"My little mistress behaved like an angel in coming to wait on me, and cheer my solitude; the confinement brought me exceedingly low... The moment Catherine left Mr. Linton's room she appeared at my bedside... I said her days were divided between us; but the master retired early, and I generally needed nothing after six o'clock, thus the evening was her own..."
I feel this statement foreshadows that since Cahterine is not usually described as an "angel" that she was probably up to no good on those evenings without supervision. Catherine has already been characterized as a rebellious girl who has a strong mind and does what she thinks is right. Within the next chapter we learn that just as the reader would suspect, she was sneaking off to Wuthering Heights.
