Hester agrees to the marriage in order to save her family from financial ruin. As the story progresses, Hester struggles to cope with her unhappy marriage and the constant abuse from Mr. Fenton. She finds solace in her friendship with Edward, who remains devoted to her despite their forbidden love.
