Plot

[edit]

María Dolores (Adriana Louvier) is a poor, noble-minded girl with a great talent for making haute couture dresses. When her father is tragically murdered in a robbery, she meets Maximiliano Bustamante (Gabriel Soto), an attractive and honest lawyer who offers to help her. Although they feel strongly for each other, they both have romantic commitments; he is engaged to be married to Maleny Santibáñez (Sophie Alexander), a spoiled and capricious young socialite who doesn't really love him and is cheating on him with Ari (Lenny de la Rosa), her tennis coach.

María Dolores is courted by Julián (Pedro de Tavira), an honest, kind-hearted young man who suffers from a degenerative disease and whom she has always seen as a brother. However, she is deeply in love with Daniel Santibáñez (Flavio Medina), an unscrupulous junior who ends up tricking her into a fake wedding and abandoning her to her fate while she is pregnant.

Daniel marries Ivana Duval (Sonia Franco), a young millionaire who is not physically attractive and cannot have children. Maximiliano ends his engagement to Maleny when he discovers that she is not the woman he thought she was because she has a lover.

María Dolores tries to move on with her life and raise her child, but Daniel continues to harass her to force her to stay with him. On one occasion, when Daniel intents to sexually abuse her, Julián tries to defend her and Daniel ends up murdering him, blaming María Dolores for his death. Ivana witnesses the murder but says nothing because she believes María Dolores to be a wicked woman who coaxed her husband and also had Julián as her lover.

María Dolores gives birth in prison. Daniel and Ivana take her child from her through legal means. Maximiliano takes on the case and dedicates himself to proving María Dolores's innocence. During the trial, the two fall in love, but are ultimately separated in a cruel and painful way for the protagonist.

María Dolores will finally regain her freedom and fight tirelessly to win back her child and the man she cherishes, the one who gave her back her desire to love and to trust men again.
