Aiden Grant holds his university acceptance letter, but is met with cold rejection when he tries to borrow money from his uncles and aunt. On the verge of despair, his childhood sweetheart, Claire Lane, gives him her family's savings, telling him he doesn't have to pay it back. Years later, he returns in glory. The relatives who once trampled on him now kneel and beg for his charity, but he only has one thing to say to Claire Lane: 'Marry me.'
