Plot Jane Benson is a lowly Yorkshire girl who lives simply, caring for her elderly, ailing uncle and not wishing for anything more. She takes a fancy to local doctor Freddie Jarvis, and she persuades him to marry her. Jane soon learns that she has inherited £18 million. She wants to travel across Europe with Freddie, but he wants to stay because he is dedicated to his patients. Jane leaves for Europe without Freddie and is followed by many suitors. Back in Yorkshire, Freddie becomes notorious as the man who declined £18 million, and the infamy hampers his ability to perform serious research.
