My only fear is what will happen to my children after I die..."

While Faruk was returning to his mansion in Istanbul with his children after losing his only love, Efsun, he was unaware that they would be the victim of the envy of Serap, who came with them. In fact, Serap had come to that house with them at first reluctantly. He did not want to babysit the children of Faruk Gencer, whom he was his assistant, but he could not say "no" to Piraye Beyzade, one of the leading names of Muğla notables.
