"I think you know Sir Felix Carbury," continued Georgiana.
"Oh yes, we know Sir Felix Carbury."
"He is coming down to his cousin's. I suppose it is for your bright eyes, as Carbury Manor would hardly be just what he would like."
"I don't think he is coming because of me," said Marie blushing. She had once told him that he might go to her father, which according to her idea had been tantamount to accepting his offer as far as her power of acceptance went. Since that she had seen him, indeed, but he had not said a word to press his suit, nor, as far as she knew, had he said a word to Mr. Melmotte. But she had been very rigorous in declining the attentions of other suitors. She had made up her mind that she was in love with Felix Carbury, and she had resolved on constancy. But she had begun to tremble, fearing his faithlessness.

I think you know Sir Felix Carbury."
Marie, still abashed by the grandeur and fashionable haughtiness of her new acquaintances, said, "Oh yes, we know Sir Felix Carbury."
"He is coming down to his cousin's. I suppose it is for your bright eyes, as Carbury Manor would hardly be what he would like."
"I don't think he is coming because of me," said Marie, blushing. She had once told him that he might go to her father, which she felt had been tantamount to accepting his offer as far as she was able. Since then she had seen him, indeed, but he had not said a word to press his suit, nor, as far as she knew, had he said a word to Mr. Melmotte. But she had been very rigorous in declining the attentions of other suitors. She had made up her mind that she was in love with Felix Carbury, and she had resolved on constancy. Yet she had begun to tremble, fearing his faithlessness.
