Mirabeth Austen is the daughter of the late Duke of Wellington whose beauty was greatly admired by London men. She is a debutant who catches every men’'s heart and is the source of the envy of every girl who attends the party. However, Mira, as Mirabeth was called, had often come to parties hosted by London socialites. And no man has seriously proposed to her. There were only a few who offered him to be a mistress. All because Mira did not have a dowry. Even though her father was a Duke, Mira's family was poor. The late Duke's habit of drinking, gambling, and visiting brothels bankrupted their family. After the Duke died, they were forced to sell their valuables things, there were even only three maids helping them out. After all, Mira must find a suitor who has the money to sponsor her two younger sisters who will also be debuting. Therefore, Minerva – Mira's mother – decided to match Mira with Mr. Henry Johnson.
