Summary
Of all the Bridgerton brothers, Benedict was perhaps the most melodramatic when plagued by matters of the heart, so Colin came into the night prepared to counteract any sulking and brooding with some lighthearted teasing and jokes. He did his best to not let his domestic bliss show and omitted any and all mentions of Penelope and little Elliot in conversation. He certainly had to bite his tongue most of the night to stop himself from waxing poetic about his beautiful wife or bragging about his adorable son, but Colin was nothing if not a gracious, thoughtful brother.
He hadn't prepared for a discussion on keeping mistresses, for God's sake.
OR
Colin leaves his night out with his brothers and friends feeling unsettled after their talk about mistresses, and rushes home to tell Penelope everything.
