For me as the audience I only want her to stand by Ayra genuinely for the right reasons. Because I think that will sort of make up for what she did to Ayra in the past - the contract, getting her fired and just generally aiming to break Zaid/Ayra up. Not to mention her standing by Asif when Ayra came to plead with him to stop the harassment. So for me to believe in continued growth, this shift in her arc is important and it’s important it happens for Ayra’s sake and not Zaid’s.
I also think Zaid’s influence and MJ being in love will keep her more calm and collected as a person generally. Yes change doesn’t happen overnight and MJ is a work in progress but for them to be compatible, I think some alignment of their moral compass is needed. Zaid isn’t okay with unethical things, deceit etc. But for the most part she doesn’t have to completely change her personality - her bluntness for example is part of it, so is the vanity and confidence. So those are fine.
Also Zaid is not a saint either. He’s deeply flawed as well and between that two, at least MJ has a spine and is the more likeable one despite the flaws. So it makes total sense for two flawed people to find happiness together and for it to happen this messily 👍
