There, she meets the rich and handsome Allan (John Stuart), whose father owns a mill. They take a liking to each other and spend some time alone, all the while trying to keep their fling a secret to escape its societal consequences. The plan eventually backfires, however, and Fanny's parents find out about the affair, confronting Allan's father and demanding that he force his son to marry Fanny.
