She is the beautiful and proud daughter of the Melih Bey Entourage. Rebelling against her mother Firdevs Hanım's flighty, pleasure-seeking life and bad reputation, she wants to take refuge in an honorable and wealthy marriage. She accepts the marriage proposal from Adnan Bey, who is her father's age, with the hope of changing her social status and escaping her mother. However, after marrying, she feels that the magnificent mansion does not satisfy her and that her womanhood and youth are being wasted. This feeling of emptiness begins to draw her toward Adnan Bey's womanizing nephew, Behlül. After becoming completely swept up in the whirlwind of a forbidden love, she is torn between her moral values and her passions. When she learns that Behlül will marry Nihal, her pride and sense of vengeance drive her toward irrevocable, destructive decisions and a tragic end.
She was born into the family known as the 'Melih Bey faction', famous in Istanbul and associated with gossip. Her mother's neglect of her husband and the indirect cause of his death created a deep rebellion and disgust in Bihter's soul. Despite vowing not to resemble her mother, over time she proves unable to escape repeating her mother's fate and weaknesses one-to-one.
