"You l-love me?"
"Absolutely and irrevocably."
"Oh, Elizabeth! I have been so worried you would never love me."
"You would have known sooner if you have not been evading me."
"What do you need to talk about urgently?"
"I told you, silly man. I love you. I wanted you to know before we marry."
"So you were not planning to break the engagement…"
"What if I did?"
"No! You cannot! You said you love me irrevocably. Besides, we do not want to be the cause of four broken hearts."
"Four?"
"Yes. Mine. Yours. Georgiana's. And your mother's."
