At the heart of the narrative is a father whose obsessive love for money eclipses his connections with his children and his own romantic pursuits. His children s struggles with his miserly behavior form the central conflict, highlighting the tensions between personal desires and parental authority. The story features characters whose secret affections for one another are hindered by their father s controlling nature, as his obsession with wealth leads to decisions that disregard their feelings.
