Fikria bankrupts in while she is working in the London Stock Exchange, she and her friend don't have any money, and her sick grandfather Husain calls her from the hospital and wants to see her before he dies. When Fikria hears that her grandfather is rich and dying, she rushes to Egypt hoping to inherit his money. But he gets better and they spend more time together getting to know each other. When he tells her about his former love, Laila, they start searching for her, and when they find out she lives with her own grandchildren in her villa, they decide to visit her. While there, Fikria falls in love with Adham, Laila's grandson--who is already engaged. But he falls for her too and ends up leaving his fiancée to marry Fikria. While they are suffering New Year's Eve, Fikria's grandfather dies. After that the years fly by and Fikria's own kids grow up and get married and she becomes a grandmother.
