“She’s so stubborn!”

Marilyn, standing nearby, felt a bit uneasy but then considered that Angela did make a valid point.

University students should prioritize their studies, and many get married after graduation.

Moreover, it was a law set by the state. Could there be an issue with the state’s regulations?

As the saying goes, educated people tend to have logical arguments.
