“Ferit and Arşe’s Bittersweet Day, Hande’s Painful Secret, and Azade’s Determined Plans”
Ferit asked Arşe why she had called him over, saying he wanted to talk about them and their love. Arşe replied that they would talk tomorrow, but Ferit insisted that no matter what happened, he would love her and wanted them to be together, his gaze meeting hers as tears welled up in her eyes. Ferit eventually fell asleep with his head on her lap while she gently stroked his hair.
The next morning, Ferit apologized to Arşe for showing up at her place drunk. Arşe explained that she had called him because of their divorce, making him sign the papers after a long hesitation before walking away. She stopped him, asking if they were really going to end things like this without even looking at each other. Ferit replied that he only did what she wanted by signing and could not do anything else.
Arşe then suggested they could have fun and celebrate their divorce by doing something new to remove the resentment from their hearts. Ferit remarked that she is completely different, while Arşe just smiled at him. At the mansion, Sinan tried to have coffee with Azade, but she sounded upset. Before he could explain where he had been the night before, Azade received a call and left abruptly, leaving Sinan concerned.
Arşe and Ferit spent the day having a picnic in the park. Ferit could not believe she was celebrating their divorce with a picnic. Their hands brushed together, and Ferit said they could still be together, but Arşe told him to focus only on the present and enjoy the moment, Ferit silently watching her.
Meanwhile, Hande visited the hospital with her parents. The doctor told them her X-ray showed no issues and asked if she still could not remember anything.
Pretending, Hande claimed that trying to remember made her head hurt. The doctor assured her it would improve with time but revealed another serious finding from the tests: tissue had been discovered in her uterus, and because of this, she might not be able to get pregnant, shocking everyone.
Back at the picnic, Arşe and Ferit laughed and enjoyed each other’s company. In contrast, the Varoğlu family’s ride home was heavy with sadness. Hande wept, and Hussein assured her they would consult other doctors, even to the end of the world if necessary. Zümrüt asked him to stop the car, got out, and began walking away.
Hussein ran after her, asking to go home, but Zümrüt angrily told him to forget about home, reminding him he promised that after Hande was discharged, he would do the right thing. She urged him to pay for his crimes, saying she no longer wanted to live in fear for her daughter’s life. Hussein asked if she still intended to send him to jail given Hande’s condition, and accused her of caring more for Arşe than their own daughter.
He then claimed that the person who k!lled Baha had already surrendered and were only trying to extort him, because he had never ordered a murd£r. He swore he only wanted to protect his daughter and warned that Ferit should be afraid of him, not her. He also said he was thankful Hande had lost her memory.
Just then, Hande stepped out of the car, telling them she remembered everything, shocking them. Hande said she wished she had forgotten if only it meant she could marry Ferit and become a mother. She bitterly asked Zümrüt if she was happy that Arşe was acquitted, because she was not, breaking down as Zümrüt comforted her and Hussein looked on.
Ferit drove Arşe home, and they talked about how happy the day had been. Meanwhile, Kerem broke into Arşe’s house to steal the divorce contract and reported to Azade, who could not understand why they were happy even though Ferit had signed the papers. Suspecting a game, she ordered Kerem to bring her the papers so she could act immediately, declaring it game over.
Ferit received a call from the police about someone confessing to Baha’s murd£r. He told Arşe the news, and she was happy to be cleared. Ferit told her she was free, even from him, and congratulated her. At that moment, Arşe saw a truck heading toward them. After the accident, Arşe woke up to find their car veered off the road in a deserted area.
She tried to wake Ferit, but he was unconscious, so she went out to find help with no success. Ferit eventually regained consciousness and searched for her, the two embracing with relief. They admitted how worried they had been, Ferit telling her that if they could not live together, then they would die together.
Back to Hande, she made her parents swear never to tell anyone, not even Ferit or Azade, that she could not have children or that her memory had returned. She threatened to k!ll herself if they revealed the truth. Zümrüt told her to come to her senses, warning her not to lie or play games for fear of God’s wrath.
Hande furiously accused Zümrüt of never loving her and always protecting others. She tried to run away as they chased after her. She went to stand in front of a speeding car, but Hussein pulled her back just in time. Zümrüt screamed her name in panic. Hande cried that they should let her die, warning them they would lose their daughter if they did not listen to her demands.
Later, Arşe treated Ferit’s wounds, and he tried to seduč̣e her. Ferit brought up their divorce again as they stared into each other’s eyes. At the same time, Azade spoke to a lawyer, instructing him to begin the divorce proceedings after receiving the signed papers, and to do it on Arşe’s behalf. Adnan entered the study looking for documents. When Azade asked what he wanted, he ignored her and left, prompting her to follow him.
Sadet saw Adnan, and they greeted each other warmly while Azade watched from a distance, clearly displeased. Hande arrived home with her parents, gave them a cold look, and went upstairs. Inside her room, she opened a box of children’s clothing and began to cry. She remembered when Azade had given her Ferit’s baby clothes and shoes, telling her to imagine her own child in them because she wanted grandchildren soon.
With tearful eyes, Hande told herself not to cry because the woman who took everything from her would be the one to cry instead. Ferit later brought Arşe home. She asked if she needed to go to the police station after her acquittal, but Ferit said he would handle it, though she might still be called for questioning about the man who had confessed. Arşe said she did not understand why Baha was k!lled since he had no enemies.
Ferit replied that he doubted the man arrested was the real k!ller, and it was possible the real culprit was still free. Arşe mentioned that when she checked her phone, all her conversations with Baha had been deleted, and she hoped it would not cause trouble. Ferit assured her he would always be by her side and asked if she would be with him.
Just then, Ferit received a call from Hande, who greeted him affectionately while Arşe listened. Hande told Ferit she missed him, but he said he was busy. She reminded him he had promised to visit her and suggested they go riding together. Ferit refused, saying he was busy. She then told him she had his baby clothes, given to her by Azade, to dress their future child Denise, a name they had supposedly agreed upon regardless of the baby’s gender.
She insisted she wanted children immediately after the wedding. Zümrüt eavesdrops on her daughter while Arşe, who had overheard the conversation, quietly left. Hande told Ferit she had planned to tell him in person but since he could not come, she was saying it now. Ferit went after Arşe to apologise, but she told him it was fine since they were breaking up and had no right to question each other.
