Her employer, Edmund Berste, attempts to force his attentions on her, which provokes Berste's wife to become wildly jealous. Constance returns home and establishes her own store, but Berste follows. After Mrs. Berste arrives and denounces Constance before a crowd of customers, Constance is turned out of church and ostracized by her community. Back in New York, Constance lures Berste to her apartment where she has arranged for Mrs. Berste to overhear his avowal of love. In retaliation, Berste hires a woman detective to lure Constance to his hotel room. Clavering, who has been in Mexico, returns and after searching for Constance, bursts into Berste's room as he and Constance struggle. A pistol shot kills Berste and Constance is arrested, but after a jury acquits her, she marries Clavering and returns home. See less
