Eighteen years passed, and Heathcliff spent them building a revenge out of other people's children. Hindley drank himself dead within six months, and his son Hareton grew up in the house his father had lost, unable to read his own name over the door. Isabella escaped to the south and died there, leaving a weak, whining boy called Linton Heathcliff. Heathcliff sent for the child and used him as a hook. Young Cathy, Edgar's daughter, was lured across the moor to the Heights, and the door was locked behind her. She was kept there until she married the dying boy, and by then her father was dying too. When both were dead, Heathcliff owned the Grange and the Heights, every field and every pew. He had won everything he had set out to win, and he found that he no longer wanted any of it.
