Premise
The lives of three friends, Marie de Guzmán, Rina Fuentes, and Ella Domingo are intertwined. After a huge fire separated the girls from their respective families, they decided to band together as a unit they can call a family.
They have overlooked one big obstacle: Katrina Rodriguez will never allow the three to live in peace. Katrina is out to destroy each of them because Marie is the daughter of Katrina's former lover; Rina knows too much of Rodríguez family's secrets; and Ella is the sole heir of the ₱800-million wealth of the Rodríguez family. Katrina's nemesis is Doña Corazón, who is ready to stop her; as her long-lost aunt, she knows Katrina's darkest secrets.
