The Colbourne Family | I Found Love

I have known love, Miss Markham. I was loved in return. Then he died. Those girls belonged to Alexander Colborne. After the death of his wife some years ago, Mr Colborne largely withdrew from society. Our mothers are dead. Both of them. What of it? Oh, my dear friend, I'm so sorry. It's what men do, Charlotte. They grow weary. My career came at a cost to Xander. He chose to shoulder the familial burden. It should have been mine. No fear it cost him his marriage. I know what it means to grieve. We are nothing alike. Leonora, will you leave us? The girls hardly know you. Perhaps in time you'll come to realise that's for the best. My uncle is incapable of change. I need to find she was with child. His child. Augusta's not my child. She's not aware of that. I am not your daughter. You intend to pretend she just doesn't exist? Suppress your feelings. I believe that's the motto on our family crest. Who listens to her? Who even speaks in this house of silence? This mausoleum. He doesn't deserve you. That is all I am to you. Heywood! She brought light into a house which before her knew only darkness. Will you sit beside me? What is it that you are frightened of, uncle? That we might finally be happy. Go to her, please. You hold so much potential. I will endeavour to be better, I give you my word. I'm sad to think I might not be included. She is astounding. I'm glad for you, Sam. But what if Augusta's right? And they do fall in love? Miss Heywood will be my mother. You cannot explain the effect you have had. As if you've restored us back to life. I've never met anyone I wanted to share this with. Until now. You bewitched me from the very first moment we met. But I regret this. You're filling young girls' heads with ideas again, Mrs. Talbot.
