The Duchess of Devonshire

Sinopse

In 1801, in London, the illegitimate daughter Sophia was never liked by her family. But she learned to plan for herself early on. Starting with raising chickens, then opening a restaurant, setting up a factory, and establishing a bank, she accumulated an astonishing amount of wealth step by step. The envy of the powerful made her have nowhere to hide. She took with her a marriage agreement she had drafted herself and hid in the ducal mansion of the Duke of Devonshire, who was known as the "Unmarried Duke". She had hoped to take advantage of the Duke of Devonshire's reputation to avoid trouble. But unexpectedly, this cold-hearted duke not only saw through her intentions but also changed his mind: "I want to marry you."
