Every time I get to this point in Dracula, I think about how long it takes to even mention that Arthur will be a Lord.
Some readings suggest that Lucy chooses him because he's the most financially stable option. But, she never bothers to mention that he has a title in her letters, like that fact rarely crosses her mind. It doesn't feel like its at the forefront of her decision making.
It's Mina who mentions it. Not Lucy.
