Book 3: The House on Rue Plumet, Chapter 2 de 365 · 4 min para leer el chapter
In Chapter 2, Jean Valjean gives Cosette comfortable rooms while choosing bare quarters for himself, and he maintains a secluded household through charity, careful routines, and concealed entrances. His National Guard service helps disguise his identity, but the closing remark questions his decision to leave the garden untended.
