John Stirling: May I join you a moment?
Francesca Bridgerton: I should like that.
(They sit next to each other, smiling, rest of the Bridgertons watching them from afar…)
Gregory Bridgerton: She does not speak to him.
Eloise Bridgerton: I am in awe. I thought one had to use wit or banter to dissuade a suitor. But simple silence is radically more effective.
Hyacinth Bridgerton: Perhaps they are enjoying themselves.
Violet Bridgerton: But how will they know each other if they do not speak?
