"What Will He Do with It? — Volume 10" by Baron Edward Bulwer Lytton is a novel likely written during the mid-19th century. The narrative centers around the troubled character Jasper Losely and his tumultuous interactions with Guy Darrell, a wealthy man connected to Losely's past, particularly through Losely's onetime marriage and current desperation, which he seeks to exploit. The story delves into themes of pride, disgrace, and familial connections amid drama, presenting the conflict between honor and the cursed legacy of deception. The opening of the novel introduces the intense confrontation between Jasper Losely and Guy Darrell, revealing Losely’s attempt to regain a foothold after years of decline. Losely, having observed Lady Montfort's somber departure, approaches Darrell with a desperate plea for financial support, heavily colored by disdain and memories of past grievances. As the dialogue unfolds, themes of vengeance, familial loyalty, and interpersonal conflict rise to the forefront. Jasper attempts to assert his claims, which hinge on his connection to Darrell through marriage to his daughter, as he struggles with feelings of humiliation at his current state of poverty. The tension escalates into a dramatic standoff where both characters grapple with the implications of pride, honor, and the consequences of their shared past.
