モネの「睡蓮」をめぐる親族の裏切りに沈む菜穂を奮い立たせたのは、新たなすみかを与えた亡き祖父の知己で書道家の鷹野せん（梶芽衣子）と、樹が描いた新たな絵だった。覚悟のもと、その絵を意外な形でお披露目した菜穂は、樹を縛る照山の邪心と本格的に対峙することに。一方、菜穂との隔絶に心を痛める一輝には、他ならぬ菜穂の父母から、美術館経営に絡む厳しい知らせが。それは菜穂を再びの絶望に陥れかねないもので……。
When her relatives betray her over Monet's "Water Lilies," Naho is emboldened by the calligrapher Takano Sen (Kaji Meiko), an acquaintance of her late grandfather, who has given her a new home, and a new painting by Tree. With determination, Naho unveils the painting in an unexpected way, and begins to confront Teruyama's evil intentions that bind her to the tree in earnest. On the other hand, Kazuki, who is heartbroken by the separation from Naho, receives harsh news from Naho's parents regarding the management of the museum. The news could send Naho into despair once again.
