When he first met Rachel Goldstein, she told him she was a winetaster. She believed that men got scared off if she told them what her true occupation was.
But the news, when it eventually came thru, didn't seem to scare off young Michael. He was a bit surprised of course, but he reckoned he could live with the situation.
He's the owner of "Jeffries department store". He's good-looking, rich, and he asks Goldie to marry him.
