The night before their wedding, Jane and Rochester stay up late and talk. They speak of their future, and of Jane’s troubling dreams. Her last one - in which a strange woman is in her room and tears her wedding veil - is all the more troublesome when she awakens and finds the veil torn on the floor. Rochester assures her everything is fine, and Charlene and Mike are left feeling as uneasy as Jane. For such an important romantic moment as the night before her wedding, we find there is much to make Jane anxious in this chapter.
