               Caderousse wanted to get more money from Benedeto. The 200 francs he received each month from Benedeto were not enough. Caderousse visited Benedeto in his hotel room to ask him to get more money. But Benedeto did not give him anymore. Caderousse said to  Benedeto that he wanted to know where the Count of Monte Cristo keeps his  money and he wanted to know the way to get into his house. Benedetto told him what he wanted to know. But after that, Benedetto wrote a note to the count. The note told about that an enemy would break into the count’s house this night. After Dantes read the note from Benedeto, he prepared to catch the thief.  Then he heard a footstep on the balcony, Dantes changed into his priest’s outfit.  When Caderousse had been trying to break into the desk, he looked up and startled. Caderousse said to the priest that he wanted the priest gave him the diamond for live as he want.  The priest asked to him that the diamond was not enough for him, either. And he wanted Caderousse told him everything, started with how Caderousse learned the floor plan of this house.  Caderousse began to tell Dantes about Benedetto that young criminal had fooled everyone into thinking he was the rich young Andrea Cavalcanti and he got money from Benedeto. And Benedeto would marry Eugenie.  Caderousse did not allow him to get away everything that Caderousse want. Suddenly Caderousse pulled out a knife and thrust it at Dantes. But  Dantes was wearing a metal vest under his priest’s robe. Dantes grabbed hold of Caderousse’s arm and twisted it. Dantes said to Caderousse to write a note to Danglars that everything he told to Dantes. Then, Caderousse wrote a note to Danglars, told all about Benedetto and what he’d been up to.  After he had finished, Dantes took the note and Caderousse went out the window and climbed to the ground. Caderousse saw Benedeto and he said to Dantes that  let him add something to that note. I wanted to be sure that Danglars knows who stabbed him. Dantes said  that would call a doctor for him. Caderousse thought that was too late for him and why did not Dantes stop Benedetto from stabbing him. And Dante’s answer was God gave him good health, work, and good friends but he threw everything away. God sent him diamond but he became a murderer, and  If he were truly sorry for what he had done, Dantes would have helped him. And Dantes asked question to Dantes that he did not recognize him, Dantes told him that he was Edmond Dantes, one of Caderousse’s oldest friends, Caderousse startled to hear about that.  “Forgive me” ,The last word that Caderousse said.
