it's the day before the secret wedding !!!! Incredible, that EBB returned to the house of her tyrant father for about a week after she was already married.

And the practical side in me is wondering whether (and how, when and where) they consumated the marriage before. It seems nearly impossible in their situation.

the first of the last batch...for I intend to finish today.

Mr Kenyon comes again with the inquisition, but EBB is better at evading questions now

I would have loved to have been present when he got the news that they were married.
