The older sibling Katrina (Shaina Magdayao) is eager to shed her old life for the gilded world of her rich and powerful adopted parents and she shuts off the memory of her younger sister.

Their paths cross as young adults but they do not recognize each other. They are in love with the same man, Gael Ojeda (Paulo Avelino). Their conflict becomes more dangerous than just a love triangle and sibling rivalry.
