In this pivotal chapter, Elizabeth Bennet is shocked to learn that her close friend, Charlotte Lucas, has accepted a marriage proposal from the pompous Mr. Collins. Despite Charlotte's practical reasoning—securing her future—Elizabeth finds it hard to comprehend a union based on convenience rather than love. Their friendship begins to show signs of strain as Elizabeth grapples with Charlotte’s decision. Meanwhile, Mr. Wickham shares more details about Mr. Darcy’s past behavior, further cementing Elizabeth’s negative opinion of Darcy.
