In Letter 107, Roux Azolan reports to the Vicomte de Valmont on Mme de Tourvel’s distress, religious observance, and correspondence, using information from Mlle Julie. He sends an intercepted letter intended for her husband, promises access to more letters, and resists entering her service because he considers its livery beneath his position.
What happens

- Mme de Tourvel attends Mass at the Feuillants but cannot confess because her confessor is away.

- Azolan defends his diligence and spending, suggests a gift for Julie, and objects to wearing a lady’s servant’s livery.
