Chapter 7: Rodolphe's Betrayal

After several months of their affair, Emma told Rodolphe that she wanted to leave Charles and run away with him. She had made secret plans and was ready to sacrifice everything for their love. Rodolphe, however, had different intentions.

Rodolphe did not want to ruin his comfortable life by getting involved in a scandal. He had enjoyed his time with Emma, but he had no intention of leaving his home or risking his reputation. He began to distance himself from Emma, avoiding her and writing fewer letters.
罗多夫不想因为卷入丑闻而毁掉他舒适的生活。他享受过与艾玛的时光，但他没有打算离开他的家或冒名誉的风险。他开始疏远艾玛，避免见她，写的信也越来越少。
The day they were supposed to leave together, Rodolphe sent Emma a letter explaining that he could not go. He wrote that they must think of their positions in society and the consequences of their actions. Emma was heartbroken.
