"Now listen to me Balca. The only way you can make Serkan yours is if you get rid of Eda. And the only way you can get rid of Eda is through me. But if we act now, they'll immediately suspect me, because they don't trust me. So first, I'll have to earn their trust. We have to create doubts in them about each other."- Defne said to Balca.

"If I know something about Serkan Bey is that he has trust issues, but for some reason he seems to trust Eda a lot. We can start by shaking that trust. If Serkan's trust is shaken, then Eda will turn her back on him. Her ego won't let her talk to him. So we kill two birds with one stone.

"Great. Let's get to work then. You mentioned something about the Spanish mafia?"

"Yes, Serkan Bey is meeting with them at his club tonight."

"You're gonna be there right?"

"Yes, I am."

"Then we'll better get you ready. You need to get his attention and make him notice you."- Defne smiled at her.

"So what are you going to wear?"- Piril asked Eda as she did her make up.

"The green spaghetti strap satin dress"

"Have you talked to Serkan about getting back to your old job?"- Piril asked as she sat on the bed.

"No, I haven't had any time with all the Russians, Anton and Defne drama. But I plan on telling him today."

"Speaking of, what do you think about Defne?"- Piril asked, genuinely curious.

"I don't know, I'm not sure. She seems like she regrets a lot of stuff but her vibe is off. You know I have a sixth sense when it comes to manipulation, but I'm not sure in this one. I just find it suspicious how she immediately had a change of heart."

"I was going to say the same. Watch your back Eda."

"I don't have to. I have you"- Eda smiled and hugged her tight. It was true, it had not been long since they first met, but their friendship had grown really strong with time.

"I have to tell you something though."- Eda smiled as she pulled back from the hug.

"What is it?"

"Serkan..."

"What did he do?"- Piril asked.

"He proposed."- Eda smiled.

"NE?! Are we talking about the same Serkan Bolat right now? Excuse me, he did what?"- Piril said, surprised.

"Yes, Piril. We're getting married."

"Oh my god, I am so happy for you. I still can't believe it."- Piril hugged her friend tight.

It was true, this was something to be surprised about. Eda had opened Serkan's heart in many ways possible that now he was considering marrying her when some time ago, not only marriage but also love were out of the equation. He never thought life would repay him this way because he'd done absolutely nothing good in his life to deserve such a blessing.

His whole life consisted of pain and constantly trying to prove himself to his father. Alptekin never told him directly, but Serkan knew he blamed him for his mother's death. Work always came first for Alptekin, so Serkan learned to grow up, he had to grow up at a young age.

All his experiences as a child closed him off as a person. That was of course until Eda walked into his life and managed to collapse his walls down. He never received love as a child, but she patiently taught him how to love and showed him how it was like to be loved.
