The Dowager Duchess grimaced at the familiar way they spoke to each other. Was there no decorum anymore? No sense of propriety, especially in the presence of their betters?

“Aunt Beatrice, surely there is something else that could be done,” Percy tried in vain. “With the proper sort of gown and a style to her tresses, surely Frances can win over His Grace without having to resort to anything untoward.”

“Don’t be foolish,” Beatrice snapped. “Quite frankly, there is nothing remarkable about the girl, at all. Certainly nothing that will turn my son’s head if he’s made up his mind. Forcing his hand is our only option, and it will not require any effort on the girl’s part at all. All she must do is wait in the garden while I send my son out. You, Percy, will discover them together and insist that they be married straight away. I’ve already completed the application for the special license, without the date of course, and we will dispatch it the moment their meeting is discovered. Then, my son will marry Frances and send a letter to Lord Honeyfield, releasing his daughter from the contract.”
