The last paragraph of the excerpt from "Jane Eyre" by Charlotte Brontë supports the narrator’s point of view by indicating the uncertainty and isolation that she feels at the moment. The narrator's response to the offer is dismissive, suggesting that although there are feelings being expressed, there is also a significant internal conflict and a sense of being overwhelmed by the proposal, which reflects her uncertainty about the situation.
