Did she love Lew Lauderdale, Jane wondered - Lew, handsome and debonair, who had millions - or did she perhaps love John Sherwood, the poor young man with the kind grey eyes who worked in the office with her? If she married Lew all the girls would envy her. But was Lew going to ask her to marry him - or would he offer her something else?

The day before the banquet to celebrate the firm's fiftieth anniversary, Jane learned her real feelings, when she saw the ominous shadow of that hand and arm on the ground glass partition, with the barrel of a pistol pointing straight at Sherwood's unconscious back! Jane's brave action saved the firm from disgrace and brought her the desire of her heart.
