Emma, Volume 2, Chapter 8 - Part 2

March 4, 2024

The intrigue of the evening at the Coles continues to deepen, as Mrs. Weston comes to Emma with a new theory. Could Mr. Knightley be the one who gave Jane Fairfax the mystery pianoforte? Could he perhaps be interested in marrying her? The idea vexes Emma immediately - on behalf of her nephew, of course, who could lose his inheritance if Mr. Knightley married and had his own children. Emma is certainly not disturbed on her own behalf, absolutely not. Speculative matches are being made left and right, so let the thickening plot occupy your mind tonight and comfort you into blissful sleep.
