Plot
Clemencia Astudillo is a young, humble woman who falls in love with Luis Francisco Vilarte, the spoilt and illegitimate son of Giovanni Tallamonti. After his father's death, Luis Francisco leaves for Europe to enjoy his inheritance and father's businesses without knowing that Clemencia is pregnant. Clemencia tries to inform Luis Francisco about her condition, but his mother Amada, a cold and calculating woman, lies to her that Luis Francisco is in Brazil and wants nothing to do with her. Without any form of income, Clemencia was left in the abject poverty and suffered until one day she woke up in the hospital without her baby with the doctor informing her she cannot have children. Devastated, she seeks comfort in Augusto Talamonti, the doctor who treated her.

Twenty years later, Clemencia is happily married to Augusto with their 3 adopted children: Enzo and the twins Gina and Marife. Young orphan Milagros who was raided up in an orphanage by nuns come to look fora job at Clemencia's successful company and falls in love with Enzo, Clemencia's son.

Meanwhile, in Europe, Luis Francisco is bankrupt after gambling away his inheritance. Following Amada's advice to go and demand his share of the inheritance from his half-brother Augusto who doesn't know of his existence, he discovers that Clemencia is married to his half-brother Augusto.

Popular opinion is it's a bit problematic. especially since her twins end up losing their virginity to the same man who decides he likes the less party freak one after he initiated the relationship with her sister. the more docile sister in turn abandons her life long goal to be a nun for him. Seriously she worked her whole life for that soo, no, very problematic.
