A Spy At Pemberley
“'I think, sir, that you and Miss Bingley must leave Pemberley at once. When I speak to Mr Darcy I can assure you he will not be pleased. Making an enemy of him will be something you will both regret.' She didn't linger to hear his response. Fitzwilliam must hear of this latest threat. Her heart was pounding and she was relieved to return to the sanctuary of her own abode. Once inside she leaned against the wall for a few moments to recover her equilibrium.
How had it come to this? Was it po...ssible that the elopement had just been a ploy to get Charles to invite the couple to Pemberley? Why would the wretched woman have given Mrs Hurst the route she intended to take unless she wished to be found by her brother?
Fitzwilliam would be able to make sense of this. The fact that they had parted on bad terms an hour or so ago made no difference. She must speak to him immediately. His study was empty. She sent for Peterson and the butler told her that her husband had gone out.MoreLess
