Synopsis[]
Franco Urzúa is a prestigious lawyer who made his career based on ethics and moral values, always dedicated to defend the most needy. He lives a marriage of ups and downs with Roberta, a woman who endangers the happiness of the family due to her bipolarity. Both are parents of Natalia, a somewhat spoiled girl, but of good heart.
Franco's life changes completely when he is faced with Alba's case, a woman who is detained for committing euthanasia on her husband, who was on his deathbed. Franco is moved by her story and decides to help her be exempted. Alba's goal is to regain custody of her son, who is under the care of schizophrenic Ingrid, Alba's sister-in-law who hates her. Between so much complicity, Franco and Alba fall madly in love.
Meanwhile, Natalia also suffers from hot flashes. After being drugged by her boyfriend Julian, she runs over Paolo and leaves him paraplegic. Paolo's career is now destroyed and he is abandoned by his bride, Katia. What neither of the two imagined is that in the midst of Paolo's frustration and Natalia's guilt, a love would be born between them.
