My father loved Mr Wickham as a son.
:20:04
He left him a generous living.
But upon my father's death,
:20:08
Mr Wickham announced
he had no intention of taking orders.
:20:13
He demanded the value of the living,
which he'd gambled away within weeks.
:20:20
He then wrote,
demanding more money, which I refused.
:20:23
After which,
he severed all acquaintance.
:20:27
He came back to see us last summer, and
declared passionate love for my sister,
:20:31
whom he tried to persuade
to elope with him.
:20:35
She is to inherit £30,000.
:20:39
When it was made clear he would never
receive a penny of it, he disappeared.
:20:44
I will not attempt to convey the depth
of Georgiana's despair.
:20:48
She was 15 years old.
:20:53
As to the other matter,
of your sister and Mr Bingley,
:20:56
though the motives which governed me
may appear insufficient,
:21:00
they were in the service of a friend.
:21:03
Lizzie.
:21:08
Are you all right?
:21:10
I hardly know.
:21:21
Lizzie. How fortunate you have arrived.
:21:24
Your aunt and uncle are here
to deliver Jane from London.
:21:28
- How is Jane?
- She's in the drawing room.
:21:34
I'm quite over him. If he passed me
in the street, I'd hardly notice.
:21:40
London is so diverting. It's true.
:21:45
There's so much to entertain.
:21:53
What news from Kent?
:21:57
Nothing.
