Raised in luxury and then married into wealth, Rosemary had to maintain a classy and suffixed image. Because of her way of life, Rosemary never knew what life was really like, so she never knew what it was like to live without a man to support her. Philip Aslop was Rosemary's husband. He was a very wealthy man who owned his own business. Not only was he a rich man, but also an army officer. He was a very formal man with a very formal marriage. Eleanor Smith is poor. She is also very modest, she knows that to have anything in life she has to work harder than most, to make the life she was born into. Working hard made her very easy and confident. By being with Eleanor, Philip Aslop would become a different person. It would become very informal and open. Rosemary, Elaenor and Phillip all met for the first time when Rosemary saw Elaenor on the street and took her home. Rosemary saw this as an opportunity to do something good for sister women. As soon as Phillip saw Eleanor he was fascinated by her. After Rosmary helped Eleanor, Eleanor found work making and selling hats. Eleanor also begins to live in a boarding house for young women. Phillip found out where she worked and lived and didn't hesitate to follow her. Gradually Eleanor falls in love with Phillip. When Phillip went looking for Eleanor he made her feel special like she was the only one. This feeling ended abruptly when he saw Phillip and Rosemary's wedding announcement in the newspaper. Eleanor broke up with Phillip not because she was one of the other women, which she knew all along, but because it was madness to fall in love with a man who was already taken. Phillip, from the moment he met Eleanor, became distant from Rosemary. Phillip received his orders and moved up the wedding so he could go to war the next day. Phillip was confused about not having Eleanor, going to war, and his deal with Rosemary, but with no choice in the matter he simply went to war. During the war Eleanor discovered she was pregnant. Eleanor moved into an apartment with her friend Josie because they couldn't tell who she was pregnant with. Both Josie and Eleanor would say that she was going to marry Josie's brother who was at war. Eleonora didn't know. when Rosemary was told that Phillip was missing, she was told he was dead but the body was never found. Rosemary refused to believe it, and Rosemary's discomfort became irrational. Some time later Rleanor heard about Philli, cried and became sad but let it go and moved on. When Rosemary was at her worst and had hired a psychic to see if Phillip's spirit was on the other side, Phillip knocked on the door. It didn't take long before Phillip went to see Eleanor. She was pushing her baby in the stroller when Phillip arrived. He immediately knew that the child was his. Phillip could no longer be without Eleanor. He told her to wait for him, that he would come back forever, that he would tell Rosemary that he was leaving her. When Phillip arrived home, he asked Rosemary to go into the bedroom and told her he was going out to be with Eleanor. Rosemary couldn't accept this news and went mad, telling him that if she couldn't have him no one would have him, and stabbed him in the throat. Phillip died and Rosemary went to prison. Eleanor, what.
