Zeynep, Kuzey'e öfkeli

Zeynep, who thinks that Kuzey is secretly hiding her marriage from her, is angry with Kuzey. Sami's bringing Simay home, unaware of everyone, affects everyone at home adversely. Zeynep is embarrassed that she opened up her feelings to Kuzey and she is angry with Kuzey for leading her on. She also calls Cemre and reproaches her for not telling her but Cemre explains the details of the situation. Simay tries to rebuild her relationship with Kuzey riding the support of Sami but Kuzey reminds her at every turn that he can never accept her. Simay looks for ways to secure her own future with Kuzey. In the difficult days of Kuzey, Cemre is still closest to him, but Kuzey's attraction toward Zeynep will hurt Cemre the most. Güney, to ease his conscience towards Kuzey, insist on his partnership in his project with Banu. Kuzey gets involved and takes his responsibilities seriously. On the other hand, the ongoing crisis between Banu and Barış changes direction with Ebru's move.

Handan Hanım clearly reveals her dislike of Simay and looks for ways to send Simay out of the house. Simay also makes it clear to her that this is going to be a bitter fight. At the company's party before the New Year, Güney organizes an event to promote the new product. Kuzey is also involved in this organization. Kuzey and Zeynep come together for the first time, days later, at that party.
