I entered the saloon at my estate to see how the lunch between Elizabeth, my sister, and the rest of my female acquaintances was going. I noticed that Georgiana and Elizabeth had not had time to talk yet, and I tried to create a conversation between the two. I noticed Miss Bingley watching me intently with a scowl on her face, and already knowing of her intense attraction towards me, I expected nothing less than what came out of her mouth. It caught me off guard regardless. She tried to bring attention to Lizzy’s regard for Mr. Wickham during our winter at Hertfordshire. I know that she knows nothing of my sister’s involvement with him, but it must have hurt dear Georgiana nonetheless. Lizzy answered politely and attempted to move the conversation onward, and I was even more awed by Lizzy trying to do that for my sister. Even if it never goes anywhere I still maintain a deep regard for Elizabeth Bennet.
