She meets Roderick Vaughan who sees her naive vulnerability and convinces her to run away with him. Vaughan knows that the family horror of public scandal will lead to a wedding, and so it does, despite the fact that he is vulgar and ill-bred. After the wedding, she discovers she is married to a bully and can't escape him. She meets Basil Everett and finds a person who wants to love her as she is. Ultimately, she is bound by England's divorce laws, unless she and Basil can find a way to escape them.
