Chapter 11My Dearest Edith,
You were surprised that Ian would have a warm fire for you when you returned home. Of course, he would. He has always been thoughtful and kind. I hope that you and Lady Collingsworth enjoy each other's company. If she offers to help you, let her, what harm can she do?
Are you ready for what I am about to tell you? I have a son. I cannot believe that you, and I were with child at the same time. Is that not amazing? You must have had your child by now, was it a boy or girl?
Edith, did you know when you were with child? I did not. Captain English was worried about my having morning sickness for a couple of months, and sent a doctor. When the doctor told me, I was with child, I was shocked to say the least.
Captain English and his aunts have been nothing but kin
