Chapter 40: Naughty is the New Nice
Jane is having second thoughts," Elizabeth announced as they joined the men on the dock. William frowned. He was a bit surprised, since Jane had been the one who had been hit the worst by Caroline. "We really need to talk this through so that everybody is okay with this plan of ours and the consequences that can come thereof." Elizabeth sat down next to William and snuggled close. He kissed her hair briefly before looking around at the people around him. It really did look like a war meeting of sorts. They were all looking very focused and concerned.
"Perhaps Jane is right," Peter said. "Just because we now have a mole, it doesn't necessarily mean that we have to use this information, let alone expose Caroline at the Ball."
"I for one think she needs to be publically exposed," Georgiana said firmly.
"Charlie, she's you sister, what do you think?" Jane turned to her boyfriend for support. Charles shrugged and didn't really seem to know what to say. "I just think that if we do this, at least at the Ball, we're just as bad as her." Jane crossed her arms in front of her and put on her best stern teacher face.
