the more I think about it, the more I agree with what the police officer said a few episodes ago when he told that the dad was greedy and this fraud was enabled because of him. they were upper middle class and they were getting plenty of proposals for maya from their own status. rather than considering them, the father kept rejecting them. she could have lived a comfortable life with any of the rishtas she got. however, the father wanted to upgrade his status through marriage of his daughter. that was the real issue. it wasn't just about comfort for maya but a huge element was himself.
he insulted nael where he deemed him unworthy -- below their financial status and incapable of keeping maya in the comfort that she was used to. as nael said in anger this episode, they were using him. when he had asked for maya's hand, he was told as not good enough and now that maya had a divorce, all of a sudden, they wanted to remove the problem by getting her married to him. nothing about his financial status had changed and it was not like he was doing financially amazing. so he was still not good enough. hence his burning anger. 
some people will sacrifice love for self-respect but not every one of us is like that. nael's self-esteem and sense of worth was broken down by his uncle. how can they expect him to just roll over and accept maya like nothing had happened? his bank manager hired nael because he saw a man driven and ambitious. someone like nael would never be able to swallow such an insult of dad and just pretend it never happened. the love died when maya's father broke him down. did the dad even apologize to nael or try to clear up any misunderstanding? they expected him to show up and marry maya just because they now wanted it --- indeed an insult. so I don't blame nael at all. 
now, if it isn't the father is greedy, so is the mother and in some ways the sister. the marriage broker in the last episode was very blunt but was realistic. as a divorcee, maya's choices were grooms getting to re-marry. this means they too will come with baggage of the past and issues. 
just as any potential groom had to accept what happened to maya, she and her family also have to accept what happened to potential groom. however, mother and sister didn't want seconds and didn't want to accept that maya is now divorced. instead, they wanted to pretend that the event didn't occur in some ways and have maya married to a guy for him it was his first marriage. unless he was madly in love, the chances of that happening in an arranged marrriage market was less. they didn't want to accept that because to do so would be to accept that the family messed up in the first marriage.
so basically this whole mess happened because no one wants to take accountability for their actions.
