Blanca+and+Jean+de+Satigny

Jean de Satigny is a very dishonest character. Throughout the book he acted like he was a very wealthy man and money was never an object. However, several times in this chapter, it mentions that Jean was now apart of a new economic position. He is basically a gold digger. He also spent alot of the inheritance on cocaine and opium which show even more of how he was basically a messed up person. Furthermore, he went to the casino every night and constantly lost alot of Blanca's money.

I thought it was interesting how Blanca demonstrated very similar behavior to Clara when she was pregnant. They both had alot of anxiety and imagination when they were pregnant.
