[1][2] In 1965 Aurelio Sandoval (Carlos Márquez) a wealthy landowner who owns "Las Tapaditas" in Guárico, Venezuela awaits the birth of a healthy male child, but Blanca, his wife, gives him a daughter who at first seems to have been stillborn.

Only he will not know it until twenty years later, since between the midwife Domitila and the nanny Eulalia they exchange the girl for the newborn son of a laborer who, being already an orphan of a father, ends up being the same as a mother right at birth.

Jorge Luis Sandoval (Víctor Cámara) is raised with all the comforts and luxuries in Caracas, Venezuela and is studying medicine.

Topacio Sandoval (Grecia Colmenares) lives in a humble ranch with Domitila and grew up in the mountains as an orphan without studies until, as a teenager, Dr. Martín Buitrago (Alberto Marín) took her under his protection and took her daily to his house to instruct her, with the purpose of converting her on his wife as an adult.

Despite being engaged to his spoiled and possessive cousin Yolanda Sandoval (Jeannette Rodríguez) Jorge Luis falls in love with Topacio.

On the other hand Yolanda, oblivious to everything, in turn falls in love with a peon named Evelio Mercedes Montero (Pedro Lander) but her mother Hilda, who is Aurelio's sister-in-law, forces her to continue with Jorge Luis because they are both broke and they only have the path of marry him to maintain her social status.

Jorge Luis, who suspects that Topacio's blindness has a cure, takes her to Caracas, where she is examined by his ophthalmologist friend Dr. Daniel Andrade, who confirms his suspicions.

Immediately Jorge Luis rescues Topacio from the house of Dr. Buitrago but he threatens him and warns him that she will return of her own free will.
