Jane Austen Last Novels & Stories

Jane headed straight towards the kitchen and she all saw that housemaids gathered in a circle on the counter. Jane stared at Inna, wearing her skirt that ends at her ankles, and a top that was tucked in inside. She was holding her bag on her side while taking turns hugging the maids that she had been with for the past twenty years. Jane saw how the tears poured down her eyes as she said goodbye and hugged the maids tightly, especially the head maid of them all. Jane walked slowly towards the counter and one younger maid looked over her.

"I refuse, Mr. Collins. If you don't let go of me, I'll have Michael call Charlotte. If a boy calls Charlotte at this hour, what do you think Frank would do?" Who knew Frank's character better than Zachary? And Jane indeed was capable of doing such things. He held her tightly but eventually released her. Jane immediately stepped out of his embrace and left with Michael. Even in autumn, with a knitted dress and a coat draped over it, her charm remained undiminished. The exposed section of her straight, well-proportioned calf was extremely graceful. As they were about to exit the hall, Zachary saw Michael glance back and give him a provocative smile.

It would have been worth it. But I decided to be smart about it. Instead of causing a scene, I left and waited for her at her apartment. I passed the time flipping through "Pride and Prejudice" by Jane Austen—one of the many romantic classics stacked on her shelf. I had read it before, but tonight, the words barely registered as my mind kept circling back to her, laughing with him like he had not almost ruined her life. My grip tightened around the book, my jaw clenching as seconds stretched into minutes.

Truthfully after struggling with Austin a few years, I realized the world of the rich was totally different from that of the normal people. The way Madam Wilson talked, the Aura she carried was something I have always looked up to. She was that woman no one dares to disrespect. As much as she might look very fiesty, she is the nicest person I have crossed paths with all my life. “This will be my last ball party! As you all know old age is taking over” she stated and laughter filled the whole room. In another few seconds, everyone became quiet again.

Jimmy said to Susan. She laughed. “She’s going to be a famous writer. She’d better have some opinions on literature.” “Fine,” Kimia glared at me. “Jane Austin. She had some great leads.” “Darcy was an asshole to Elizabeth, Bingly let himself be talked away from Jane, Wickham is just a bastard, Wentworth treated Anne like shit because she refused him as a teenager, Edmund Bertram was obsessed with the pretty new girl and forgot about Fanny, Ferras fell in love with Elanore when he was engaged to someone else, Brandon was still hung up on his dead ex, and let’s face it. Nobody cares about Northanger Abbey.”

he inquired. Jane sighed. “That’s the thing, Isaac. It’s August, 1861.” Jane watched as her husband did the math. “That’s right, before Jaris died. Can you believe that? Can you imagine what Margaret is going to think when she finds out?” “Did you read it? Maybe they didn’t start this courting business until later,” Isaac said, wanting to give his daughter the benefit of the doubt. “Not yet,” Jane replied, “But I intend to. I intend to read all of them. There may be some clues in here!”

Of course my day couldn't get any easier. Before I could dwell on it, a tall woman with sharp dark eyes and a neat grey blazer stepped up to the podium at the front of the hall. She tapped her pen twice against the microphone, instantly silencing the room. "Good morning, everyone," Professor Lydia Presley announced, her clear, sharp voice echoing off the high ceiling. "I apologize for the last-minute room change, but we have a heavy agenda today. We are diving straight into character motivation in Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice. Specifically, Mr. Darcy’s infamous proposal to Elizabeth Bennet, and her sharp rejection of him."

After a moment of hesitation, she opened the door a little and peeped inside, when she saw no one, she opened it further and stepped in. Her gaze swept over the room once again, taking in its minimalist, yet elegant state. Everything was orderly, the bed was neatly made, and her eyes were drawn to the small bookshelf next to it. Curiosity got the better of her, and she found herself walking towards the bookshelf. “Jane Austen and R.L Stines,” she murmured as she ran her fingers along the spine of the books, “Interesting taste.” Her gaze landed on a picture frame wedged in between the books and her curiosity piqued further as she gently took it out.

Sir Walter spurned the idea of its being offered in any manner; forbad the slightest hint being dropped of his having such an intention; and it was only on the supposition of his being spontaneously solicited by some most unexceptionable applicant, on his own terms, and as a great favour, that he would let it at all. How quick come the reasons for approving what we like! Lady Russell had another excellent one at hand, for being extremely glad that Sir Walter and his family were to remove from the country. Elizabeth had been lately forming an intimacy, which she wished to see interrupted. It was with the daughter of Mr Shepherd, who had returned, after an unprosperous marriage, to her father'

I responded with a friendly smile. "The essay on Mrs. Allison's book right?" "Jane Austen Mr. Kings.. Jane Austen." She corrects and shakes her head, walking away with a tired sigh. After Flips finished collecting everyone's papers, she resumed discussing Allison's book and its relevance to life. Although I tried to pay attention, listening about Mrs. Darcy over and over again was becoming boring leading me back into my wonderous thoughts about why Brown walked out on me. Right- you might be wondering who Brown is.
