Recently, an unusual person arrives at Wildfell Hall Manor, near the village of Linden Carr. She turns out to be Helen Graham, along with her young son Arthur. By impression, the arrived Englishwoman creates a halo of mystery around her person, which makes the team interested in Miss Graham, which allows Helen to blend into the village atmosphere.

Gilbert Markham, who was close to Eliza before Helen’s arrival, is no exception in this regard. After the widow’s arrival, Gilbert’s gaze shifted to Helen. Elisa could not forgive this and, insulted by the change of friends, begins to spread unflattering rumors related to Helen’s persona. Thanks to these rumors, Helen’s reputation begins to falter, as many people begin to believe them.

Gilbert himself believed them. It was he who believed the news that in addition to him, Helen is being courted by Frederick Lawrence, whom Gilbert considers his friend.
