Ruthiella Well, this explains the secrecy of it all…somewhat. 12h
dabbe Osborne is annoying me like a pebble in my shoe. I adore Roger and want him to like Molly, not Cynthia. The squire's an ass, though it was good to see him laugh over a smoke with Roger. 12h

ElizaMarie @dabbe my thoughts exactly :) 11h
mcctrish Osborne has no money now so he might as well tell his father about Aimee and explain where all his money went. It would be cheaper to house Aimee at home. The Squire can then tell him why they basically advanced him the money they did ( cuz mama pushed for it) someone can slap Roger so he can see Molly and bring her home too 10h
rubyslippersreads I‘m disappointed the wife isn‘t a character we already know. Kind of like coming to the end of a mystery where the murderer is someone we‘ve never heard of. 😏 9h
willaful @rubyslippersreads Well, we do still have HOURS and HOURS of the book left. 😂

TheAromaofBooks I honestly feel bad for the squire. While he may not be the brightest, I do think he genuinely loved his wife and feels completely lost without her. He's grieving so much and I think he's turning some of that grief into anger at Osborne - it's pretty natural to want a target when you're sad like that. But I do think Osborne is dumb for keeping this all a secret. How can things get worse by telling him?? 7h
Bklover @rubyslippersreads I agree!! I kind of thought they‘d surprise us! 7h
rubyslippersreads @willaful True, but this particular mystery has been solved. (Unless someone murders Aimee and Osborne remarries. 😂) (edited) 5h
Ruthiella @rubyslippersreads I know! I thought it might have been Lady Harriet…because Rodger mentioned that name much earlier to Molly. 10m
