Plot[edit]

Sila lives with her father and her stepmother and loves her cousin Adeel. Her parents dislike that she is close to her aunt, Adeel's mother. Sila rejects a proposal to marry her stepmother's nephew. Eventually, she runs away from her house when her parents try to force her into marriage. Adeel brings her back home, and her father gets her married to Adeel the very next day. The two of them move out after this and start a new life. Adeel treats Sila cold-heartedly, but with time, she wins him over. However, she suddenly falls ill after hearing about her father's demise. Adeel confesses his love to Sila, and eventually, she gives birth to their son Affan. Adeel loses his job and struggles to find another. Sila starts working from Ahmer's company to help Adeel. Zoya, their neighbour, assures Sila that she will take care of her home and son so that Sila doesn't have to worry. Instead, Zoya starts an affair with Adeel, and Affan is left alone with her mother, who doesn't bother to check on the crying and ill child. Sila heads for home when she sees Adeel and Zoya together. She rushes home, but Affan has died. Affan's death shatters Sila, who blames Adeel for her kid's death and leaves his house. Sila is back at her parents' house, living with her stepmother, and is ready to accept and inherit her late father's wealth. Sila gives birth to a baby (of Adeel), and she names him Affan. Sila decides not to tell her only child about his real father. Five years later, Sila is now successfully in charge of her late father's business and expanding her business with the help of family friends, Nabeela, Sami, and Ahmer, as well as the support of her stepmother.

Meanwhile, Adeel proposes to Zoya, who accepts, but they go through a rocky relationship with no children due to Zoya's fertility issues. Adeel's company is acquired by a new management team headed by Ahmer and Sila. Adeel meets Sila and asks for Affan's custody, but she refuses. Meanwhile, Ahmer, who hopes to marry Sila, prepares divorce papers for Sila and Adeel's separation, but Sila can't get herself to sign the papers. Zoya visits her and apologizes to her. Zoya confesses that it was she who created the rift between Sila and Adeel. Zoya falls on Sila’s feet and begs for forgiveness. She says she has wronged both Sila and Adeel, and she can’t turn back the time.

Ahmer, Sila, and Afaan drive to the park together. Sila finds Adeel standing there. They reconcile.
