When the come home, they find Marianne in tears running past them up the stairs to her room, and Willoughby in a disappointed state. On questioning, the girls learn that Willoughby has been asked to head to London on business; he is to leave that day. The women are shocked by this statement, and in spite of Mrs. Dashwood extending an invitation for him to stay with them as soon as his business is done, he states that he can not take up her up on her kind offer and leaves.Mrs Dashwood and Elinor are stunned and each of the women think about what could have caused Willoughby to act and speak so unlike himself. Elinor believes that her sister and Willoughby must have, no matter how hard to believe, had a large fight. Her mother soon descends the stairs to join her daughter. Mrs. Dashwood claims to have thought through Willoughby’s behaviour and has concluded that the man had not the power to accept her kind offer and is still sure of Willoughby’s love for her daughter. She believes that Mrs. Smith knows about and disapproves of Willoughby’s attachment to Marianne and has sent him away from her. Elinor and her mother go back and forth a little and Elinor concludes that her mother’s reasoning is probably correct, though she would have liked to have confirmation of their engagement. SEO stuff I don't want to do. Jane Austin's timeless classic Sense and Sensibility follows the story of two girls, Elinor and Marianne Dashwood, and their endeavors in love, marriage, and societal expectations. Love is not easy however, and Elinor finds her sense tested by her charming brother-in-law, while Marianne's sensibility brings her nothing but heartbreak.
