I am persuaded that Mrs. Smith suspects his regard for Marianne, disapproves of it, (perhaps because she has other views for him,) and on that account is eager to get him away;--and that the business which she sends him off to transact is invented as an excuse to dismiss him.
Estoy convencida de que la señora Smith sospecha que él se interesa por Marianne, lo desaprueba (quizá porque tiene otros planes para él), y por tal motivo está ansiosa de enviarlo lejos; y que el negocio que le encomendó es una excusa inventada para sacarlo de aquí.
