Maximilien Morrel
Haydee is the Count’s “slave,” whom he originally purchased in Constantinople because he knew she was the daughter of the Ali Pasha (who once knew Fernand). Haydee is devoted to the Count for saving her from imprisonment and torture. She lives a quiet life in the Count’s home on the Champs-Elysées, and the Count allows her to get to know Albert, to whom she tells her sad story. Albert recognizes that his father, Fernand, has betrayed and murdered Haydee’s father, the Ali Pasha, and this begins a chain of events leading to Fernand’s suicide and the social ruin of the Morcerf family. Haydee and the Count later have a romantic relationship when the Count recognizes he has loved Haydee for years.

Oh, my lord, how good and great you are ... How fortunate I am to belong to you!
