Isabel is a well-defined architect who sees her marriage to Danilo crumble when she discovers that he has lost almost everything he had in gambling, showing an uncontrolled face. She is even more devastated when her sister mysteriously dies in a water accident, leaving her in custody of her niece. Danilo doesn't belong to Norberto's clandestine casino, who becomes obsessed with Isabel when he meets her and who is willing to do anything to have her, even hiding his true face and the fact that he is largely responsible for his sister's death. He is the lover of Diva, Doris' bivitamin twin, who wants revenge on Isabel, since the architect was responsible for sending them to a juvenile detention at the age of 16, while they tried to steal her car to get easy money.
