Synopsis
After doctors tell her that a pregnancy could kill her, Rhea Woodley offers her husband Martin a divorce, so that he can find someone with whom to lead a normal married life. Martin turns her down, however, and so, to give him his freedom, she pretends to be in love with Wesley Strange. As a result, Martin obtains a divorce, while a depressed Rhea goes to a sanitarium. Doctors there agree that the only way to save her life is to let her care for a motherless baby. Meanwhile, Martin discovers in Rhea's diary that her affair with Wesley had been just a ruse. He rushes to her, and they decide to get married once again and to adopt the baby for whom Rhea has been the surrogate mother.
