Eliza/Bing her trip to Ramsgate and then to London and all the activity between her and Darcy I can't help wondering if Darcy hasn't already figured it out, but won't admit to the Col for the sake of his loves Reputation?
But if he did then I think he would have become aroused wrestling with her.
All the torment poor Lizzy has been put through and especially him dancing with the same lady twice at the ball. I can't help wondering if she wasn't in fact a cousin or something.
I am so happy that you plan another post so soon Thank you
Thank you dear Hanghuh and Geri,
Like I said before, I would not dare to spoil the built up suspense...but I cannot help loving all this feed back. Lacy and you two have indeed been doing your homework.
I am already working on chapter 20. I have a whole week before the holidays, right? So I can safely say that I will have not one, but probably two or even three chapters by Xmas

Great Chapter
Geri
I don't think she was Darcy's cousin, someone would have said so, if she was.
I wonder if Darcy did worked it out too and conceal this from Richard, after all, Darcy was
Evidently, he was savouring the aftermath of the exertion, very much in the manner a tomcat relishes a bowl of cream, licking his whiskers with satisfaction when he is done
why? I wonder if he was trying to make Elizabeth jealous? I'm up for everything to happen at once, I undecided if we should hear Bingley's accounts from Hertfordshire next, or Darcy's & Jane's accounts next. What was Darcy thinking, training Bingley all those sports? I bet Darcy did that on purpose, wanting to be as close to Elizabeth as possible. Fencing, billiard, boxing, riding
he can't be that oblivious after all, the dog likes bingley who don't do sport, can't ride astride, yet can play a jig very ill indeed
what wonderful news, Malena, a couple of chapters before Christmas, thank you thank you
Dear, dear Hanhghu,
Your after-thoughts are delightful. Love that you are so into the story. Will take it into account. Really, anything can happen. Hope I can surprise you all anyway. Will work really hard to do so.
really really did not expect for Bingley's family to drug him, and I'm mad that Darcy is so lack in perception as well.
I wonder why Bingley did not took Jane away during this time he was Elizabeth. I really hope that Elizabeth came back and stop all nonsense, and that Mr Collin married someone else, but now that Bingley thought all is lost, I suppose he will stay away from Hertfordshire for sometime
Everything is fine gals. Its only my beta is on a stand by mode. She doesnt think she can have time to check on my stories for...humphs indefinitely. So I am checking and double checking until i can safely say it is minimally correct. And no...no one else will do.

Malena, we dont need perfection..just another post!
All of a sudden after reading chapter 21, I remembered how angry I was at Darcy after reading the Ch where he was paying so much special attention to the Blond chick. And I got a flash, was he doing that because he was worried that he was starting to feel sexually atracted to Bing/Lizzy and it scare him? I believe his subconsious realize that Bing/Lizzy is LIzzy.
Thank you Geri,
You are absolutely right. Darcy must know, but his practical mind prevents him from acknowledging the whole thing. Proof after proof he simply rejects the idea because it is too preposterous, too fantastic.
Thanks for your insightful comment!
that chapter 21 was absolutely not enough Malena
but I'm glad the Jane will not be marrying Mr Collins and for Elizabeth quick thinking. I wonder if she suspect that poor Charles has been imprisoned, or is she only thinking of how to get back to her Darcy? This is the last swap, right, Malena?
Thank you, thank you Geri for that insight
Darcy rejection is better than plain blindness, it would also explain why he spend so much time with Charles, teaching him fencing, boxing
Thankfully, Lizzy came up with a clever idea to stop the Collins/Jane nupitals.
Can't wait till we find out how Lizzy succeeds/fails with her attempt to contact her avoded betrothed.
More please, Irene
I am so happy for another chapter of this fun story! I love Elizabeth's words about her beau and hope something will happen for her soon. Was the bouquet from Mr. Bingley? That was a good cliffhanger!
What a great chapter! I sure hope you won't make us wait as long as Lizzie for the next. She certainly is acting much like Marianne, eh? I hope Darcy doesn't pull a Willoughby move.
Yes, Wendi. Totally taken from Marianne's woes. Though not so much tragical. Darcy is no Willoughby, LOL.
Glad you two enjoyed it, gals.Thanks for the comments. Next chapter perhaps you'll find a happy Fanny...I mean Elizabeth.
I do too think that card and flower are from Bingley, not Darcy. After all, why would Darcy send Elizabeth flower? Is he not in Kent? Actually, I'm not sure of the months, but will they go to Hunsford?
Oh, there are so many questions. Lizzy sent the note to Darcy's house ofcourse but is Bingley still with his family? Is Bingley still drugged? Are the flowers from Darcy or Bingley?
Please post soon - I'm not sure I can stand being is suspense for long.
Malena, I have loved this story ever since you started to write it. It's hilarious (of course), so inventive and clever - and I really cannot wait to see how you resolve it! Bless the dear Colonel! He is adorable.
Nothing can be guaranteed to make one lol more than when reading your story!
As always, a wonderful chapter...though very mean of you to leave it there ;) I hope to see another soon! I love it that Col F is on her side! Thanks so much, Malena!
Oh I do not like of trust Miss Richmond and I'm so angrY AT Darcy for even dancing or pay any attention at all on her.
I do believe that Fitzwilliam should take Miss Richmond, Miss Bennet and the Gardnier children home I'm sure that Darcy can handle and protect Lizzy and Georgie.
Yes, I agree with the comment that Darcy must have felt drawn towards Miss Richmond due to his lost dignity after his unfathomable attraction towards Bingley. LOL.
Thank you all, dear friends for your encouragement. More Naughty Star soon.
I am totally in agreement w/Geri the Colonel needs to take Miss Bennet, the children, and Miss Richmond home, leaving Darcy, Georgiana, and Elizabeth drenched and headed for Darcy House.
At last our couple are together be it ever so wet, and I hope they will stay together.
I do feel sorry for Bingley being put under w/laudeman and everyone thinking he is crazy. What is to become of him? Will his sisters eventually be thankful that Jane will take him as a husband???
Great story, rich and funny Malena! I do hope when Darcy finds out he really was attracted to Elizabeth as a man he is able to cope.
What a treat to find another chapter this morning! Once again, Malena, a great one. I have to agree with Splatt, you are very funny. I cannot help but love your stories. It is upsetting this is almost over, but I fully intend on going back and reading the whole thing from the beginning again as soon as it is.
Very interesting about the Colonel's attitude in this one. Hmmmm...
Malena
I thought for a moment that Darcy was being dumber then a door nail. Thank you for letting him come to his senses.
As for the knock at the door why do I feel like it is the Col? I don't like where his thoughts went. What happened to the man that was helping to bring Lizzy and Darcy together last chapter?
As alway I look forward to more of your wonderful story.
Geri
Oh, Malena! Leaving us hanging off that cliff again, eh? I cannot even imagine what Bingley will say after all he had accepted before returning to London...unless...oh, I cannot wait for the next installment! Loved the results of Elizabeth's "medicine"! Poor Darcy!
