Count Morano is an associate of Montoni, and initially Montoni tries to trick Emily into marrying Count Morano in order to secure her financial future. Count Morano is enthusiastic about trying to court Emily right from the start, but Emily resists him due to her loyalty to Valancourt. Eventually, Montoni changes his mind about Count Morano, but Count Morano refuses to give up, even sneaking in at night to try to abduct Emily and getting into a duel with Montoni. Count Morano is yet another warning in the novel about the dangers of greed, as he becomes obsessed by his desire to possess Emily.

Quotes
“It is now useless, sir, for me to remonstrate upon the circumstances of which Signor Montoni informs me that he has written. I could have wished, at least, that the affair had been concluded with less precipitation, that I might have taught myself to subdue some prejudices, as the Signor calls them, which still linger in my heart. As it is, I submit. In point of prudence nothing certainly can be objected; but, though I submit, I have yet much to say on some other points of the subject, when I shall have the honour of seeing you. In the meantime I entreat you will take care of Theresa, for the sake of,
Sir,
Your affectionate niece,
EMILY ST. AUBERT.”
