There's a save monument as soon as you enter Auguste's Villa: Entrance. When ready, follow the path west and cutscene will play as you follow the path northwest. Once the cutscene ends, keep following the path until you reach the villa up north.
4

11
Head up the stairs for a cutscene where Auguste forces Francesca to choose between him and her son.
12
Defeat Francesca the Actress
Francesca has lost her mind and will attack you after the cutscene. We recommend stocking up on SP Recovery Items such as Inspiriting Plums since her Song of a Broken Soul will reduce SP on top of dealing damage.

We also recommend having one of your characters place debuff on her, particularly Accuracy Down, and Phys.Atk. Down to lower the damage of her attacks.
13
Once Francesca is defeated, she dies in Schwartz's arms and he vows to get revenge on Auguste, which also concludes the chapter.
