Earlier today -
after dinner in fact- a strange gipsy women came to the house. Mr Eshton wished
her to be thrown out immediately but Colonel Dent encouraged us to see him.
Mother of course protested saying it was lowly and idiotic. I wasn’t surprised,
that's what mother always says about anything remotely interesting and new.
Partly to spite mother and partly because I was curious to get my fortune told.
Turns out, that old hag didn't want to appear in front of everyone and would
only speak to the young and single women alone. Of course I went first….
According to the
gipsy, Mr Rochester is not as rich as he pretends to be!! I'm was so surprised
I could barely keep a straight face in front of the others when I went back.
Originally I refused to believe it was true, but the strange gipsy women had no
reason to lie. But I just can't believe he would lie to all of us. Especially
me. I thought we had something special, but everything was a lie. I simply
cannot marry someone who lied to me and isn't actually rich.
Totally Blanche xx
OMG!! Can't believe he would lie about something like that - and to you of all people!
