Jonathan sees Antonia at a ball in black and it is 3 years after Renard has passed. She mostly lives in her memories and her grandchildren bring the only joy to her life. J realizes that she likely just needs someone to listen. He lost the love of his life and understands. He defies Roxton to ask her to dance. Then, he appears uninvited, but with notice, at her pavilion and seeks to distract her from her grief.

I was crying so much that my eyes are red and puffy this morning. Antonia found out that Julian had sold the hotel in Paris and barged in to see if it was true. Charles is spying for the Americans, and they blamed Antonia. Julian lost his temper and yelled at his mother. Fredrick overheard. Antonia's self-pity turned to self-loathing. Duke let quack "treat" her and tortured & fondled her instead.

Jonathan's family holdings were improperly absorbed into the Roxton estate and he is trying to get them back. Part of them were flooded to form the lake and the others were given to Antonia as her widow's share. A dresses in green (instead of black) for regatta for Fredrick's team that is named after her.
