"Does she know?"Mildred whispered. "No,and she isn't going to find out! Do you understand?Don't tell her anything!" It was then that I knew there was a secret at Thornfield.

We saw Mr. Rochester on his black horse,and with him rode a beautiful lady,her black curls flying in the wind. "That must be Blanche Ingram!" I thought. Soon many ladies and gentlemen were walking through the house,talking and laughing. Adele loved parties and hoped that Mr. Rochester would ask her to meet the guests,but she and I both went to bed early. Mr. Rochester asked for me to bring Adele down the next evening.
