Publicly abandoned at the altar by her scheming fiancé Richard, Jenny Thorne refuses to let her greedy relatives steal her inheritance. Desperate to produce an heir to fulfill a trust clause, she offers cash to a charming bar companion to pose as her kept lover. What Jenny cannot suspect is that her supposed pauper is actually the reclusive titan commanding the multi-billion Slint conglomerate, indulging in an undercover disguise.
When the Thorne dynasty ambushes Jenny at a grand banquet and attempts to strip her assets, she strikes back by exposing their fraudulent accounting records. Before the corrupt relatives can retaliate, her fake lover arrives with Wall Street power brokers, freezing the family's credit lines on the spot. Dropping her own modest facade as an elite market short-seller, Jenny teams up with her billionaire partner to completely dismantle the Thorne empire.
