The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from When a Man Marries by Mary Roberts Rinehart: figure.
Jim saw her first. He went quite white and struggled to get up,

superbly indifferent. She glanced at us, raised her eyebrows, and
then looked at the clock.
"More victims of insomnia!" she said. "Won't you come in? Jim,
pull up a chair by the fire for your aunt."
Aunt Selina opened her mouth twice, like a fish, before she could
speak. Then--
"James, I demand that that woman leave the house!" she said
hoarsely.
