Character card on a plain warm rust-and-olive backdrop. George Wickham — 29, athletic and relaxed, light stubble, warm hazel-green eyes and an easy crooked grin, chestnut-brown tousled hair, a soft rust henley under an open tan jacket, dark jeans and boots — stands loose and disarming with one hand in his pocket. Warm and likeable on the surface, calculating underneath. Caption: 'GEORGE WICKHAM — WARM SMILE, COLD READ'

About this chapter
A bonus cast-guide interlude: a clean character-card lineup of everyone in Lizzie Bennet's tangled orbit as of the Ms. de Bourgh estate visit. One portrait per principal with their name and their essence in a single caption — Lizzie the sharp, unbowed protagonist; Darcy the cold man slowly thawing; Jane and Charles, the right people with the wrong timing; George Wickham, warm smile and cold read; Caroline Bingley, insults gift-wrapped; Charlotte Lucas, who chose a roof over butterflies; Mr. Collins, who treats courtship like a sales pitch; the newly arrived Ms. de Bourgh on her throne; and the whole Bennet household — five daughters and one mission. A quick who's-who for new readers and a midpoint snapshot of the whole board before the story turns.
