Enjoyable if not memorable. Poor American-Chinese girl goes to Singapore to meet family of beau . . . she doesn't know he is from a billionaire family. His mother rejects her. Tears, drama, our American girl's mother has a disreputable past. American girl (who is a professor of economics) gets courage, stands up to the Singapore dragon potential mother in law. Walks out. Happy ending as beau gets on plane and proposes again, apparently with mom's blessing
Excellent start . . . orphaned girl with a knack for chess, taught by janitor, harsh orphanage despite its courtly look.
