Everyone thinks Rhett is nothing but an unrefined ex-con fresh out of prison. His parents dote on the fake heir Holden and dismiss Rhett entirely; even the maid dares to berate him. They believe it was only right that he took the fall for Holden, so forcing him to marry the “disfigured invalid” on Holden’s behalf is a blessing for an ex-con like him. Little do they know, he learned formidable skills from a white-bearded inmate who had served forty years behind bars! Before all the guests, he exposes that he is the true biological son and that he went to prison in Holden’s place. Anyone who calls his woman an invalid will be crippled by him. And Selene stands again, thanks to him.
