Ten years after the imprisonment of Rómulo Ancira (Ernesto Laguardia) for his crimes, Refugio (Victoria Ruffo) and her sons: Patricio, Edmundo and Ignacio, have been coping with life and the consequences of their good and bad decisions.

Refugio has managed to rebuild her life next to Julian Corona, with whom she has a happy marriage. They have established their home in Coyoacán and share it with Patricio and his daughter, whom is affectionately nicknamed "Petita", since her father has to travel frequently on business. As the years have passed, Petita has had the desire to meet her mother, whom she never saw again after her departure.

Edmundo (José María Torre) lives with his wife Lucero (África Zavala. Due to his criminal record, Edmundo has not been able to get a stable job. Ignacio (Mané de la Parra) traveled to Italy with Chelito, his girlfriend, but little by little her new profession and Ignacio's studies separated them. This led Ignacio to return to Mexico. The love and solidarity of the Chavero family will unite them in a single effort and objective when adversity confronts them again, embodied in the vileness of Rómulo Ancira, who threatens to destroy the happiness of Refugio and her family.
