The fault Mr. Darcy, in "Pride and Prejudice," place on Jane with the purpose of separating her and Bingley was:
He said that Jane was too indifferent.
Where does Mr. Darcy say that?
Mr. Darcy tells Elizabeth he believed Jane to be indifferent to Mr. Bingley in the letter he writes her after they argue. Darcy had proposed marriage to Elizabeth, but she refused his hand. One of her reasons was the fact that Darcy separated her sister and Bingley.
Darcy then writes the letter to explain he thought Jane was indifferent, that is, that she did not like Bingley the same way he liked her. Here are the passages where Darcy states that:
- That I was desirous of believing her indifferent is certain—but I will venture to say that my investigation and decisions are not usually influenced by my hopes or fears. I did not believe her to be indifferent because I wished it;
- . . . I do not suppose that it would ultimately have prevented the marriage, had it not been seconded by the assurance that I hesitated not in giving, of your sister’s indifference.
With the information above in mind, "indifferent" is the best option to complete the sentence.
