    Judy Jones’s character doesn’t evolve much over the course of the story. She is a static character who exhibits the same qualities and attitudes from childhood to adulthood over the course of the story. As a child, Judy is portrayed as haughty and insensitive. She is rude to her servant.

    "Miss Jones and her retinue now withdrew, and at a proper distance from Dexter became involved in a heated conversation, which was concluded by Miss Jones taking one of the clubs and hitting it on the ground with violence."

    Judy courts different men and toys with their feelings. She gets bored easily, is governed by her whims, and doesn’t think about Dexter’s feelings. Even in the end, Judy convinces Dexter to break his engagement with Irene and asks him to marry her but later refuses to marry him. Thus Judy remains a shallow, self-absorbed, and immature person across the course of the story.

    Judy’s unchanging character contrasts with Dexter’s dynamic character, which changes considerably over the course of the story. While Judy is born into a wealthy family and remains rich through the story, Dexter starts off as a poor boy who works as a caddy at a golf course. He quits his job to go to college and start his own venture. Unlike Judy, who did not have to work for her money, Dexter’s fortune changes because of his hard work and determination.
