So that settles that, doesn't it ?" And Brian was forced to admit that, as Betty Jo put it, it did.
"Very well, let us consider some more: Dear Auntie Sue has been wonderfully, gloriously happy in doing what she has for you this past winter,--meaning your book and all.

I can see that she must have been.
No one could help being happy doing such a thing as that.

So you just simply can't spoil it all, now, by letting her know that you know what you know." Brian started to speak, but she checked him with: "Please, Mr.Burns, I must not be interrupted when I am considering.

Next to the prison,--which we have agreed won't do at all,--you could do nothing that would make Auntie Sue more unhappy than to spoil the happiness she has in your not knowing what you have done to her.

That is very clear, isn't it?
And think of her miserableness if, after all these weeks of happy anticipation, your book should never be published.
