eloise & cressida.
It seemed her worst nightmare had been realised. Eloise had always loathed Cressida, and she'd never quite imagined they'd end up here. Everyone in the ton knew how awful she was, how she should be avoided at all costs...so what on earth had her brother been thinking? What on earth was her mama thinking, allowing the union to go ahead? Surely someone could have put a stop to it, interrupted the ceremony, declared their undying love for her brother..? Anything would have done, anything to save her from the absolute torture she'd spend the rest of her life enduring. As if it wasn't bad enough that Cressida Cowper had to be her sister-in-law, she had also become a viscountess, also become the Lady of the Bridgerton house, and Eloise was about ready to accept the first proposal that came her way. If it got her far, far away from living under that roof, she'd marry anyone. She'd always hated the notion of marriage, but she'd come to realise she hated Cressida more. How much control would she have over their family now? She was still a woman, of course, but there were certain freedoms that came with marriage, that Eloise could not deny — not to mention the title, the money, the status. And, God, her nephews and nieces would be half Cowper. The notion was sickening.
"Your husband isn't here," she muttered, trying not to gag on the words. Could they not get a divorce? Surely the Queen would allow that, after she realised poor Anthony must have had some sort of head injury to actually go through with such a union. There was no other explanation. "I am certain there are matters that you can attend to elsewhere — far away from me."
