The lover

About this title

Ashwaq marries Khalil, and gives birth to her daughter Fatima. The mayor’s son, Shalabi, throws his net around the wife and convinces her to run away with him. Then, as soon as he leaves her, Khalil’s husband avenges his honor and kills him, so the poor aunt takes charge of Fatima after her father goes to prison. After the aunt's death, the pasha for whom she worked took over her upbringing.
