He treats her with scant consideration, until he received a letter saying that his ward receives a small fortune from a dead relation. Marchez schemes to have some of the money for himself. Henri Paulman is ushered in and asks Marchez for a loan. Marchez is struck with an idea and suggests that Paulman marries Madeline, and, once possessed of her fortune, divide it with him. Paulman agrees, and Madeline, although loving another, is forced to marry Paulman. The latter did not tell his wife that he was already engaged to Jeanne, who, when hearing of the marriage, was determined to get rid of the heiress. Jeanne tells Henri Paulman that if his wife disappears it is simple, to make up an excuse. He agrees, and together they bind Madeline and take her away to a remote spot where they throw her in a deep ravine. The two reckoned without Providence, who'directs the discovery of Madeline," and the undoing of the shameless pair.
