What would happen if Mr Darcy had failed to give Elizabeth Bennet the letter explaining his actions after his disastrous proposal at Rosings?
Shocked by Mr Darcy’s desire to marry her, and disgusted by his interference between Jane and Mr Bingley, Elizabeth leaves Kent for London the very next morning after his proposal. There, she hopes to comfort Jane, and enjoy spending time with the charming and newly single George Wickham who has also come to London to recover from the disappointment of ending his betrothal to Mary King.
Mr Darcy had been too shocked to respond to Elizabeth’s accusations during his proposal, but he is determined to clear his name. He sits up all night to write a letter explaining his actions regarding his treatment of Jane and Wickham, only to find that Elizabeth has already left for London. Knowing it is impossible for a gentleman to send a letter to a lady he is not engaged to without compromising her reputation, his only hope is that he will see her when he returns to his townhouse in London. Perhaps if they encounter one another enough, Elizabeth will see a new side to him and reconsider her opinion. And maybe he will have a chance to clear his name.
So he is horrified when he arrives in London and sees that Elizabeth and Wickham have resumed their friendship, and seem closer than ever. Has he left it too late? Is he about to lose the woman he loves to the man he despises most in the world; a man he knows to be utterly unworthy of her?
Elizabeth is embarrassed to see Darcy in London so soon after rejecting him. But London’s society is small, and the two are repeatedly thrown together. Seeing Darcy with his sister and friends opens her eyes to the possibility that maybe she has misjudged him after all. And spending so much time with both Darcy and Wickham makes her wonder if perhaps she has been too hasty in her judgement of both men’s characters.
Can the pair overcome their own pride and prejudice and find happiness together after all? Or will misunderstandings and the dishonourable intentions of others succeed in driving them apart?
