Part 4

Louis returns to Italy with his son, and Sir Marmaduke reluctantly agrees to allow Hugh to try and track him down again. Meanwhile, in Wells, a lonely Aunt Stanbury sends her maid to Nuncombe with a peace offering for Dorothy. She arrives to find Brooke, who has refused to accept Dorothy’s letter and has persuaded her to marry him despite her aunt’s embargo. Elsewhere, a desperate Gibson confesses to Mrs French that he cannot go through with his marriage to Camilla.
