Miss Jones?
If she was the Viscount’s daughter, then that would mean … she was the one he ran into!
“You mean you truly don’t know?”
The words dragged Timothy out of his thoughts, refocusing on what Jonathan was saying. “Know what?”
“Her reputation. Or lack thereof, I should say. She is the lady who bore a child for an unknown man two years ago. She’s unmarriageable.”
With such a beautiful face such as that, Timothy found that hard to believe. “She’s being asked for dances though.”
“Yes, she is.” Jonathan sounded confused at that. “I wonder why that is. I’m sure most gentlemen are turned off by her motherhood. Especially seeing how she got pregnant in the first place.”
“None of that matters to me.”
Timothy returned his gaze to the crowd, more eager than ever to spot her. He could feel Jonathan’s eyes boring into him. “Why should you care at all?”
He didn’t respond. He knew what Jonathan was thinking. Timothy was already spoken for, to be betrothed to his sister, Lady Nancy Bramber. A fine lady herself, she was somewhere in the crowd and Timothy would do well to remember where he stood. But he could hardly do so with the image of Miss Jones flashing in his mind. His legs itched to weave through the crowd, his tongue longing to speak to her. He just hoped he was masking all this very well.
“It seems my sister wants her dance.”
Lady Nancy Bramber was steadily making her way toward them, smiling invitingly. Timothy couldn’t bring himself to smile. He could hardly bring himself to look at her for long, still wanting to find that lady. When she asked him to dance, he accepted without a second thought, leading her out onto the ballroom floor, half hoping he could stay on his own two feet this time around.
Then, he spotted her, and it was as if the entire world disappeared.
