       “I cannot believe Lady Olivia would have us in search of her person whilst to believe she was abducted from the estate for numerous days" said she Lady Emma most displeased.

        "I’m most glad she’d been found at the Northcliffe’s, I believe it is a grand idea she’s spending time with her betrothed our family fortune will double" said her most splendidly Governess Amelia clapping her hands.
