Paz Roble, a kind, hard-working and honest woman from whom her husband, Fermín, takes her newborn daughter. Fermín has a large debt with some lenders and to pay it he decides to sell his daughter to Mauro Nicoliti. This plagiarism is orchestrated by Geneva, Mauro's adoptive sister. She lost her first-born daughter in childbirth and does everything to replace her dead daughter and keep her husband's fortune. On the other hand, Esteban Villa de Cortés loses his wife and becomes a widower with his three children. Elvira Moncada, Esteban's mother-in-law, holds him responsible for the death of her daughter. After a series of unexpected events, Esteban and Paz meet in the neighborhood where she lives with her family. The chemistry and great understanding that exists between them makes it inevitable that they will fall in love.
After mocking Esteban's attempts at justice, Ginebra told Elvira that she has financial problems. The millionaire offered her support, but the villain ended up complaining about her lack of support in the company and her delay in recognizing her as her daughter. Wanting Elvira to relax, Fobo invited her to a dynamic so that they could both get closer. The love they feel led them to be very close, without imagining that Eder would enter the room and that she would almost see them kiss. Upon knowing that Ginebra has hurt Samara again, Paz did not contain her anger and took advantage of the presence of her rival in her restaurant to give her a painful slap. The villainess also listened to the strong warnings of Esteban's ex-girlfriend. Full of anger because of the slap she received and because of the closeness she has with Samara, Ginebra issued a strong threat to Paz. The villain clarified that this time she would stop at nothing and that she would be able to finish her completely.
