Amber Forbes · Answer 1

b. Betrayal

Explanation:

Both the characters of Julius Ceaser and The Count of Monte Cristo were betrayed by their close friends. They were willing to do everything for them. While Ceaser was betrayed by his close friend Brutus in conspiracy with Cassius just before he was to be crowned king, Edmond Dantes was accused of treason by Fernando Mondego and Danglars against Napolean Bonaparte on his wedding day. Thus, both men got betrayed on the day that was supposed to be the most important days of their lives.
