Plot
The events of the series revolve around the life of the successful businesswoman Marina Lavrova, who owns a flower boutique. At first glance, her life is no different from others, but in fact, the heroine has a lot of problems: her husband has a mistress, one daughter is distributing drugs, and the other is a real sociopath. And the main character herself cannot be called law-abiding, because she is the most real pimp faced with a problem: one of her charges is found dead. Marina, together with her friend, hides the girl's corpse, and now the woman faces a difficult choice: to tell the police everything or not.
The end of the story left many questions: Marina began giving birth, but the doctors warned her that the child could suffer from a serious illness. The investigator discovers Marina's involvement in the case of the dead prostitute, and the husband learns about his wife's second life.
The sequel will still tell about Marina's life and her problems. The audience will find out how the family will react to the heroine's second life and what will come of it. The creators promised that in the new season the project will become even more provocative, because now it will be possible to “swear and drink with all your might” in the frame.
