HURRY PLEASE THE BOOK IS LYDDIE Near the end of the chapter 16, Lyddie isn’t feeling well, and Mr. Mardsen asks her to wait when the others leave. “Let me go! She wanted to cry. She tried to pull back from him, but he clutched tighter….she raised her booted foot and stomped her heel down with all her might”

What can you infer Mr. Marsden is trying to do? What do his actions suggest about his character? Cite textual evidence to support your answer.

Answer:

Mr Marsden is trying to sexually abuse Lyddie.He is an abuser of women(a womaniser) and seems desperate for what he's doing,either nobody wants to associate themselves with him can be the reason why he's behaving this way or he does this out of lust and greed because as he grips at Lyddie,it shows that he's desperate for what he seeks.
