Daphne Basset: I was delayed by doubts about whether the festivities of this day might or might not take place.

Benedict Bridgerton: Does the duchess not care for your bride, Brother?

Benedict Bridgerton: I'm confused. Who is denying what to whom?

Anthony Bridgerton: Benedict, you must excuse us. It seems the duchess has opinions.
