“Yes. Someone’s been writing anonymously to her, and their feelings towards her vary greatly.”
Derby watched as Dobson picked up one of the letters and read it, his brow furrowing. His valet gave a low whistle.
“Whoa. This is so full of vitriol. It’s surprising the pages haven’t burnt her fingers.” He put the letter back down. “Sounds like the writer is rather unstable.”
“Or obsessed to the point that he believes Amy is his and his alone.” The thought of Amy being anyone else’s didn’t sit well with Derby. He pushed this aside. “I’ve been sending out word to people, see what they can find out. There must be something there.”
“Well, it’s not going to come to you as you sit here staring at them.” Dobson retorted. “Do not worry about Miss Hartley for now or the letters. They will still be here when you get back.”
“I suppose.” Derby reluctantly pushed away from the desk. “If only I could use this as an excuse to leave early.”
“Maybe you can. Although maybe you shouldn’t say it out loud. You might cause some scandal for Miss Hartley.”
“How so? She came to me for help. There’s nothing untoward happening.”
“You know how people twist and turn things into something that it isn’t.”
Derby knew that all too well. People in Society were always so eager to look for flaws and something to gossip about. Those in disgrace or about to fall from grace were more interesting for conversations. Derby hated listening to all of that.
“They need better things to do with their life,” he grumbled.
Dobson smiled as he fell into step at his master’s side.
“I couldn’t agree more, my lord.”
