Jane Eyre

Jane has been to many nightly dinners with Mr. Rochester and his guests. One day, when Mr. Rochester is "away," a fortune teller shows up to the house and asks for all the single young ladies one at a time to read their fortunes. Jane is the last girl to go and see the fortune teller. Jane was not nervous or scared to go and get her fortune read, she was actually excited to have it done. While Jane is out getting her fortune read, a Mr. Mason arrives at Thornfield, he is a strange fellow who tells all the people that he is an old friend of Mr. Rochester's and that he is going to stay at the house until Mr. Rochester returns from his journey. As the fortune teller says Jane's fortune her voice deepens and Jane discovers that the fortune teller is actually Mr. Rochester. Jane tells Mr. Rochester that Mr. Mason had arrived and Mr. Rochester becomes worried. That same night Jane is awoken by a scream in the night. Jane goes out into the hallway, with everyone else, and Mr. Rochester tells everyone that it was just one of the servants having a bad dream. Soon everyone returns to bed except Jane, who returns to her room and gets dressed. Soon after Jane is sure everyone is back to sleep Mr. Rochester knocks on her door and brings her up to the room where Mr. Mason was sleeping. Mr. Mason had been stabbed and so Jane stayed there to wipe the blood while Mr. Rochester went to get the surgeon. Mr. Rochester tells Jane that it is very important that Mr. Mason doesn't speak. Having said this to Jane Mr. Rochester leaves and Jane is left alone with Mr. Mason.
