They marry, but Cecilia conceals her past engagement from him, despite his honesty about his own history. When Sir Francis reveals her secret, George feels betrayed and leaves for abroad, prompting Cecilia to return to her mother in Exeter. However, her sister-in-law plays a pivotal role in mending their fractured relationship.
