Sarah is left to be raised in a boarding house for noble maidens run by Miss Minchin, a cruel, selfish, and heartless woman.

On Sarah's birthday, news arrives from India that her father, Captain Crewe, has died.

Mr. Carissford and his servant, Ram Dass, painstakingly sweep London in search of Sarah.

When they finally find her, they rescue her from the boarding house and inform Sarah that she has inherited her father's riches.

Now, as part owner of her Father's powerful diamond business, Sarah returns to her prior status as a lady of great wealth.
