Jane Eyre: Part 4

One month after the proposal the marriage took place. 
They were in the church when, suddenly, a man came in and said that they couldn’t get married because Mr. Rochester had already a wife. He had to admit it; actually, he showed her to Jane. During all the time Jane was in Thornfield, Rochester’s wife was living very close to her but nobody had said anything to her. Rochester’s wife’s name was Bertha Mason. He was cheated by Bertha’s family to marry her. She was mad and she was the author of all the things that had happened strangely, like the fire in Rochester’s bedroom.
Jane couldn’t believe what was happening. Without thinking twice, she decided to leave Thornfield. She took a coach and went as far as the money she had saved afforded. She had to leave it in the middle of the country and she had to sleep on the moor for several days.
She arrived to a village and she fainted near a house. The housekeeper of it saw her and took Jane inside the house.
After some days, Jane woke up. She was at the Rivers family’s house. They were two woman, Diana and Mary Rivers, and a man, John Rivers, who was a clergyman.
