When Laila discovers she is pregnant with Tariq's kid, she decides to marry Rasheed in order to protect herself and the child, giving birth to a daughter, Aziza, whom Rasheed hates and neglects because she is a female. Years later, when Laila realizes that Aziza may have some talent as a singer, she goes to see her father with this intention but finds out that he has already died. Devastated by this news, Laila decides to leave Rasheed's house and go back to Binnibara alone. However, just before she is about to board a ship, she meets up with Tariq again and they reunite. Laila and Rasheed marry again and this time, it is only for money since Rasheed is still mad at Tariq for what he did to him all those years ago. Once they are married, Laila gives birth to a son, Muhammad, who looks exactly like Tariq. She also learns that if she wants to keep her husband's love, she will need to win him over again. So, Laila works hard to do just that by behaving like Tariq's wife and mother. One day, however, Tariq comes home late from work and tells Laila that he is moving to Karachi to work as an assistant manager at a car dealership.
