| SUMMARY Warning - The folowing summary contains some plot spoilers for the first main arc of the series DO NOT read on if you dont wish to know. ( This summary does not reveal the ending ) Years ago, when the boys were young, Jose Carlos Larios was playing with a wooden spinning top and in an accident he put it into his mother, Catalina's, eye. Damaging it forever, having to have it replaced with a glass eye and covered with a patch for the rest of her life. Jose Carlos never lived down the guilt he felt. That's how the story goes ... Catalina Larios has a secret. When her husband, Carlos Larios, the head of the large-scale pharmaceutical company Lar-Creel, discovered it he not only threatened to change his will but to also get a divorce after that.With no options left to conceal her deceit, Catalina poisons her husband's glass of orange guice that same morning before he leaves for work with a new drug the company had recived days before. Driving to work, the poison takes hold of Carlos, sending his car into the front office of a building on his way to work, killing him in the process. Shocked and concerned for the man, one of the office's young and naive employee's, Leonora Navarro, searches Carlos's body for identification. Finding a buisness card she rings the offices of Lar-Creel and informs them of Carlos's "accident". As a result, Leonora meets Alejandro Larios, one of Carlos's two sons ( the other Jose Carlos Larios ). At the reading of her husband's will, Catalina learns that she has been betrayed as his empire that they built is now in the hands of whichever of his two sons gives the family thier next son and heir. Although both of his sons have some difficulty in doing this as Jose Carlos ( although involved in the buisness ) is uninterested in the family buisness and Alejandro's wife Vilma is infertile. Although they could adopt, provided that no one in the family know, Alejandro desires a son of his own blood. Thus, in secret, Alejandro begins to date Leonora with the plan of taking the baby from her and passing it off as his and Vilma's child. Meanwhile, Vilma begins to wear pillows underneath her clothes to give the appearance that she is expecting, much to the curiosity of Catalina. Not to be outsmarted, Catalina travel's to New York to confirm her suspicions that there is no way that Vilma could be expecting, and later invites Vilma and a doctor to talk about it together. Eyeing her surroundings, Catalina picks up a poker for the fireplace, thrusting it into Vilma's stomach, puncturing the pillow she was wearing and uncovering the lie in true Catalina Creel style. Meanwhile, Alejandro and Leonora marry and Leonora falls pregnant as Catalina learns of her favoured son's scheme to bring the new heir to the family.In the midst of all this, Catalina continues to eliminate all that stand in her way that threaten to reveal the secret she holds. Leonora gives birth to "el pequeno" Edgar, the new Larios heir, as he is quickly snatched away to the care of Alejandro and Vilma. Waking some time later, Leonora quickly becomes wise to the situation and escapes from the clinic, pleading with a gas staion attendent for help and a ride back to Mexico. One year later on Edgar's first birthday we see a defiant and stronger Leonora vowing to take her due revenge on Alejandro and get back her son. Making her own scheme, she befriends Jose Carlos, Alejandro's brother, and after a short while they too marry. Upon returning to Mexico, and much to the shock of its residents, Leonora moves into the Larios home along with her godmother and and her new husband by her side. |
