Story
editFernanda, Angeles, and Soledad are three beautiful and courageous sisters, very different from each other, but with the same desire to compete for the love of their father, Rodrigo, a successful man who meets all their whims. Since they were very small when they lost their mother in what they know was an accident, they grew up under the care of Guadeloupe, their Nana, and next to Manuel, the son of Guadeloupe, with Fernanda, who has always felt a strong attraction but she has refused to the poor condition of the boy.
Berenice, the evil woman of Rodrigo, who is twice their age and who lives to manipulate and succeeds in becoming the wife of the father of three girls. The new marriage moves and the father becomes a shadow for their daughters. Berenice slowly poisons Rodrigo and his health deteriorates. Angeles, already desperate to not see her father, caught their stepmother and Gregorio, her long-time partner, kissing. In the midst of despair, Gregorio asks his bodyguard, Diego, who will do anything to protect his daughter, to kill Angeles. He goes after Angeles and is ordered to kill her, but he can’t follow through. He lets her live in his secret house where he cares for and protects her. She later realizes that her sisters, Fernanda and Soledad, were worried about her when she does not appear. She further discovers that her father Rodrigo also died in a tragedy.
The lives of the girls are changing radically and have been stripped of all their property, a situation that Gregorio takes advantage of and offers Fernanda care and protection in exchange for being lovers. Fernanda still loves Manuel in silence, but accepts the plan to avenge her father and enters into poverty. Soledad enters a convent to finish high school away from so much suffering. Meanwhile, Fernanda starts a clothing business with the money Gregorio gave to her and continues to support Manuel, who under any circumstance is willing to help them rebuild their lives. It is there, amidst the struggles and hidden affection, that the beautiful love that exists between them is strengthened.
Gradually, Fernanda takes the courage to confront Gregorio and Berenice, search for her sisters, live without chains, and continually love Manuel.
