Myra stayed with him past curfew and was thrown out of the corps de ballet. She survives on the streets of London, falling even lower after she hears that her true love has been killed in action. But, he wasn't killed. That those terrible years were nothing more than a bad dream is Myra's hope after he finds her and takes her to his family's country estate.
