I think I really was blind... Written by MarianneR (10/31/2008 4:00 a.m.) in consequence of the missive, Mrs Clay's future - a doubtful point., penned by Rachel G

When Anne chooses Wentworth, Mr E averts disaster very effectively by taking Mrs Clay as his mistress. I don´t know why this didn´t jump into my eye earlier - it really makes sense. Mr. Elliot is still trying to pull the strings concerning his heritage. But marrying her? Good question. Perhaps JA really wrote this with an twinkling eye, asking the reader: if two people being so sly as they were are trying to entangle each other - who will be the winner? Have to think it over again...
