After dating for a year and becoming serious, Rachel Chu, an Economics Professor specializing in game theory at NYU, and her boyfriend Nick Young, who have a modest existence as per their income, are traveling to Singapore for the wedding of Nick's best friend Colin and his fiancée Araminta.
The trip will be the first time Rachel will meet Nick's Asia-residing friends and family; he grew up in Singapore and has only spoken of his family in general terms. As she gets closer and closer to meeting Nick's family, Rachel slowly realizes that he comes from an extremely wealthy background. He has never mentioned anything about this and his life in New York has never shown any indication that his family is old-money and one of the most powerful families in Singapore.
Rachel finds that her time in Singapore is like a fishbowl, especially on the speculation of who Nick, the most sought-after of Singapore bachelors, would marry. She also finds that many people in Nick's Singaporean circle are against her being in his life; at the top of this list is his mother Eleanor; she blames Rachel not only for Nick not returning home a year earlier like he had planned, but also that Rachel might not be appropriate support to Nick's heir-apparent role as head of the Young Corporation.
With some of Nick's friends and family on her side, specifically his cousin Astrid who married outside of their class for love, and her main support in Singapore being her new-money college friend Peik Lin Goh, Rachel must decide whether the situation with Nick's family is worth fighting, or if the price for Nick is too high for her to be in his life in the long term.
