Ömer says what this is all about. Officer Murat says someone has made an accusation against her and they need to take her statement. Zehra says but I have done nothing wrong.

Everyone is devastated. Bahşende tells herself that this girl has made getting rid of her much easier that she expected. Ömer takes Zehra out assuring her that he will be there with her. She sits in the police car looking deeply vulnerable. They drive off.

She also says that this is a big scandal for their family and Ömer should not be seen there. Ayşe holds the fort saying Zehra is his wife and he is were he should be: by her side.

At the station they tell Ömer, Zehra will have to stay until tomorrow to give her statement to the prosecutor. Piton has accused her of giving him money to commit a crime. Ömer realizes that Piton is taking revenge because they had him arrested. Ömer asks to see Zehra. He sees her in the cell. He gives her his coat. He tells her what Piton has stated. Zehra says why would I do that. He kidnapped Canan and blackmailed me. Why would I kidnap my own cousin? Zehra just wants to be sure that Ömer believes her. She says I can endure anything, if I know you believe me. Ömer assures her that he believes her and will do everything to get her out of there.

Officer Murat gives Ömer Zehra's necklace and wedding band. He takes out the wedding band looks sorely pained.

He reminds his grandma that he will never give up his wife.

Ömer goes to the bedroom. He lies on Zehra's side of the bed and looks at wedding photos. He cannot stand it.

In the morning the lawyer arrives at the station. Ömer is there somewhat unkempt. He has spent the night there. They bring Zehra out. She realizes he has not slept and she is concerned for him. They take her to give her statement. Nihat is there to support Ömer. Ömer looks broken. They bring Piton and he loses it. He entangles with him and they separate them.

He says the prosecutor has suggested ten years imprisonment. She collapses. He goes down and asks her to get herself together. That they are going to fight it. He then asks her to look at him and see how he looks to her. He says I am a prisoner like you. As long as you are here, I am also in chains.

Ömer takes Zehra into the bedroom and welcomes her back to her home. She thanks him. He suddenly takes her into his arms. She basks in the embrace. Salim calls and says he has been worried for her. She puts his mind at ease. She then goes to take a shower and comes back changed. Ömer compliments her on looking fine. She talks about her experience and how his presence helped her to get through the ordeal. Ömer says where else could I have been? He then takes her face in his hands and is about to kiss her when Ayşe knocks. Dinner is ready.

Zehra is apologetic for being late. Bahşende is curt as usual. The family sits for dinner. Bahşende again tries to make snide remarks about Zehra compromising the name of the family and the business.

He then goes to Kerem and Kerem reminds him that she is different from the girls he usually consorts with. Teo wants to make a bet with him over making Sabah fall in love with him. Kerem refuses. Teo leaves with his orchid.

Ömer goes into the study and again remembers the words of his mothers and Zehra's on the night of the wedding. He feels confused. He goes back in the room. Zehra is in her pajamas. She brings his pajamas. She asks if everything is fine. He says he is tired and remains somewhat cold. Zehra senses it and goes to bed disappointed. Ömer comes back. She has fallen asleep. He lies beside her staring at her in her sleep. They sleep calmly in each other's arms. He wakes up in the middle of the night and feels her in his arms. He is happy to have her there and falls back into sleep. In the morning, he wakes up and she is on his chest. He remains there. She wakes up too and they remain close looking at each other. He slowly wiggles out and leaves without a word. She is sad. He come back dressed. He wants to say something but she is asleep so he takes his phone and leaves. She opens her eyes gloomily.

Bahşende once more goes into Zehra's room and asks her if she has made a decision. Ömer arrives and overhears them talking in the bedroom. Bahşende tells her the moment she signs the divorce, she will give her enough money to set her up for the rest of her life. Zehra once more reveals that she did not marry Ömer for his money or business. She says emphatically that she loves Ömer more than her life. Ömer's heart stirs as he remains behind the door.
