He had not scrupled to say that he meant to see her through this business with Lord Fawn, and had somewhat astonished Mr.Camperdown by raising a doubt on the question of the necklace.

"He can't but know that she has no more right to it than I have," Mr.Camperdown had said to his son with indignation.
Mr.Camperdown was becoming unhappy about the necklace, not quite knowing how to proceed in the matter.
In the meantime Frank had obeyed his better instincts, and had asked Lucy Morris to be his wife.

He had gone to Fawn Court in compliance with a promise to Lizzie Eustace, that he would call upon her there.
He had walked with Lucy because he was at Fawn Court.

And he had written to Lucy because of the words he had spoken during the walk.
In all this the matter had arranged itself as such matters do, and there was nothing, in truth, to be regretted.

He really did love the girl with all his heart.
