He rents a house for his employer next to that of the Crossland's. When the sisters meet Thomas, they realize that he is the man they both love and secretly wrote passionate love letters to.

When the Morocco box containing the letters is opened, everyone finds that the man has personally destroyed all evidence of his past amours.
