In another part of the world, Gerald receives a letter from England about his eligibility to take over his uncle's estate. He decided to inherit the estate so he could show his father who had neglected him that he could make something good out of his life- nothing could stand in his way.
Deborah meets Gerald after so much expectation and she was shocked that he was a young good looking soldier. Gerald, on the other hand masks his feelings for her with a harsh attitude.
