Heathcliff and Isabella were both in the main room
As soon as I had read this,I asked Mr Edgar if I could take a message from him to his sister.
‘You may visit her this afternoon,Ellen,if you like.Tell her I'm not angry,just sorry to have lost her.I can't imagine she will ever be happy.I shall never visit her or write to her.’
When I arrived at Wuthering Heights that afternoon,I was shocked to see how much worse the house looked than when I used to live there.I realized that Hindley did not care what conditions he lived in,and Joseph clearly spent more time praying than cleaning.Heathcliff and Isabella were both in the main room.Heathcliff looked more like a gentleman than I had ever seen him,but his wife had not bothered to brush her hair or change her dress.I had to explain to poor Isabella that Mr Edgar had refused to write to her.She cried a little when she heard that.Then Heathcliff asked me question after question about Catherine's illness.
