Although it appears the Count knows Albert's parents, he makes no mention of knowing them. Yet, you cant help but feel he's hiding something. Albert doesnt want to think it, but he feels that his mother might have known the Count and is slightly suspicious of him. While his mother (Mercédès de Morcerf) and Eugénie head out for some shopping, Albert and his friend, upon request, head over to the Count's place (since he had bought a place in Paris) and overwhelmed by the amount of money that must have been dumped into it.
