Editing CM 4.2

=Checkmate Part 4 Chapter 2=
===Plot Summary===
<spoiler>Philippa confronts Lymond sharply over what he did to his mother, likening him to Leonard Bailey. The quarrel quickly takes a different turn and finally Lymond tells Philippa that it is she he loves, yet he rejects adamantly continuing the marriage. Philippa, devastated by his hunchback simile, leaves in a rush. Austin Grey, overhearing the noises, misinterprets the cause and attacks Lymond. After the fight Catherine, who had witnessed it, refuses to see Lymond and he doesn’t want to join her either as his headaches are back, starting to blind him.</spoiler>
