"So he's dead set on Maggie.
But what sort of woman is she? How am I supposed to accept her as my daughter-in-law?" Britton replied, "I believe she has her virtues.
She seems modest, courteous, kind, and caring.

"Sanford, maybe you should stay and look after her?" Sanford narrowed his eyes.

"Not a chance! I'll check on her O she's calmer," Maggie quickly replied.
