In this chapter, we learn that Clymline has been leading a miserable life after her marriage to Darnay, and that Darnay is not fond of her at all. Darnay's personality, she tells us, is as "hard as a rock" , and he will not treat her well if he does not like her. She tells him to go back to his country and work for the Lu's group, and to tell her father that he will listen to what he has to say. She also tells him that she has something to tell him, and it is that their honeymoon plan has been ruined twice, once by Darnay and the other time by his mother. She asks him if he still wants to go on the honeymoon with her, but he says that he just wants the two of them together on the vacation.
