The Marriages by Henry James. This story is about the attitude of Adela who do not like the presence of Mrs. Churcley that will replace her mother positions who had died six months earlier. "When she knocked at his door late in the evening he was regularly not in his room. It was known in the house how much he was worried; he was horribly nervous about his ordeal. It was to begin on the 23rd of June, and his father was as worried as himself. The wedding had been arranged in relation to this; they wished poor Godfrey's fate settled first, though they felt the nuptials would be darkened if it shouldn't be settled right"
