Mr. Nesbitt and Sir William’s daughter Isabel had an affair, and Isabel had a secret abortion for this. This can be seen from the intimacy of Mr. Nesbitt’s first private meeting with Isabel after his arrival. Secondly, when the maid foreman Elsie met with Isabel before leaving, Isabel asked her if she was pregnant. The conversation hinted:
Isabel: You are not in any difficulty, are you?
Elsie: What , apart from having no home and no job?
Elsie: Nah, There's no worries there.
Isabey: Yes, I was forgetting, you were much clever than I was.
2. Mary First Day When I went downstairs to wash clothes in the evening, I met Mr. Jeremy Blond and the kitchen maid Bertha. I didn’t see Blond. But a few minutes later, I saw Sir William. She thought it was Sir William and Bertha who had an affair, but actually Sir William had an affair with Bertha. William came down to have a tryst with the maid foreman Elsie. This can be seen from Elsie and Mary later when Elsie was definitely not William, and Sir William winked at Elsie during dinner.
