At the edge of the sleek sitting room, Darcy goes completely still at the sight of Lizzie framed in the rainy doorway — his usual cold guard cracking, steel-grey eyes fixed on her, lips slightly parted, caught off guard. Beyond him, in soft focus, Lizzie stands flushed and windblown, mud on her jeans. A silent, charged beat. (No dialogue.)

Darcy goes still and stares, his cold composure cracking, as a rain-soaked, muddy Lizzie appears in the doorway behind him.
关于本章
Caroline Bingley invites Jane to Netherfield, and Mrs. Bennet — smelling opportunity — packs her off on a bike with no ride home just as the sky turns, betting a downpour will force Jane to stay the night. The plan works too well: Jane arrives soaked, spikes a fever, and is stuck under Bingley's roof, sick. When the news reaches home, Lizzie doesn't hesitate — she walks three miles of muddy road to reach her sister, arriving flushed, windblown, and unbothered by the mud on her jeans. Caroline is appalled; Bingley is charmed; and Darcy, who came to Netherfield certain Lizzie's laughter meant nothing to him, cannot stop looking at her. Cornered into the same house for one long evening, Lizzie and Darcy trade barbs across the dinner table — and by the time the rain is still tapping the guest-room window, Lizzie catches herself not entirely hating that she's stuck here.
