
so
loudly
;
but
no
,
he
saw
that
I
was
unhappy
,
he
understood
that
I
could
be
of
no
use
to
him
,
and
therefore
paid
no
attention
to
me
whatever
.
Who
knows
but
that
,
in
order
to
please
Madame
de
Villefort
and
my
father
,
he
may
not
persecute
me
by
every
means
in
his
power
?
It
is
not
just
that
he
should
despise
me
so
,
without
any
reason
.
Ah
,
forgive
me
,
"
said
Valentine
,
perceiving
the
effect
which
her
words
were
producing
on
Maximilian
:
"
I
have
done
wrong
,
for
I
have
given
utterance
to
thoughts
concerning
that
man
which
I
did
not
even
know
existed
in
my
heart
.
I
do
not
deny
the
influence
of
which
you
speak
,
or
that
I
have
not
myself
experienced
it
,
but
with
me
it
has
been
productive
of
evil
rather
than
good
.
"
"
Well
,
Valentine
,
"
said
Morrel
with
a
sigh
,
"
we
will
not
discuss
the
matter
further
.
I
will
not
make
a
confidant
of
him
.

"
Alas
,
"
said
Valentine
,
"
I
see
that
I
have
given
you
pain
.
I
can
only
say
how
sincerely
I
ask
pardon
for
having
griefed
you
.
But
,
indeed
,
I
am
not
prejudiced
beyond
the
power
of
conviction
.
Tell
me
what
this
Count
of
Monte
Cristo
has
done
for
you
.
"
"
I
own
that
your
question
embarrasses
me
,
Valentine
,
for
I
can
not
say
that
the
count
has
rendered
me
any
ostensible
service
.
Still
,
as
I
have
already
told
you
I
have
an
instinctive
affection
for
him
,
the
source
of
which
I
can
not
explain
to
you
.
Has
the
sun
done
anything
for
me
?
No
;
he
warms
me
with
his
rays
,
and
it
is
by
his
light
that
I
see
you
--
nothing
more
.
Has
such
and
such
a
perfume
done
anything
for
me
?
No
;
its
odor
charms
one
of
my
senses
--
that
is
all
I
can
say
when
I
am
asked
why
I
praise
it
.
My
friendship
for
him
is
as
strange
and
unaccountable
as
his
for
me
.
A
secret
voice
seems
to
whisper
to
me
that
there
must
be
something
more
than
chance
in
this
unexpected
reciprocity
of
friendship
.
In
his
most
simple
actions
,
as
well
as
in
his
most
secret
thoughts
,
I
find
a
relation
to
my
own
.
You
will
perhaps
smile
at
me
when
I
tell
you
that
,
ever
since
I
have
known
this
man
,
I
have
involuntarily
entertained
the
idea
that
all
the
good
fortune
which
has
befallen
me
originated
from
him
.
However
,
I
have
managed
to
live
thirty
years
without
this
protection
,
you
will
say
;
but
I
will
endeavor
a
little
to
illustrate
my
meaning
.
He
invited
me
to
dine
with
him
on
Saturday
,
which
was
a
very
natural
thing
for
him
to
do
.
Well
,
what
have
I
learned
since
?
That
your
mother
and
M.
de
Villefort
are
both
coming
to
this
dinner
.
I
shall
meet
them
there
,
and
who
knows
what
future
advantages
may
result
from
the
interview
?
This
may
appear
to
you
to
be
no
unusual
combination
of
circumstances
;
nevertheless
,
I
perceive
some
hidden
plot
in
the
arrangement
--
something
,
in
fact
,
more
than
is
apparent
on
a
casual
view
of
the
subject
.
I
believe
that
this
singular
man
,
who
appears
to
fathom
the
motives
of
every
one
,
has
purposely
arranged
for
me
to
meet
M.
and
Madame
de
Villefort
,
and
sometimes
,
I
confess
,
I
have
gone
so
far
as
to
try
to
read
in
his
eyes
whether
he
was
in
possession
of
the
secret
of
our
love
.
"
"
My
good
friend
,
"
said
Valentine
,
"
I
should
take
you
for
a
visionary
,
and
should
tremble
for
your
reason
,
if
I
were
always
to
hear
you
talk
in
a
strain
similar
to
this
.
Is
it
possible
that
you
can
see
anything
more
than
the
merest
chance
in
this
meeting
?
Pray
reflect
a
little
.

My
father
,
who
never
goes
out
,
has
several
times
been
on
the
point
of
refusing
this
invitation
;
Madame
de
Villefort
,
on
the
contrary
,
is
burning
with
the
desire
of
seeing
this
extraordinary
nabob
in
his
own
house
,
therefore
,
she
has
with
great
difficulty
prevailed
on
my
father
to
accompany
her
.
No
,
no
;
it
is
as
I
have
said
,
Maximilian
--
there
is
no
one
in
the
world
of
whom
I
can
ask
help
but
yourself
and
my
grandfather
,
who
is
little
better
than
a
corpse
.
"
"
I
see
that
you
are
right
,
logically
speaking
,
"
said
Maximilian
;
"
but
the
gentle
voice
which
usually
has
such
power
over
me
fails
to
convince
me
today
.
"
"
I
feel
the
same
as
regards
yourself
.
"
said
Valentine
;
"
and
I
own
that
,
if
you
have
no
stronger
proof
to
give
me
"
