Chapter Summaries & Analyses
Emmy and Julia arrive at the flat around one. There are pillows on the sofa, hinting that their mother has been unable to sleep in her room with them gone. After eating some food, Emmy tells Julia to stay and wait for their mother. She then writes a letter to their mother, telling her that she can send Julia back to Charlotte, and that Emmy will make her proud someday with her dresses. Emmy makes Julia promise to wait for their mother. Exhausted, Julia takes a nap, and Emmy goes to Knightsbridge. At Graham Dabney’s house, she realizes that instead of the brides box in her shawl, she is holding Julia’s fairy-tale book.
Emmy panics when she realizes that Julia had switched the brides box with the fairy-tale book back at Thistle House. In her meeting with Mrs. Crofton, Graham, and Graham’s wife, Madeleine, Graham mentions her asserted desire to open her own boutique, which Emmy confirms. When he asks when Emmy’s mother will be there, Emmy says that she is working but treats her like an adult and will be there in the future. Graham is not persuaded; Emmy is 15 and needs her mother’s permission for him and Madeleine to take her in.
