Osman was a poor young man who turned to a life of crime, but later became a wealthy man through his success in business. Osman, who is deeply devoted to his daughter Didem, has one greatest wish: to see his daughter married. However, when his daughter runs away from her wedding, Osman's world comes crashing down. Didem, who lives life without thinking, wants to start her own business and marry a handsome, wealthy man. Hakan is handsome and wealthy, just as she had imagined. At first, Didem was open to the idea of marriage, but when she argued with Hakan about the honeymoon, she realized she had made a mistake and decided to run away. She slipped out secretly and ran away. She stepped in front of a passing taxi and got in. "Drive as fast as you can, take me away immediately," she said. And so the adventure begins.
