What literary device best describes the connection between rochester's rejection of blanche in favor of jane, and his ordering jewels and taking jane to buy fine gowns after their engagement?
a - irony
b - foreshadowing
c - allusion
d - metaphor

A - Irony

Explanation:

Ironically Rochester should dismiss Blanche as a result of Jane in light of the fact that their relationship is extremely the equivalent.

He needed to make tracks in an opposite direction from Blanche for similar reasons he needed to begin an association with Jane, which is very unexpected.

the present continuous is a verb tense which is mainly used to indicates that an action is in progress at the moment of speaking.  

it is formed using: person + verb to be (am/is/are) +verb + - ing form  

example: i am studying at this moment .

in addition, the present continuous is also used in order to express things that will or will not happen in the near future.

example: i am having dinner with some friends tonight.

the speaker sometimes   uses it   to express that an action is repeated and it causes irritation on the part of the speaker

example: my sister is constantly complaining about everything.
