Three days before her wedding, wealthy heiress Willa Grant is struck by a car and left permanently paralyzed. She discovers her fiancé Ethan Shaw deliberately delayed her surgery and secretly authorized the removal of her uterus to legitimize his illegitimate daughter Yara. Heartbroken, Willa feigns ignorance, enlists her best friend Sophie, and flees abroad for treatment. She later witnesses Ethan with another woman, Jenna, who moves into the Shaw residence to provoke her.
