Lost Angel 3

And so it's back to blogging !!!! :D
In this post I'll complete from where I've stopped till chapter 30... here goes nothing :P :

-Hilda recovers and decides to move back to London; they move into a flat under Mabel's. Hilda realizes she's pregnant, but loses the baby. Ashamed and a little dismayed because she had prayed to God, Hilda threw her cross.
-Ellen feels out of place in London, but still makes friends with her neighbor, Lucy. Lucy encourages Ellen to go to church and though Hilda doesn't like the idea, she begins to realize that Ellen needs to make her own decisions as to what she'll believe in.
-Jack, Mabel's husband, visits. After he leaves, Percy, Mabel's first son, wants to join the army, but is too young to. Mabel sees her elder son, Percy, as 'the good one', and Billy as 'the bad'.
-Gertie, after the fiasco at her farm (which she sold), had joined the army. Her father's death left her well off and she doesn't know what to do with the money.
-Hilda receives a telegram carrying the news of Doug's death. Ellen loses whatever faith she had. but when a 'median' approaches Hilda, claiming to have seen Doug alive in a vision, Ellen finds herself hoping again, despite Hilda's obvious scorn towards 'visions'.
-Gertie finds a house in Hampshire and Hilda and Ellen move in. Not long after, Mabel and Billy join them.
-Billy discovers a love for horses, and finds himself a job as a stable boy. Though Ellen tries to ignore it, she feels annoyed that Billy is more interested in horses than her.
-Doug finds them and describes how he had lost his memory after a shipwreck. The crash had left his back damaged, and so he couldn't go back to fight in the war.
- Ellen now tries to find belief in fortune telling, but only gets a vague answer from a fortune teller. on the other hand, she's also more curious about the facts of life, but Hilda is still too stubborn to acknowledge that her daughter's growing. So Ellen finds out from her friend Sheila.
-Mabel and Billy return to London as soon as Mabel finds out that Jack is coming back, but Billy would prefer to stay. Doug, Hilda, and Ellen soon follow them, but Doug, like Billy, would have liked to stay, so he promises himself that they'd live in the country again.
-Hilda decides to work again, since Doug's back left him unable to.
-Jack finally agrees to send Billy back to Hampshire, leaving Ellen heartbroken, and upset. Percy tries to comfort her, and realizes some feelings for Ellen.
-Gertie had found someone like her, a woman named Maureen, and now they were together. Maureen doesn't seem to care much for Hilda and Ellen, but Gertie does, even for Doug, and she wants to help them. She seems to have an idea, but still isn't sure about it.

Questions !!!!! :) 
-How do you think Gertie will spend her newly found money?
-Why do you think Mabel prefers Percy over Billy? And how can that affect her sons?
