While at Pemberley, I received two letters from Jane stating that Lydia has run off with Mr. Wickham! I became a mess all at once, crying, pleading, and finding support in Mr. Darcy. What he must think of my family know. Another weakness he can put on the chart of why not to marry the Bennets. We have no money, our family is not well brought up, we are not as educated as the rest of Britain, and our younger sister tend to elope with the worst of men! But how Darcy comforted me. he was patient, gentle, and strong all at once. The way his eyes pleaded with mine saying, "Everything will be alright, I will take care of it." Mr. Darcy has been misjudged by me, and I am starting to realize life is unbearable without him.

My dear Elizabeth, I have put all your poverty aside and now look to you for who you are. I am not the man I used to be. And do not worry for Lydia. I am expanding all my resources in order to locate her and Wickham before she does anything rash.
ReplyDeleteOh my dearest sister Elizabeth! I am so happy for you, yet I feel such a sorrow for the circumstances for which this joyous realization occurred... I am sorry to hear of how hard the news hit you; I am happy you were not at home when this happened. It would have surely been worst on you. I wish you luck in the relationship I see growing!
