The narrative centers around Şehrazat Evliyaoğlu, a talented architect who is an integral part of Binyapı, a construction company owned by Onur Aksal and Kerem İnceoğlu. Amid her professional commitments, Şehrazat faces a daunting personal challenge – her young son is battling leukemia and urgently requires a costly surgical procedure.
An Indecent Proposal and Growing Complications
Onur Aksal, a prosperous entrepreneur, devises an unconventional solution to Şehrazat’s financial plight: he offers her the necessary funds in exchange for a single night in his company. Deeply disturbed by the proposition, Şehrazat is thrust into an uncomfortable dilemma as she grapples with her son’s life-threatening condition.
Unforeseen Emotions and Dubai Escapade
Following their initial encounter, Onur’s attraction to Şehrazat deepens, prompting him to orchestrate a trip to Dubai where he makes a similar indecent proposition. Alongside the offer, he doubles the monetary incentive. Şehrazat’s rejection is vehement, leaving her feeling disgusted and enraged, while Onur is left to wrestle with his emotions and actions.
A Journey of Redemption and Growing Attachments

“I love Turkish Dramas! Please bring more on Netflix like 1001 nights turkish series with English subtitles!”
Just recently viewed 1 001 arabian nights, I loved it and I love Turkish series. I am disappointed though that we only got season 1 with English subs, waiting and hope to get season 2 and 3 on netflix. I think Turkish soaps are really aimed at women. I loved keyitt and sura, which was on netflix also. I could watch these all the time. so much better than American and English soaps.
