Eben, who was born from a previous marriage, had hopes of inheriting the farm. His 76-year-old father married the young and beautiful Abby as his third wife. Abby married the dying old man just for this inheritance. However, she and the elderly Cabot could not have children, and her inheritance rights were about to be lost, so she seduced Eben into having a relationship with her and gave birth to a son. In the process of using and seducing Eben, she developed true love for Eben. Eben always believed that Abby had no feelings for him and was only seizing the farm to give birth to an heir. Abby confessed in every possible way but could not prove her sincerity, so she reluctantly killed her own baby.
