The day following my run in with Elizabeth at my estate, my sister, Bingley, and I all traveled to Lambton. I desired to introduce my sister to the most amazing women I had ever met, and I believed Bingley would enjoy catching up with a past acquaintance. I know my sister is very shy, and most people think of her as a proud and rude woman, but Elizabeth seemed to understand immediately the extent of dear Georgiana’s personality. This made me appreciate Elizabeth even more, though I highly doubt we can ever have a normal relationship. I am also quite amazed at Bingley’s interaction with Elizabeth. He believed no one to be looking, but on several occasions I saw him inquiring with great interest to the health of the Bennet sisters, probably Jane in particular. This caught me off guard because I believed Bingley to have no real attachment to that woman. It is hard to believe that my judgment could have been so wrong.
I am very glad I could make the trip with you. It was great to see Lizzy again. I also noticed how Lizzy saw Georgiana. She instantly became friends with her. I had a great time with Lizzy. I was glad to hear that everybody was fine in the family. I hope we can make more trips like this soon, Darcy.
