Summary
Marie Pasque, known as Simplette, lives in an uneventful life in her Provence village.
Her godmother, Madame Rouvière, is fond of her and desires only that she marries
her nephew, Robert. When she dies, Rouvière leaves her fortune to Robert
on the condition that he takes Marie as his wife. Unfortunately, Robert is already

to marry Marie, but as soon as he has received the first half of the inheritance he returns
to his former mistress. Marie is still in love with Robert, and she uses the other
half of Madame Rouvière’s inheritance to help her husband’s company survive another
financial crisis. When he hears of this, Robert decides to return to Marie - but
he arrives too late....
