La femme défendue follows François, a 39-year-old man who meets Muriel, a 22-year-old virgin. He repeatedly invites her to fine restaurants and eventually convinces her to meet at a hotel where he plans to see her naked but not have sex with her. However, he breaks his promise during their first encounter. Despite this, they continue their relationship until Muriel starts dating someone else. She confides in her new boyfriend about François, who then contacts François's wife leading to their divorce. When they accidentally meet again on the street, Muriel shows no remorse or intent to harm François.
