Finally, it was time for Gregory and his friends to go back to school. Matthew felt a huge sense of relief as he stood there watching the carriage pull away. He put his arm around Helen’s shoulders and pulled her close. “I just hope that once he gets back to school he’ll stay out of trouble, but that’s probably wishful thinking. Gregory is out of control and at the rate he’s going, he’ll end up in serious trouble. Helen, you’re an amazing woman to put up with Gregory and his friends. You’ve handled everything that’s happened this past summer extremely well. Most women would have run screaming back to their families. Thank you for being so supportive.”

Helen looked up at him. “Matthew, that’s what marriage is all about, standing beside each other through the good times and the bad. I care about you tremendously, and you’ve become my best friend. I have no regrets about marrying you. I’m sure that if the tables were turned you would do the same thing for me.”

Feeling immense love for her, Matthew had to bite his tongue to keep from telling her, since he still felt she wasn’t ready to hear it. While she did seem more open and receptive, he didn’t want to do anything to cause her to withdraw from him.

Matthew looked down at her and asked, “Are you looking forward to our trip to Plymouth tomorrow? Are you sure we should try taking the girls without any servants? I know that they’re much better behaved, but it’s still going to be quite a bit of work for us.”

“Oh, we’ll be fine. Christina and Catherine are so excited about the trip, I know they’ll behave themselves, so quit worrying. It’ll be fun. Well, I’m going upstairs. I think I’ll catch up on my correspondence. I’ll see you at luncheon.”

The next morning, they left shortly after eight o’clock, since it would take at least three hours to get to Plymouth. The trip was fun, and both Christina and Catherine were on their best behavior. Matthew enjoyed watching Helen entertain the girls as they traveled along the road. She truly had a knack for it, and seeing her with his daughters just made him love her even more than he already did.

Before he realized it, they had reached Plymouth shortly after eleven o’clock, in plenty of time for luncheon. They stopped at the coaching inn, and Matthew paid for a suite so that Christina and Catherine would have their own room. Once they were unpacked, they went downstairs to the private dining parlor for luncheon.

Luncheon was a delightful experience, and Matthew could tell that Christina and Catherine were thrilled by it all. Since they had never eaten out before, they were on their best behavior. He hoped Helen would be able to handle them. It was actually exciting to be on a trip like this with just Helen and the girls.

After luncheon, Matthew herded Helen and the twins outside and walked them to the shopping area.
