The festivities were certainly as delightful as the company, for this writer was fantasied by the chaos and scandals that laid in their midst. Who knew that one night could pose so many opportunities for my comments? It were almost as if you made it too easy for me to fixate on the wrongdoings of our latest social elites.
It was difficult to miss the proximity of a Miss Kate Sharma and Viscount Bridgerton -- though, this did not last for long, as it appears the two had a disagreement, and thus parted ways with anguish in the air. Who knows what is truly in store for these love birds, but one things for certain -- if love is in the air, then he will not like the intentions of Simon Basset and Colby Ledger who made sure to indulge in Miss Sharma's company whilst the Viscount was 'pre-occupied'. However, was such company bait for Viscount Bridgerton to see what he was missing? It is evident that we have not heard the last of this feud.
As per Bridgerton nature, a Mr Colin Bridgerton appears to have gotten himself into quite the predicament. Our 'wallflower' Penelope Featherington appears to have caught his eye. This writer has her reservations, after all, why would it take him this long to notice his close friend, of whom he had been writing to over his travels? We all know writing to anyone other than family is forbidden, and Mr Bridgerton is no less familiar with this rule. Hidden in the shadows Colin stole a kiss, though it did not last long before Miss Featherington was seen fleeing the scene. Do we feel he has perhaps broken her heart, so soon? It was lucky to see a certain Montague was there to look after dear Penelope -- be careful Colin, you may be too late for this wallflower.
Did anyone notice the frown that remained on a certain Daphne Bridgerton's face this evening? It is certain that this diamond was left high and dry by someone who has caught her eye. Prince Luis -- who appears to have caught a fair share of ladies eyes this evening, for right, or wrong reasons. Sadly, Luis seems pre-occupied preparing to court a Phoebe Pendlebury. This writer is certain this is of new knowledge, a rather fast paced engagement, don't you agree? This writer awaits the reaction of Phoebe's brothers, Arthur and Graham, whom were not consulted prior to such arrangements -- let the chaos commence.
Keeping with the Pendlebury's, it appears they are all having troubles with love. Graham, his wife no where in sight, and flirting with no other than Lady Eleanor. Scandalous -- just the way this writer likes it. Though careful Eleanor, we wouldn't want you to taint your own name, with a married man, no less. Arthur, reunited with former love Amelie, fighting against all in which they believed to be true, turns out to be a lie. Will these lovers reunite? or will there be problems to arise when she realises Arthur hasn't simply waited for her? This writer saw Defne speaking with the lord, perhaps it's her turn in love?
Marquis Hector Darrington, and his wife appear to have returned to London. This reader is happy on such occasions, especially with Sophia's prior history with the Viscount. I do wonder what his reaction may be to her premature return, in the midst of him having trouble in love. Though, the couple do appear to be having their own troubles -- I do wonder if this is because of jealousy, or something more? With Sophia's past, we are sure to expect scandal.
This writer does not miss a thing -- such as the kiss between a certain Sebastian and Clara. A rather sweet display, though will her brother Kerem agree to such indecencies? Though a certain Kerem, his fiancee not in sight, so perhaps he has his own problems to fight?
A certain Edwina Sharma was seen speaking with Prince Friedrich, though, it appears she was none-the-wiser of his heritage. For one night only, Friedrich got to live a 'normal' life, but this writer has sadly, burst that bubble. Rather sweet sights seen between the both of them. Though, naïve as Miss Edwina may be, had not noticed how fond a certain Miss Agnes is of her.
The evening brought many people together, including old flames Owen and Delilah, and newer potentials such as Andrew and Florence.
This reader is keen to see how the above cope with scandals being revealed, for we know , it'll be as scandalous as the night prevailed.
For I am sure scandals will follow suit, and for what is it worth -- i'll be watching.
