    The second interlude is on the innocent and joyful lifestyle of eight-year-old Jon Forsyte. His parents adore him. He had a perfect youth, with every want catered to. The Forsyte Saga comes to an end with this work. Fleur and Jon Forsyte, second cousins, meet and fall in love, unaware of their parents' past struggles, indiscretions, and transgressions. When Soames, Jolyon, and Irene uncover their children's romance, they prevent them from seeing one other again. Irene and Jolyon are also concerned that Fleur, like her father, will seek to take Jon completely once she has him in her grip. Regardless of her affections for Jon, Fleur has a very appropriate suitor in Michael Mont, the heir of a baronetcy, who has fallen in love with her. Fleur's family's standing would rise from nouveau riche to aristocratic upper class if they married. The title comes from Soames' reflections as he dismantles the house in which his Uncle Timothy, who died in 1920 at the age of 101 and was the last of the Forsytes' older generation, had lived as a recluse, hoarding his life like property.

    After The Man of Property, Galsworthy digs into Irene's newfound acquaintance with Old Jolyon Forsyte (June's grandfather, now the owner of the house Soames had built). This relationship makes Old Jolyon happy, but it drains his power. He gives money to Irene in his will, with Young Jolyon, his son, acting as trustee. Old Jolyon eventually dies under an ancient oak tree in the garden of the Robin Hill house. The second novel is on Soames' and his sister Winifred's marital problems (the title refers to the Court of Chancery, which dealt with domestic disputes). They file for divorce from their respective husbands, Irene and Montague Dartie. While Soames advises his sister to face the repercussions of going to court, he is unwilling to go through the process of divorce. Instead, he hunts and hounds Irene, follows her abroad, and begs her to bear his child, as his father had requested. After Old Jolyon's death, Irene receives a £15,000 inheritance. Irene's funds are managed by his son, Young Jolyon Forsyte, who is also Soames' cousin. Young Jolyon offers his assistance when she first leaves Soames. Irene has built a great bond with Jolyon by the time his son Jolly dies in the South African War.
