Chapter Summaries & Analyses
Mr. B is happy to hear that Pamela is back. She “longed to see my master” (291). Pamela and Mr. B talk affectionately; he has arranged for Mr. Williams to be freed, and all charges dropped. When Pamela expresses her concern about Mr. B’s quarrel with his sister, Lady Davers, Mr. B shows her a letter from Lady Davers rebuking Mr. B for the way he is treating Pamela. Lady Davers writes that he if wants a mistress, he should choose someone else and leave Pamela alone; Lady Davers’s real concern is that Mr. B may be seriously thinking of marrying Pamela. Lady Davers expresses her horror at the idea of Mr. B marrying down.
Mr. B has recovered, and offers to take Pamela for a drive in his carriage. Pamela wonders if she should change into finer clothes, but he is happy with her modest country attire. Mr. B admits that everyone will disapprove of the marriage between him and Pamela. Pamela tells Mr. B that she does not care what anyone else thinks, and feels confident they can have a happy life together.
Pamela shows him the anonymous note she found in the garden, and confronts him about the sham marriage plot.
