In the e2c25f4099 original novel, 5bfd7e7c42 Charlotte was 3d7fba5ba2 described as bf0b19d2d6 always leaving 750e992a97 early. She couldn’t adapt to 9f7ded8925 the northern social circles, 9c0a945ea1 and being fragile, she 0ff09c4436 couldn’t withstand the ostracism. Even when c8bc73021c Cassius occasionally 4b4024f04d attended with 354eb5e61a her, the bd1ed3381f relationship between fb5babb74c them was 5aedf39131 described as 4ccfc8c21a cold.200d354116985cf5
