It was her generous Tony's work.

She blessed it, and liked the youth the better.
During the stay of Mr.Arthur Rhodes at Copsley, Sir Lukin came on a visit to his wife.

He mentioned reports in the scandal-papers: one, that Mr.P.D.would shortly lead to the altar the lovely heiress Miss A., Percy Dacier and Constance Asper:--another, that a reconciliation was to be expected between the beautiful authoress Mrs.W.and her husband.
'Perhaps it's the best thing she can do,' Sir Lukin added.
Lady Dunstane pronounced a woman's unforgiving: 'Never.' The revolt of her own sensations assured her of Tony's unconquerable repugnance.

In conversation subsequently with Arthur Rhodes, she heard that he knew the son of Mr.Warwick's attorney, a Mr.Fern; and he had gathered from him some information of Mr.Warwick's condition of health.

It had been alarming; young Fern said it was confirmed heart-disease.
