An artist in England is torn between an old flame and the now grown up little girl he has adopted.

When Bruce Sands, a dilettante artist with a history of amorous peccadilloes, discovers that his latest flame Bunny Winston wants to marry him, he seeks refuge at his friend John Woodward's country home, unaware that Woodward has asked Bunny to marry him. Bunny follows the artist to Woodward's estate, where Bruce begins a flirtation with Woodward's daughter Audrey. After Audrey is injured in a fall from a horse, Bruce promises to marry her, thinking that she is on her deathbed. Upon hearing the news, Bunny assumes that Bruce will now be a member of the family and so marries Woodward. When Audrey recovers, the engagement is broken, Bruce returns to town, and Bunny follows. Bruce rejects Bunny and begins his campaign for his next victim, leaving Audrey and her father to console each other.

The wicked Belle gets her hands on Nigel Stanyon, a young man who was about to embark on a career as a minister. She seduces him, empties his bank account and tosses him aside. In the depths of despair, Nigel is discovered by Brian, a wealthy old friend, who secures him a job as an overseer on his family estate. One day Brian embarks on a trip abroad, and Nigel is astounded when he returns home with a new wife—Nigel's old flame, Belle.
