Mary's father, the miller, abandons his family and flees with another woman, leaving Mary and her siblings to endure the consequences. However, when their mother succumbs to illness shortly after, the children, now alone and unwanted, are sent to the Foundling School for Girls to begin a new life.

When the miller discovers the whereabouts of his children and reunites them with his new family, he feels a sense of relief and fulfillment. However, his desire for a son intensifies, and when Mary's newest sibling is revealed to be a girl, he sets his sights on a vulnerable and lonely young woman named Isabel.

After Isabel gives birth to a boy, the miller believes that his long-awaited son has finally arrived. However, rumors circulate that the miller may not be the biological father of Isabel's child, causing him to lose control. He becomes determined to maintain his grip on his son, and he will stop at nothing to achieve his goal.

The miller's wrath threatens to destroy not only Isabel and her child but also everyone in his life, including his daughter Mary. As the situation escalates, Mary must navigate the dangerous waters between her father's obsession and her own desires for a fulfilling life. Will Isabel be able to escape with her child, or will the miller's wrath ultimately prevail?
