Manon is also being romantically pursued by powerful local businessman Pierre Delaroch, also of biracial background, and is also supposed to marry a local king. However, Manon, who does not leave either man, desires a passport so that she may go to Paris, to be be free and have equal rights with white French citizens, which she lacks in Saigon. Despite the two other men pursuing her, Manon prefers Bill, whom she meets at a local shop and helps to buy a hat that Dolly had wanted. Manon and Bill spend more time together that day, kiss, and fall in love. Bill, after leaving for Dolly the hat and a good-bye note, marries Manon, despite local priest Father Antoine, a friend of the Harrison family, warning that the marriage may be difficult, given Manon's part-Asian background.
