Timeframe: Jun 01, 1701-Dec 31, 1701

According to Gabriel Letainturier-Fradin:

Dans le courant de cette année 1701, Mademoiselle Maupin eut un remords de l'abandon dans lequel elle laissait son mari. Sa fortune lui permettait alors de faire assez bonne figure, et la présence d'un époux rendrait plus piquantes les amours défendues. Elle fit donc revenir Maupin près d'elle et reprit la vie conjugale, sans pour cela rompre avec les aventures galantes. Son mari, d'ailleurs, ferma les yeux et vécut tranquille, avec la volonté d'ignorer les frasques de sa femme.

As the year 1701 passed, Mlle Maupin regretted having abandoned her husband as she had done. His wealth improved her status and the presence of a spouse would lend an extra spice to her extramarital affairs. Thus she had M. Maupin brought back to Paris and resumed her married life, without leaving off her amorous adventures. Her husband, however, closed his eyes and lived in peace, as he was willing to ignore the antics of his wife.

Apparently M. Maupin died not terribly long thereafter.
