And Heathcliff becomes a wealthy and respectable man who is out to get revenge on Catherine. He marries Edgar's sister but this only causes Catherine much more pain. As a result Catherine dies giving birth to her child leaving Heathcliff alone. He then spends several years longing for Catherine and wishing for his own death.
