Maxton Hall – The World Between Us

An explosive rumor shakes the lacrosse final: Graham Sutton is having an affair with a student. As Ruby works towards her scholarship exams and James hopes for justice through his mother's will, the lovers suffer yet another setback. Have they underestimated the threat?

Mortimer's unexpected return interrupts a romantic evening at the Beaufort Villa. What begins as a dangerous confrontation takes a surprising turn. But then Ruby receives a message from Alice Campbell that threatens to destroy her Oxford dreams.

James' courageous appearance at the gala has consequences: his father, Mortimer, forbids him to contact Ruby. To protect their love, they both decide to keep their relationship a secret. But Elaine's invitation to a White Party threatens their secret.

An intimate moment in the photobooth leaves Ruby in doubt. But she has no time for emotional chaos as the Campbell Gala is just around the corner. When disaster strikes during the event, James risks everything to save Ruby's big night.

Finally, the time has come: The interviews at Oxford are about to begin and Ruby's dream is within reach. She's in her element - if it weren't for her roommate James. A distraction she doesn't need. The two try to avoid each other, but it doesn't take long before the tension between them explodes.

The greatest high is followed by the lowest fall. The fundraiser is a great success, the letter of recommendation is secure and: Ruby and James finally got closer. But Mortimer catches them at the worst possible moment. The escalation in the Beaufort house ends with a dangerous threat from Mortimer - Ruby's future is in danger. To protect Ruby, James must do the unthinkable.

After the party at Cyril's, nothing is the same anymore. Rumors are spreading and Ruby's feelings for James are going crazy. James is pressured by Mortimer and finds himself caught between two completely different worlds. But when the day of the presentation of the new "Young Beaufort" line falls on the same day as the fundraising gala, James has to make a decision.

Ruby and James get closer than ever at the Beaufort Store in London. But a surprise meeting with James' parents brings Ruby back down to earth: She doesn't belong in this world. When a poster of her and James makes her the No. 1 topic of conversation on the next school day, she makes an announcement to James: She wants to cut ties with him. For James, however, that is no longer an option.
