With my eldest brother Collin on his bed as he lays heartbroken

"Dear brother what that girl did has no right to make you feel this way you had clue she was with child brother but you will find your one." I comfort him and so did Theodore which made him smile a bit

"Thank you sister, nephew."

Buckingham palace getting measured but my mind was on the full crisis of my brother

"What's with the face my dear? Is the color not of your liking?" Asked the queen to me

"Oh um no it is beautiful my queen just my color"

"I do hope so it takes the color quite suited to you dear I want you to be by my side always as my new to be lady in waiting and my son wife."

"Yes my queen." At night in the awaiting room with mama Collin and Anthony

"Miss Thompson must be in agonies over these lies. Why can I not visit her?"

"Colin..."

"Listen to me. That the ton devours every bit of Whistledown's on-dit is the only thing keeping this family from shame. Because of her, no one believes you are the father of Miss Thompson's child. But if you were to go near her, they'll presume you responsible for her ruin, and your sisters will pay the price for your notoriety an not rear our sister Elizabeth day of her soon to be wed. Is this what you desire?"

"Of course not, but..."

"Evening, everyone." Turning our heads we see Daphne

"Sister."

"Dearest!"

"What are you doing here? Should you not be frolicking in newlywed bliss?"

"I came as swiftly as our carriage would allow when I heard the news."

"In the middle of your honeymoon?"

"Hastings must surely be cursing the Bridgerton name for this. Where is he, anyhow?"

"He went to set up Hastings House."

"We have all things in order, Sister. We do not require your assistance."

"That is simply not true, and you know it. Daphne and Elizabeth may be the answer to all of our problems. Once the ton see that we still have the favor of the duke and duchess and the future princess also lady in waiting of the queen and the future daughter in law then the whispers may very well cease, and we shall go about our daily lives as if nothing has happened, as if nothing is awry."

"And no one will be the wiser. Pretending that nothing is amiss is the perfect way to lure the ignorant into submission. Is it not, Mama? Now, what grand event will the ton be descending upon this week? Surely there is something?"

"The, um… The queen is hosting a luncheon." I said honestly

"I am certain the duke and I can secure an invitation. If we are lucky, our return to London will give everyone so much to talk about, they simply have no breath left to discuss other matters."
