Their love is perfect and beautiful, she is his muse and he her great love. Sadly the landlord doesn’t accept the fruits of love as payment and Armand is skint. This predicament forces Venus to go out and work. Initially taking work as a model, the comely Venus is very soon offered money to spend time with an elderly gentleman. Upon hearing this Armand flies into a rage, accusing Venus of betrayal.
