I will never stand in your way！
The four walked on together． Marian broke the silence by saying，‘No， we have
human no chance against her！’She looked joylessly at Tess．‘What do you mean？’asked Tess．‘He likes you best， the very best！We saw as he brought you over． He'd have kissed you if you had encouraged him， only a little．’
They were no longer cheerful but they were not bitter．They were generous country girls who accept that such things happen．Tess's heart ached．She knew that she loved Angel Clare， perhaps all the more passionately because the others also loved him．And yet that same hungry heart of hers pitied her friends．
‘I will never stand in your way！’ she cried to them that evening in the bedroom．‘I don't think he's thinking of marrying， but even if he asked me， I'd refuse him， as I'd refuse any man．’
