"Adam, you know there was already one person in the family who worried me enough."
Mrs. Cooper continued, "I've never held out any hope for Shelly's marriage or love life.

But now look at this.
Let's not even talk about Georgie Jr.'s mess of a marriage.
That kind of chaos was completely different from Shelly's. They were two extremes, and neither was blessed by God.
Even Missy, whom I'd thought most likely to live a normal family life, was starting to become more like Shelly, busy with her work every day.
