Darcy Novel @page { margin-bottom: 5.000000pt; margin-top: 5.000000pt; } Chapter Twenty-three Darcy set the pen down on the table and examined the letter. He had kept his handwriting small, but still it took two sheets of paper. Perhaps I should read over it to make sure of my phrasing. He shook his head and folded the two sheets together and placed it inside an envelope. He probably should, but he would not. The sooner this letter was in Elizabeth's hand, the better. A knock at his door startled him and he nearly fell over in his chair. "Who is it?" The door opened to admit Richard. "I came to see how you fared..." His jaw dropped when he took in Darcy's ragged appearance. "Good Lord, William, what happened? When you did not come down for tea, I assumed you had gone to propose... and when you did not return for dinner, I believed you had found a more pleasant way to occupy your time." Darcy flinched. "Your first assumption was correct." Richard frowned. "You do not mean to say she refused you?" Darcy glanced down at the envelope in his hand.
