Ruchan Korman, who is the matriarch of the Kormans, the wealthiest family of the region, hears of Turkan's gorgeous beauty and decides to wed her to Somer, who is her son. Everybody but Sadik gets exhilarated by the news. The Kalender family starts wedding preparations unaware of the fact that these are the last days of their peaceful life. On the other hand, Derya and Donus study for the university entrance exams. When the first blow that will destroy their life comes upon them, Nesrin is the first one to face it. Sadik's brother, Fatih, comes to get back his daughter whom he has never seen. Turkan gets married with a flamboyant wedding. Nesrin thinks that at least Turkan is happy with her new life, yet she is not aware that they threw her into hell. The course of the Kalender family's life now changes irreversibly.
It's one morning when sadik and nesrin are at the edge of one corner under the tree eating and smiling together, while the children were at the shore close to the beach. They are all happy cause they are one big family,they have no problems and nothing to worry about.
While sadiks phone rang and he picked up his phone to see who is calling turns out it's his younger brother,sadik shakes his head and picks up the phone " Hello brother ".
" Allah thank Goodness you picked up the phone,brother I need your help with some money I'm in debt as my business is running down"Said fathi.
Sadik knew his brother was some kind of a gambler so he hated him,fathi has borrowed alot of money from his brother just to gamble but all went in vain.
" The last one you borrowed from me you couldnt even pay that back and now you need another one?,you kept lying on businesses,do you think I dont know you gamble ?" Sadik tells fathi as he fumes in anger .
Nesrin heard his conversation and shakes her head " That man never learns"... nesrin said has she packed up the table and she went to the kitchen.
Sadik couldnt just leave his brother alone when he needed help so he agreed to lend him some money,hoping to get it back soon. Nesrin came back from the kitchen and sits beside sadik " did you give him?" She asked .
" I have no choice " sadik replied nesrin..
Nesrin smiled and said " your brother never learns you know".
Sadik looked at nesrin and didnt even know what to say cause he's fed up of fathi but the hardest part is he couldn't turn down his brother when he needed help .
Sadik faced nesrin " aren't you going to shop"..
Nesrin stood up and kissed sadik " I should get going now" ...as she faced the kids " kids meet me at the shop"..
The children immediate dropped what they were doing and they followed nesrin to the shop. Nesrin is a trader who sells foods at the market to support her children and her husband.
Here comes a beautiful woman called ruchan korman dressed in a red suit and a black heels,she's one of the wealthiest woman in the country,she came to the market herself to buy some stuffs needed at home cause her maid is kind of busy.
" Hi maam do you need anything?" Nesrin asks ruchan...
Ruchan took off her glasses and faced nesrin " you have a beautiful kids,well I need some food stuffs prepare them for me and let me use my card because I dont have cash with me right now" ruchan said to nesrin as she brings out her card..
Nesrin swiped her card and ruchan foods were packed to her car by donen and derya.. Donen is just 17 years old while derya is 15 years old,they are both still in high school.
" Thank you kids" ruchan tells the kids..
The kids smiled at ruchan and they both went back to what they were doing..
Ruchan was already walking towards her car when she was hit by turkan by mistake. Turkan is a beautiful,smart and elegant young lady,she's the eldest daughter of nesrin and sadik.
" I'm so sorry maam" turman says as she bends her head to greet ruchan.
" ruchan picks up her glasses from the floor and smiled to turkan " no worries young lady" and she entered her car.
Ruchan was in her car looking back at turkan cause she was very young and beautiful. On reaching home,ruchan entered the mansion and she saw a young lady in her home.
" who are you" Ruchan asked as she was furious who the young lady could be..
The young lady greeted ruchan in respect and replied " I'm diana korres,I'm sorma's girlfriend".
Ruchan smiled looking so confused and said " Sorma's girlfriend?"
Diana wanted to reply when sorma came downstairs,sorma is the only son of the korman family,ruchan would do anything to protect her son and keep their family's name safe to the public.
" hi mom" sorma said as he hugs ruchan..
"Hi son,son who's this ?" Ruchan asked..
Sorma smiled and said " my girlfriend ".
Ruchan couldn't bring herself to accept that sorma brought in a girl she doesnt know from nowhere.
Sorma loved diana so much that he would do anything for her but his mother doesnt want her..This world of sorma and diana became tough as they couldn't do what they want .
Ruchan left the visitor's room as she couldn't accept diana as her son's girlfriend. Sorma followed ruchan to her room and bangs the door in anger..
" mom what was that for?" Sorma asked in anger.
.
Ruchan squeezed her face and dropped her bag on the bed " what was what for?" She replied sorma ..
" mom you know what I'm talking about " sorma said..
" oh,sorma I guess you know your marriage shouldn't be a joke right,you cant marry that girl,I can never accept that.
Sorma yells in anger and said " mom I'm old enough to decide what I want for myself ".
" Son,i guess you dont want the company anymore,because I get to decide how everything works in this family,are you going to leave your future for that girl?" Ruchan asked ..
Sorma looked at her mom in anger and he walked towards the door
Diana was at the stairs as she was listening to every conversation,the maid saw diana and asked her what she was looking for,diana said she was looking for sorma,the maid told her to go back downstairs that sorma would come for her if hes done ...
Sorma came back downstairs and told diana to get her bag so he could drop her home.
Diana couldn't hold it in so she told sorma she overheard everything ' sorma I overheard every conversation with your mom" she says as she looked at sorma..
Sorma is still very much angry as she tells diana " you dont have to worry im going to sort everything out"..
Diana nodded her head and replied " okay I trust you babe"...
It was already 9pm sorma wasnt home yet,its time for food,when ruchan couldnt find sorma in the mansion.
" where is sorma?" Richard korman sorma's father asked ruchan..
Ruchan went to the dining and shakes her head " well I don't know " ..
The maid served the food while sorma came in looking so angry...
Richard wanted to stand up and move closer to sorma when ruchan warned her " you are at the dining table,have some manners,finish your food first" ..
Richard sits back immediately as he continues eating his food...
Sorma went upstairs and stayed in his room looking at his window and enjoying the view,when ruchan came in..
" Son,I honestly don't get why you are angry". Ruchan asked sorma..
" what are you making me do?" Sorma asked ruchan..
Ruchan smiled and touched sorma " Everything I'm doing is for your sake sorma,you are a man,your wedding is going to be the talk of the town,whom you marry,what you do,everything is going to be the talk of the town, look at me son,you can only achieve all what you want when you get married to someone more delegent than diana"..ruchan tells sorma..
" but diana is the one I love" sorma tells ruchan..
Ruchan only wanted what was best for her not her son,she wants a wife she could control,she doesn't want her son to be under his wife,she wants to be the controller of both her son,the company and her husband...
" you can marry a girl on contract even tho you dont love her just marry her then the company will be yours,just do what I say my son" ruchan tells sorma.
" So who's this girl?" Sorma asked..
Ruchan smiled and replied " you dont have to worry about that,I have a girl in mind,I already have my men investigate about her background,I already knew everything about her"...
Sorma agreed to marry her based on only contract and business,he never planned on loving any other girl except diana..
