Monira had imposed the bridegroom Gamil [Said Abu Bakr] on Leila because he was her nephew and she was planning to use him to get the money Leila would be receiving from her father. However when Gamil approached Leila during the wedding ceremony she pushed him away and ran out of the proceedings immediately. The press was full of reports about the search for the missing bride's car, which was damaged on a bridge and fell into the water; one of Leila's shoes she had been wearing at the wedding was found in the car. The journalist Wahid [Anwar Wagdi] went to the village where the accident had taken place and found Leila's other shoe. He was surprised by the sound of the enchanting voice of a young girl sitting on the bank singing in a tortured tone of voice. Wahid approached the girl because of her beauty and the sweetness of her voice. One of the people in the village told him she was the daughter of the village mayor [Abdel Hamid Zaki].

Once he saw her he realized she was not the one he had seen on the bridge. Wahid and the girl, who said her name was Farhana, left the mayor's house. Then Wahid learned the girl with him was really Leila, the runaway bride everyone thought had been killed because her loose shoes had been found. Back in Cairo Wahid convinced Leila's father she was still alive by taking him to the farmer's home where she was hiding. At first Leila thought Wahid did not love her and was planning to take her back to the misery she had been fleeing in exchange for reward money; instead Wahid was finally able to awaken the conscience of Leila's father and make him aware of the conspiratorial plans of his bossy wife and her nephew. The basha divorced Monira publicly and Leila immediately went back to Wahid, who was waiting nearby.
