Mr. Marsden can be accused of sexual harrassment because he puts his arms around Lyddie when he makes her stay late after work, but he does not rape her. Something has happened to Diana because she is pregnant and has to leave the factory. Lyddie "just knows" the father has to be the doctor, but all Diana says is that there's a wife in Concord. We could speculate that it is Marsden because Lyddie warns him that she has written a letter to his wife to tell her what really goes on after hours at the factory and that she will mail it if he fires Brigid.
The best way to find out what happens in a story is to read it! I hope this helps.
