These dandies could be going to their club, could they not be? Lorcan and Alfred are spending some time at a club and meeting up with a friend in this chapter.

“You have not come to see me.” A none-to-pleased Lord Westonbury took the seat across from him.
“How did you know I was in town?” Lorcan had not told anyone that he was returning – mainly because he had not wished for Kitty to know, but also because he was in no hurry to see his blissfully married friend and hear the lecture that he knew he would receive.
“How indeed? I did not even know you had left town until you had been gone a week.” His friend’s left eyebrow cocked. “And the mail service must be especially poor at present for I received no letter.”
Leenie Brown fell in love with Jane Austen's works when she first read Sense and Sensibility followed immediately by Pride and Prejudice in her early teens. As the second of five daughters and an avid reader, she has always loved to see where her imagination takes her and to play with and write about the characters she meets along the way. In 2013, these two loves collided when she stumbled upon the world of Jane Austen Fan Fiction. A year later, in 2014, she began writing her own Austen-inspired stories and began publishing them in 2015. Leenie lives in Nova Scotia, Canada with her two teenage boys and her very own Mr. Brown (a wonderful mix of all the best of Darcy, Bingley and Edmund with healthy dose of the teasing Mr. Tillney and just a dash of the scolding Mr. Knightley).
