At the hotel he is stopping at he meets an adventuress, Zoie la Fevre, who falls madly in love with him. Each time he attempts to leave, the adventuress brings into play all the wiles of her scheming nature and Edgar prolongs his stay. Time after time he has visions of his sweetheart, but the lure of the adventuress proves stronger and he stays. At length he makes up his mind to go and tell Zoie of his determinate action. Zoie pleads for a kiss before he goes; Edgar consents. Before Edgar arrives, however, the adventuress swallows poison, and putting a little of it on her lips, lets Edgar kiss them. Zoie dies before Edgar can release his embrace, and a few moments later the young man, who has become infected with the poison from the lips of the adventuress, falls dead upon the lifeless body of Zoie.
