Secretary Millie searches for a husband and accepts Frank’s proposal even though she doesn’t really love him, because he can “support [her] nicely.” When Frank’s sister Helen falls ill, Millie steps in to care for her household, including 2 young sons. At the end of a very busy day, Millie asks Helen how she can do it, and Helen says only “real love” makes it bearable. Realising she doesn't love Frank enough to do this, Millie breaks her engagement and will keep her office job until true love appears.
