Paramour [27] Adam Théodore Monet

---

Harvey & Adam

---

Simon, growing bored of his marriage to Norah, files for divorce. Norah, who has forsaken her singing career to take care of her three daughters is distraught. Caroline once again urges him to provide for his spurned wife and children - this is not the first family her son has abandoned.

---

After years of studying medicine, Harvey has become a doctor. Furthermore, he has started a secretive affair with a chemist one year his junior - one that both he and Joan were friends with at university. Joan suspects that her fiancé's affection for Adam, who came from France to study chemistry at Oxford, might go beyond the normal bounds of friendship. Despite her suspicions, Joan goes through with the marriage, which proves a fruitful one, as she gives birth to four children over the course of five years.

---

Frances and Robert mourn another child - Archie has succumbed to scarlet fever. Slightly easing their grief are the four children they welcomed in the last five years.

---

Simon, on the other hand, succumbs to alcoholism shortly after his 28th birthday. His mother and siblings are not, of course, exuberant, but they cannot say they have much sympathy for a man who abandoned four daughters and two women, ruining the reputation of one and the career of another.

---

They are, however, more distraught about Roger's death of tuberculosis - gentle, sickly, and with a great sense of humour, he was the kindest of the Edwards men. The disease also takes Violet, the mother of Simon's first daughter. Minnie is taken in by her paternal uncle and his wife.
