Millicent stood within the door to her home and eyed the two, she had not been expecting Mr. Darcy to drop by but it was not uncommon, he seemed to make a habit of turning up at her threshold without word when it suited him. Even though they were friends in a manner of speaking she would normally give him a lesson in etiquette about showing up unannounced but this was not the time. Contradictory to the norms of society she was honestly elated that he had shown up when he did. It had given her at least one more person that she knew would back her in this instance for she knew within her own home she would have no such support. "I would watch what threats you pass out," Lord Ratherford hissed as he pulled down on his coat to straighten it. Turning he looked over towards Millicent who lifted her chin in defiance to him and a slight smirk gracing her lips. "We will speak again," he said before turning and brushing passed Mr. Darcy as he made his way down the few steps and onto the path that led back to his carriage, passing Virginia as he went and not bothering to acknowledge her in the slightest. His eyes darting over towards Mr. Connolly as he climbed into his carriage before the door shut and his hackney whipped the horses to get them to move. [color=0072bc]"Thank you Mr. Darcy,"[/color] Millicent said as she gave a gentle nod in his direction and stepped through the frame of the open door, glancing around. "You stupid stupid girl! How could you have gone and insulted a man of his title the way you just dared to, do you wish to be forever alone within the confines of this home? Who will take care of you if your father is not found? No one. Without position and husband, not one will dare do business with the Wyndham's and you will lose all the wealth your father has built up," Mrs. Wyndham berated Millicent. Millicent turned slightly to face her step mother as she continued to cause a scene on the front terrace of the manor. "A fighter, a bluestocking, a shelved spinster whom the only that call on her is a man with no want of a wife, whom calls among her friends a grotesque Crypt who would do well to have her brother betrothed to one of my daughters, and whom accepts gifts from servants." Turing Mrs. Wyndham stormed off in a huff, each of Millicents step sisters giving her a look of pity before following their mother to begin the hours of primping for the night before. [color=0072bc]"Please forgive my family's lack of hospitality,"[/color] Millicent said in a forced voice before looking over towards Gerard and nodding slightly with a quick bobble of her head. Her eyes lifting as she spotted people starting to pour out of the park and onto the streets proper. Taking a deep breath to steady her temper and nerves before speaking again. [color=0072bc]"It does appear that there is some form of uproar within Hyde Park, perhaps it would be pertinent if you Mr. Connolly, along with Mr. Darcy if he would so be inclined, should investigate the situation. I am afraid that if something is a foot that I cannot leave the Manor, it would mean leaving my family defenseless."[/color] Looking over towards Virginia she took another breath before stepping down the stairs and onto the foot path. Stepping over to her best friend she stopped before her, giving her an apologetic look for the words her step mother had yelled out in front of the world. [color=0072bc]"She is just a bit vexed this morning, planning for this evening's event has her stretched far too thin I am afraid,"[/color] Millicent said, making excuses for her step mother as she always did. [color=0072bc]"What brings you here to see me at this time my dear friend? Did I let slip from my mind a tea time we had planned? If so, do please forgive me. It has been hectic this morning as you have had the misfortune of witnessing."[/color]
