☆☆☆☆☆Elizabeth rejected Darcy.
She gave her reasons for this, which included the fact that he had separated her sister Jane from his friend, Bingley; the fact that she believed he had ruined Wickham, and the fact that she regarded him as conceited and arrogant.
Darcy muddled his response to this, and needed to write his famous letter to clarify the issue. He made it clear that he regarded her family as very inferior to his own, and that he regarded separating Jane from Bingley as doing his friend a service.
Both of them were clearly very angry by the time the scene was over.
Darcy paid Wickham's debts, bought him a commission in the regular army, and gave him some money as a bribe to marry Lydia.
