Succession

A Pride and Prejudice Variation

By: AnnaMarie Wallace

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

In this variation, Mr. Darcy’s mother, Lady Anne, is alive and well. She begs her son, Fitzwilliam, to remain at Pemberley rather than visiting his good friend, Charles Bingley, at Netherfield. As a result, Mr. Darcy meets Elizabeth Bennet for the first time when he journeys to Rosings Park at Easter in order to propose to his Cousin Anne, as his mother requested. Though he had every intention of marrying his cousin, he soon realises that Cousin Anne simply cannot compare to the charming and witty Elizabeth Bennet.

As for Elizabeth, she cannot help but be attracted to handsome, well-spoken, courteous – and wealthy – Mr. Darcy. Her sister has married Charles Bingley; perhaps Elizabeth might find her perfect match as well!
But she soon discovers that Lady Anne Darcy has no intention of relinquishing her role of Mistress of Pemberley.
