Defne is elated and feels there is a chance for her to win Ömer. She goes out and calls Kumru reporting her joy. Ömer goes and asks Hediye for breakfast. He goes back to Zehra. He feeds her breakfast, continuously expressing his love for her. Zehra wants to go out so he helps her put on a cardigan. Once they are done, Defne comes to say that there are files that need care and she is not able to do them alone. Zehra tells Ömer to go with Defne and not worry about her. Ömer goes reluctantly. Zehra goes back to bed.
Canan calls Ömer and realizes Zehra has gone home and tells Koray as well. Çetın helps Canan to go visit Zehra without Salim. Jülide visits Zehra. Ömer is again texting Zehra back and forth annoying Defne. He tells Zehra that he has a surprise for her when he goes home.
Canan arrives and meets Jülide. Then she realizes that Defne has taken Ömer away and calls the office and gets Ipek to spy on them for her. She tells Ipek to keep interrupting them. Ipek goes and takes a file for Ömer. Then she offers to get them coffee. Defne refuses but Ömer accepts. So she goes back again.
Defne tries to get close to Ömer on several occasions but Ipek is interrupting. Koray is also getting upset over Ipek's continuous texting back and forth, not realizing it is with Canan. He thinks there is someone in her life.
Ömer finally gets up and tells Defne that he is going back. Defne reminds him of her dinner for introduction to Company staff. He says he can't come because of Zehra but she insists. He says he will possibly go for just an hour.
Defne goes to her office and is annoyed that Ipek was interrupting but she calls Kumru and says she has prepared this nice dinner and Ömer thinks other people are coming but they are not. So it would be a private dinner for the two of them and she will make her move then. Kumru keeps telling her that she should not do that. Defne justifies her actions saying Ömer and Zehra are not a real couple.
Zehra does not expect Ömer to come anytime soon. Canan tells her you'll never know. The door opens and in walks Ömer. Zehra blooms with joy. Canan leaves them alone. They cuddle and Ömer gives her the surprise. It is a red candied apple. She loves it. They eat it together and talk love. Ipek calls Canan and tells her about Defne's dinner. Canan goes back in the room and Ömer asks if she is staying with Zehra since he has to go to Defne's program for an hour or so. Canan suggests that Zehra accompany him. Ömer thinks it is a good idea but Zehra is reluctant.
Defne is waiting alone at a table set for a few people. She feels this is the night! She turns around and sees Ömer coming holding Zehra's arm. Defne is frozen with spite.
