He is Darcy's best friend. He is so outgoing and polite in society that he makes himself loved very quickly by the rich and poor in the town he arrives in. He falls deeply in love with Jane Bennet, but due to his overly mild-mannered character, he suppresses the interest he has for the girl upon the advice of his sister Caroline and especially Mr. Darcy, returns to London, and falls victim to great heartlessness. However, when Darcy confirms the truth, he returns to Hertfordshire very happily and marries Jane.
