Emma has traveled to the faraway village of Haworth to start a new life. Now employed by the wealthy Mölders family, she finds herself faced with an eccentric mistress and surrounded by dozens of other servants.

William, still recovering from the loss of Emma, receives an invitation from Eleanor to visit the crystal palace. Will he be able to escape the memories that haunt him there?

Mrs. Trollope asks Emma to join her at her son’s engagement party, as an attendant. Mrs. Molders decides that Emma will go, but it’s a decision that Emma might soon regret.

William’s heart has been thrown into turmoil. In an attempt to calm him, William’s mother tells him about her past, along with what happened between her and Richard.

William’s decision is made: he’s going to call off the engagement. But such harsh actions will have harsh consequences, especially where Viscount Campbell is involved.

The Viscount’s plan was carried out flawlessly, and now the Jones family faces financial ruin. There are only a few days left to save the railway project, and the company itself.

Fire breaks out at the Mölders’ home, and Emma rushes to help! Meanwhile, William has his hands tied trying to save the family business; today is the last day before the railway project is closed. But today is also the day when Emma and William must either meet at the fountain, or never again… When the appointed time comes, what will they choose?
