Ayşe cries and says you are the people in my life whom I most trust, how could you lie to me. They realize that she has found out that their marriage was based on a contract.

Ömer is shocked. He just tells her, it had to be done. Ayşe says I thought you loved each other. Ömer says do not doubt that, I love Zehra dearly and that is not a lie. Zehra also says I loved Ömer and still love him. Ayşe will not be appeased and leaves in anger. Zehra wants to go to her but Ömer stops her and tells her he should talk to her.

Bahşende sees Ayşe and tries to find out what is going on, but Ayşe just goes into her room. Ömer goes to her and tells her how he cares for her and asks her to trust him. He cannot bring himself to tell her about her sickness. Ayşe feels completely betrayed. Ömer leaves.

In the bedroom Ömer feels miserable. Zehra tries to console him saying he is a wonderful brother and should not doubt that for a minute. Ömer feels Ayşe will never for give him. Zehra says she will be beside him until this matter is resolved and that the divorce discussions can be held for later as Ayşe would not be able to handle it at this point.

Hediye has not cleared away the breakfast table because Cevriye has not had breakfast. She had a headache and is coming later. Bahşende speaks in a degrading manner about Cevriye and she overhears it as she is leaving the living room. Bahşende's bitter tongue finally convinces Cevriye to leave the House. She goes to Sabah asking her to find a decent rental apartment for her. Meanwhile, Canan takes her home to stay with them at Salim's.

Canan tells Sabah Kerem is in love with her. Sabah denies it and says they are only friends and there can never be anything like love between them. Kerem overhears this and is dissuaded from declaring his love. He feels he can no longer be beside her because it is too painful for him and every time she approaches him, he acts cold and distant.

Zehra goes to Ayşe and tells her that she can think whatever she wants about her, but she should never doubt her brother's love for her. Ayşe asks to be left alone. Asya comes so Zehra takes her out to play.

Zehra makes some tea for Ömer to calm him down. Ömer stares at her as she sleeps and then draws toward her yearning for an embrace. Zehra notices his arm around her and lets it be, pretending to be asleep.

Cevriye informs Nihat that she is staying with friends for the night. He tells her to feel comfortable and do as she pleases. Cevriye feels unwanted.

Nihat is receiving unknown calls. In the morning he goes into the study and sees Ömer and Zehra and when he hears what has happened he realizes why Ayşe was crying all night. He realizes that Ayşe has been trying to keep the issue of the contract from him. While the three of them are discussing how to explain the marriage contract and the issue of Ayşe's sickness, Ayşe walks in.
