quite safe
I was very frightened now.She could be lost on the moors!
She could have tried to climb the hills,and fallen!I walked across the moors as fast as I could,and arrived breathless at Wuthering Heights.How glad I was to see one of her dogs lying outside the kitchen door!I knocked loudly,and Zillah let me in.I knew she had been the housekeeper there since Hindley's death. ‘Ah,'she said,‘you've come for your little mistress!She's here,quite safe!The master,Mr Heathcliff,isn't here.He won't be back for a while.’
quite safe
Cathy was sitting comfortably in the kitchen,talking eagerly to Hareton.He was now a big,strong young man of eighteen,who was staring rather stupidly at her.I was delighted to find her again,but I pretended to be angry to punish her. ‘Well,miss!You are wicked,going such a long way all alone!I've been all over the moors looking for you!looking father will be angry!’ ‘What have I done?'she sobbed,suddenly frightened. ‘Father didn't forbid me to leave the Grange garden!He won't scold me,Ellen.He's never cross,like you!And I've been to the hills,Ellen!This-man-showed me,
because I didn't know the way.’
