Adapting Quote by Angela Louise McGurk
““Rob chuckles, “I’m not some sparkly-skinned, jealous, child whose sensibilities are still stuck at the turn of the twentieth century. Eve, I can adapt. If we survived the sixties I promise you we can survive learning to share the most important person in either of our long lives.””
