"...the girl addressed a sublime look of supplication to him, to which he replied with a smile that any disinterested observer would have been astonished to see flowering on that icy face."
I LOVE HIM.

Now I understand how people 'back in the olden days' could survive without the internet, TV shows, and movies. They had Alexandre Dumas.

I'm just waiting for Edmond and Mercédès to meet again after 15+ years. 🥺

FINALLY remembered to answer this. So, the 'him' is the Count. And the girl is the daughter of his old, kind employer. The Count is going to reward both his old employer and the girl for being good to him and being honest, decent people (he not only punishes the guilty, but rewards the innocent <3).
😍😍😍That's sweet. Is it sort of a benevolent and fatherly vibe? And Dantes is the Count, right?
I just love when the tough, stoic older guy is hardened by the world but softened by a young person. There's something about a very sweet person that does that!
