The story of infidelity and its consequences.
Inés is prepared to do whatever it takes to keep up the appearances of her happy family; she is manipulative, to the point of becoming pregnant to force Ernesto to marry her. She is not the only bad guy here though, as Ernesto also manipulates her. Inés feels like she is her husband´s “mother”, the one who organizes and orders his life. He does not take too much care of his daughter and even sees her as a competitor for her father´s attention. Inés is cautious and calculating and goes so far as to open up a secret bank account to keep her money, just in case. Despite this, she always looks at the silver lining, which leads her to justify and minimize infidelity.
A red heart crossed by an “I love you” and signed by “All Yours” reveals that her husband is cheating on her with his secretary Alicia. After the death of his lover, she begins an investigation and discovers secrets surrounding her husband that begin to destroy the image of her perfect family.
