Synopsis
In his fanatical pursuit of power and money, John Glayde, a railroad magnate and financial wizard, neglects and all but abandons Muriel, his beautiful wife. Desperate for attention, Muriel accepts an invitation to visit friends in Paris, where she meets Trevor Larode, an artist. Taken by her beauty, Larode entices Muriel to pose for him and a romance soon develops, which causes Trevor's mother to write to John Glayde in alarm. Assessed of the affair, John hurries to Paris to reconcile with his wife, but Muriel, deeply in love with Larode, eludes him and elopes with the artist that night. Furious, John overtakes the couple and threatens Larode with death. Before any threats can be carried out, Muriel steps in and tells John that it is his honor and pride and not love that make him want to kill. Realizing the truth of Muriel's words, John allows her to leave and mourns the loss of her love.
