Synopsis
Cennet was abandoned as a baby, and has struggled bravely through life, desperate for the motherly love she has missed out on. Despite her poor background, the young woman has worked hard to become the top student in her architecture class and lands her dream job at a successful firm.
There she meets Selim and he starts remembering Cennet as a childhood friend that he had long since forgotten. Both start to develop strong feelings for one another. But when the CEO of the company discovers a birthmark on Cennet’s neck, identical to that of the baby she abandoned over 20 years ago, she starts to believe that Cennet’s appearance is no coincidence – and reacts not with maternal affection, but a plan to get rid of her from her life.
