I just had to share this picture because the gentleman with the pipe just looked like he could be a Lord Westonbury sort of fellow. 🙂 And it appears, from the expression on the other man’s face, that a bit of scheming might be taking place in whatever room they are in. (And a bit of scheming has taken place in our story. 😉 )

“Why are you here?” Darcy asked Lord Westonbury.
“To see to Alfred,” Richard answered.
“Does he need a guardian?”
“No,” Wes admitted with a grin. “However, you must know that Young Alfred is unaccustomed to being in trouble.”
“He is not in trouble,” Darcy assured Wes. “Mr. Langley will be well even if you are not here.”
“I am not leaving,” Wes replied. “I wish to see what I started to its conclusion.”
“What you started?” Richard laughed. “I think it is what Darcy started.”

I am so glad you’ve included Wes in this story, he is one of my favourite OC’s of yours!!!
Mine, too! I love Wes. 🙂
I love Wes and like Deanna said… he is one of my favorite. Yep, you nailed it. Those guys in the picture are too proud of themselves. At least the guy on the right has the decency to look chagrined. His glance to his left is telling. He should not play cards… his smirk gives him away. Love it.
They both certainly are enjoying whatever it was they were doing. 🙂
Definitely Lord Westonbury!

Really like the skill that went into this piece. Looking forward to reading this story about Miss Darcy.
