At just 21 years old, Iris Bellamy became a widow, and now, five years later, she finds herself trapped by the constraints of her late husbands will. If she remarries, she risks losing everything—shed be left penniless. The irony? If she were to marry a wealthy man, her claim to her husbands estate would no longer be vital. Yet, the rich often come with their own set of flaws, while the men who truly capture her heart are as broke as church mice. What path will Iris choose in this tangled web of love and financial survival? - Summary by ToddHWCopyright Culture and Heritage classics 戯曲・演劇 社会科学 科学
