start!!!!
page:01 A girl belonged to a wealthy family, but her parents got divorced. Her mother took everything—her father's company, properties, and wealth—before leaving them behind. Her father was left with only three or four properties, which he sold to build a supermarket. Despite the hardships, he supported his daughter's education and fulfilled all her wishes.
The girl was exceptionally smart and completed all her studies on scholarships. To help her father, she worked part-time at a restaurant while pursuing fashion design.
On her first day of class, she became friends with Eylul. However, Eylul's friend, Aliyan Doğan, disliked her from the start. As their friendship grew, Eylul helped her get a job at her father's textile design company.
Esra had a simple, modest style—she wasn't modern like the others. Cemre often teased her by calling her "fresh-up," mocking her simplicity. One day, Aliyan made a bet with Cemre, claiming he could make Esra fall for him. Confidently, he said, "She's just a fresh-up girl. I can trap her in love easily."
Continued..... in page02 Page:02 Aliyan began pretending to love Esra. For a whole month, he dated her, making her believe in his affection. However, something unexpected happened—Esra truly fell in love with him. And despite his denial, Aliyan also developed real feelings for her.
After two months, Cemre organized a party. During the event, she humiliated Esra by spilling a drink on her clothes. Then, as a final act of cruelty, she pushed Esra into the pool. Esra didn't know how to swim and struggled to stay afloat.
Murat, Aliyan's brother, and their friend Savash immediately jumped in to save her. But before they could reach her, Aliyan himself dived in. He pulled Esra out of the water, saving her. Without saying a word, he left.
Later, Eylul confronted Aliyan in anger, demanding an explanation for everything.

Eylul fought with Aliyan, and their friendship ended. Heartbroken, she went to Esra's house, where Esra hugged her tightly and cried in her arms.
At that time, the university was closed for a short break. After a week, when the university reopened, Eylul and Esra arrived together. As soon as they stepped out of the car, all eyes turned to Esra. Eylul had completely transformed her—her dressing style, her look, everything had changed. She looked stunning. Seeing everyone's admiration toward Esra, Cemre was furious.
Esra had stopped talking to Aliyan, but after two years, Aliyan finally accepted to himself that he was in love with her. He tried hard to talk to her again.
Their professor announced a scholarship project, and teams were formed. Esra and Aliyan were put together, while Eylul and Savash were in another team. This forced Esra to work with Aliyan. They had to study for exams together, which made things even more difficult for her.
Three years passed.....
Continued...in page 04 Page:04 ,and they graduated from university. Aliyan became a partner in Eylul's company. Through Eylul's father, he requested to hire Esra as his personal assistant. Her father agreed, and Esra had no choice but to attend meetings with Aliyan.
Aliyan kept apologizing, but Esra never responded beyond business-related conversations.
One day, they had to travel to Antep for a business meeting. Aliyan planned a surprise dinner date for her, where he apologized once again. But Esra didn't forgive him. That night, back at the hotel, she broke down in tears. Aliyan followed her to her room, locked the door, and pleaded with her.
"I never did anything on my own. I was manipulated by Cemre! I didn't accept it before, but now I do. I love you, Esra. I can't live without you. How long will I suffer this punishment? One year? One month? Or forever? Please, forgive me!"
Esra cried and begged him, "Please let me go! I want to return to Istanbul!"

The next day, when they returned to Istanbul, Esra submitted her resignation. She refused to work with Aliyan anymore and left to work at her father's supermarket. One day, while she was loading goods at the mart, Aliyan arrived and said, "Come with me, Esra."
"I'm not going anywhere. Leave," she said firmly.
Aliyan ignored her refusal. He lifted her onto his shoulder while she screamed, "Put me down!" He took her away and somehow convinced her. They reconciled, and their friendship was restored.
A year later, Aliyan's mother forced him into an engagement with a girl named Deniz. On the day of his engagement, Esra found out about it and rushed to the event. The moment she saw Aliyan, tears welled up in her eyes. She turned to leave, but Aliyan grabbed her hand and took her to his room.
"I'm sorry, Esra. Please forgive me. My mother is forcing me into this!"
Deniz overheard their conversation, and the engagement was called off.

Heartbroken, Esra left Istanbul with her father and moved to Antalya to handle the new textile company her father had established. Aliyan thought she had left Turkey for good.
When Esra returned after some time, an unexpected problem arose. Her ex-boyfriend—the one who had abandoned her—came back, seeking revenge for the slap she had given him in the past. He was now married but needed some products from the supermarket. He warned Esra not to tell anyone and demanded that she deliver the products herself.
Esra, not wanting to involve her father, agreed and went to deliver them at night. However, it was a trap. She was drugged and kidnapped.
For five days, she was held captive…
