Jean Valjean is an ex-convict who spent 19 years in the galleys. He's inexpressively generous and kind and he has a true Christian heart. When Fantine died, he undertook the job as a 'father' for Cosette, the daughter of Fantine. Having never experienced love or care, his love for Cosette as a 'father' bloomed through the years.
