The entire story doesn’t make any sense = Lizzy is secretly a wealthy and savvy business woman who is the powerhouse behind her uncle’s commercial success ! But this is a secret from her mother and sisters as she continues to carry out a parallel life of poverty and “normalcy” at Longbourn.
Lizzy doesn’t want to marry, she wants to be “independent” and to keep her wealth a secret from everyone forever

The story STILL doesn’t make any sense = Lizzy has been repeating a mantra all along about Not Wanting to Marry, and Darcy has been repeating how unsuitable Elizabeth is because of her connections. They have absolutely no relationship or common ground at all, they can perfectly exist separately for the rest of their lives, more so since Lizzy has ghosted Jane altogther and moved away with Charlotte !
