Mr. Darcy's Great Escape
“Maddox opened the trunk readied for him, he nearly screamed as his daughter popped out of her hiding spot, “Papa!”
“Emily!” he said, staggering back. “You scared me half to death.” But she continued smiling serenely at him. “I suppose it was very cute. But a trunk is not a good place for a child.”
When he tried to lift her out, she grabbed onto the handle. “No! I want to go with you!”
“Darling,” he said, turning her around in his arms so she was facing him and not the trunk, “you wo...uld not want to come on this trip. It’s going to be very long and mostly boring, and you certainly wouldn’t want to spend it in a smelly trunk, would you?” He kissed her on the cheek and set her down.

Given Bingley’s stories, it did not seem out of the realm of possibility.MoreLess
