The relationship of Robert Audley with Lady Audley and George Talboy in Lady Audley’s Secret is very interesting in the way that they interact with each other. The two characters have not seen each other for years until they meet when George returns to England. They meet up abruptly in the novel. However this does not seem to effect their relationship and Robert starts taking care of his old friend without hesitations. Robert and George are able to pick up where they left off, just as I would with a friend I hadn’t seen in awhile. They spend about a year together before George leaves. Robert is distraught by George’s disappearance and is not capable of moving on with his life. Robert must assume his position of being a barrister. Robert knew that when George lost his wife it was devastating for him to go through which explains why he is so worried. He misses his friend and is taken by surprise by these unfamiliar feelings and is acting accordingly. He could not understand that it was “possible to care so much about a fellow,” and that for George he will “go to the very end of the world” to find him(Braddon 81). Robert has lost all pleasure that was associated with George and will not be regained until he finds him. The narrator shows the internal heartache that Robert is undergoing when he is trying to find George and the reader picks up on their strong relationship. Furthermore, Lady Audley and Robert’s relationship unravels differently in the novel and also intertwines with both of their relationships with George. Robert believes that Lady Audley’s “must tell white lies,” maybe a foreshadowing to her secret (80). Lady Audley’s hesitation in their conversations makes Robert question what she is saying. Lady Audley seems anxious when talking about George and wanted to know why Robert felt “uneasy” about him. The end of chapter 15 ends when “Lady Audley had fainted away,” ending the conversation between the two in an unclear way.
