Nelly tries to keep informed on Linton's wellbeing by asking Wuthering Heights' housekeeper. She learns that Heathcliff hates his son and cannot stand to be alone with him, and that Linton is very frail and sickly. A few years later, when Cathy is 16, she and nelly are out looking for birds on the moors. Cathy runs forward, and when Nelly catches up with her, she is conversing with Heathcliff and Hareton. Heathcliff invites her and Cathy to Wuthering Heights to see his son. Nelly is suspicious, and doesn't want Cathy to go. Cathy is headstrong though, and heads off with Hareton while Heathcliff walks with Nelly. At Wuthering Heights, Heathcliff tells Nelly that he wants to marry Linton to Cathy someday. The cousins do not recognise each other, but on mention of his name, Cathy flies to embrace him. Linton has become too sick to show Cathy around the farm, and she at first goes on a walk with Hareton, and Heathcliff eventually forces him to go after them. At Thrushcross Grange the following day, Cathy accosts her father about Linton's proximity and asks to know why he kept Linton a secret. Edgar tries to explain, and eventually, though painful, tells Cathy about the complicated history between Linton, Heathcliff, and Catherine. Edgar begs Cathy to not keep in touch with the boy, but Cathy cannot resist sending him letters. After a while, Nelly decides to go through Cathy's drawer where she finds a pile of letters from Linton, and she removes the letters. When Cathy finds out, she accosts Nelly, after which, Nelly threatens to take them to Edgar. Cathy, after a struggle, agrees to let Nelly burn the letters, and never write to Linton again.
