Absolutely not. This is just a story where we glorify a "nice guy" who is trying to woo a woman that he doesn't deserve because he wants her money. He gets spooked away by a ghost or, potentially, the main "love" interest's actual love interest. I personally hope it was the latter. So, Irving gets points for that option but loses a lot for misogyny.
