The count of Monte Cristo
There are many subplots involving The Count of Monte Cristo's adversaries. The first one started out in Rome where the count met two young men, Albert de Morcerf and Franz d'Epinay. The Count became a great friend to the two young men and even saved Albert's life when the "Italian bandit," Luigi Vampa, captured him. Luckily Vampa was a loyal friend to the count and obeyed his command to release Albert. Albert eventually introduced the count to Paris society and to his many friends. The next subplot was when The Count of Monte Cristo bought the house in Auteuil. His servant Bertuccio had a history with that house that involved Monsieur de Villefort. He later told that story to the count and introduced Benedetto, which later became Andrea Cavalcanti. Benedetto was the son of Villefort and Madame Danglars, which was presumed dead and was burried and left to die if Bertuccio did not dig the baby up. Benedetto later led a life of crime and left Bertuccio, who raised him. The next subplot was when Benedetto was introduced to the Count of Monte Cristo as Andrea Cavalcanti. He took on this role and was given a fake father. Andrea then became the good friend of the count's, mainly because the count was to supply him with a great amount of
wealth. The next subplot was when the count created the false telegram that "King Don Carlos escaped the vigilance excercised over him in Bourges and has returned to Spain across the Catalonian frontier." This caused many people to sell their Spanish bonds, including Baron Danglars, and to lose a lot of money. The next subplot is when The Count of Monte Cristo invited all of his "friends" to the country house he bought in Auteuil. This house haunted two guests, Monsieur de Villefort and Madame Danglars because this was the house which Madame Danglars gave birth to Benedetto and where Villefort barried him. The count showed the guests the garden which the baby was buried. Then he told everyone a false story that he discovered a box which contained a skeleton of a baby, but Villefort knew that was a lie because he later went back to check on the box after he was stabbed by Bertuccio, which was mentioned in Bertuccio's story. He later told Madame Danglars what he knew and that arroused suspicion towards The Count of Monte Cristo. The next subplot was when members of the Villefort family started dying. The first one to die was Monsieur de Saint-Meran, Villefort's father-in-law. The next was Madame de Saint-Meran, Villefort's mother-in-law. A doctor later discovered that they were poisoned and later Barrois, Monsieur Noirtier's servant, was poisoned. The next subplot was when Andrea was later suprised when Caderousse went up to Andrea just as he was going home after the dinner at the count's country house. Caderousse later agreed that he would never reveal Andrea's true identity to the Paris society for a moderate sum each month which Andrea was forced to pay him. Both of them later met up with each other where Caderousse requested more money each month when Andrea gave him the idea to rob The Count of Monte Cristo. Caderousse decided to break into the count's
