What does Exodus 21:8 mean?

If her master isn't pleased with her and doesn't marry her, he must let her be bought back. He can't sell her to foreigners, since he broke faith with her. Exodus 21:8 - Modern Text Bible

(If the arrangement doesn't work out, the woman must be allowed to return to her family, not sold off to outsiders.)
