CHAPTER EIGHTEEN
Mr. Rochester's Story
"It's true, sir," I said, trying to stop myself from crying.
"Everything around me has changed, and so I must change too. Adele must have a new teacher."
"Oh, Adele will go to boarding school. I've already decided that. And you and I will both leave this house, this stone hell, this house of living death! We can never be happy here, under the same roof as Bertha Mason. Oh, how I hate her!"
"Sir," I cried. "Don't hate her! You can't! It's not her fault she is mad!"
"Jane, my darling, it's not because she's mad that I hate her! If you were mad, I wouldn't hate you. I'd take care of you lovingly. But why talk of this? We are ready to travel. Tomorrow we'll be leave. I know a place where nobody will find us or talk about us."
"And take Adele with you, sir. She will be your companion." I interrupted. I was shaking all over, but I knew I had to tell him soon.
