Summary Fleur Forsyte and Michael Mont are married - her mother is absent and still living in Paris - and for all that she was once madly in love with Jon, who has gone off to Canada and the United States and is unlikely to ever return, she seems reasonably contented. Two years later, they are still happy but have no children, which is of some concern to Soames and Michael's father, Sir Lawrence Mont. Fleur has an innocent flirtation with the poet Wilfrid Desert who is madly in love with her. As a result of his connection with the aristocratic Mont family, Soames joins the Board of an insurance company but has serious concerns about the management of the firm and threatens to resign unless he is given more financial information. Meanwhile, George Forsythe is dying and dictates his will. Michael Mont for his part holds a senior position at a publishing firm that has just sacked Bicket, a packer in the shipping room, for stealing five copies of Desert's latest book. Bicket would like nothing better than to emigrate to Australia but without a reference, can't find work and finds himself selling balloons in the park to earn a few pennies.
