Bella Blair, a snobbish and harsh luxury sales associate, torments her plainly dressed future mother-in-law, Eleanor Ellison. She forces her to buy a defective bag, frames her for theft, and publicly humiliates her. When Leo Jameson, son of the richest man, arrives, he reveals his mother's identity. He then discovers the child Bella is carrying is not his. Bella's web of lies unravels, and she faces the consequences of her actions, while Leo learns the importance of character in choosing a wife.
