There she is alone and without money, she also discovers that her husband had a first wife. In that place, she will have to deal with Kendal, the family first-born who was always jealous of Murat because he wanted to be the sole heir of the family; however, Kendal does not have a child who can continue with his legacy since the only one he has is disabled.
