Alita lives invisibly with her cousin Hermione, and her Uncle and Aunt, the Duke and Duchess of Langstone. Due to some shameful scandal in the past, she is not permitted to meet guests nor to be seen outside the family castle. The family's fortune has dwindled, so they are delighted to hear that American multi-millionaire Clint Wilbur has bought the neighbouring mansion. They hope that he will marry Hermione, as well as purchase some of the magnificent horses that Alita has bred for them. Clint Wilbur wants the horses, but wants to get close to Alita as well!
