Her marriage is described simply as an accident, that she just ended up getting married. She was much younger than her husband who was in his forties. During her stay at the cottage with the other families, she makes new friends, one of which is also the son of mrs. Lebrun, Robert. On the other hand, Robert has chosen one woman for every upcoming summer to whom he devotes himself as an attendant..

From this perspective, Robert is viewed as quite flirty person which slightly affects the relationship with Edna.
