Brideshead Revisited V

Julia is very upset and angry.. and so is Charles. Cordelia comes home from Spain and says she will probably take up nursing if there is a war. Then Lord Marchmain startles them by saying he is coming home. He returns with Cara, and he is obviously ill and wants to die at Brideshead. Cara is Italian but she is married for convenience to someone English so she can stay in England. Lord Marchmain has met Beryl Brideys new wife and hates her for being vulgar, silly and overly Catholic. He reckons its unlikely that she will provide an heir and neither will Sebastian, so he decides to leave the castle to Julia. Julia has met Beryl by now and says that she's not as prim and proper as Bridey has made out. She has been friendly to Julia and said that a lapsed Catholic is often nicer than the rest of the family. Julia reckons that she is marrying Bridey for security and money (as she has 2 children by her first husband) but she's not a bad person.
