Plot

María Hernández is a 15-year-old scavenger who lives on the outskirts of the city. She loses her godmother, Casilda, who before dying begs the local priest not to leave María to fend for herself. The priest asks one of his benefactors, Don Fernando de la Vega, to let Maria work as a servant in his house. Instead, Don Fernando brings her in as his ward, making her a target of hostility for his wife, Victoria, and her niece, Soraya.

María falls in love with the dashing but drunken and disorderly son of the house, Luis Fernando, and must fight Soraya for his affections. When Luis Fernando and María finally get married, he walks in on an innocent embrace between María and his brother Vladimir and storms out blinded with jealousy. He does not believe María's baby is his, so when it is born, Maria gives it away during a temporary bout of insanity. Luis Fernando rescues her from an asylum and adopts another child for her, but she never loses hope of recovering the son she lost.

Final

Soraya kidnaps Maria and brings her to an old cabin. She tells her how much she hates her, how her life has been downhill ever since she arrived at de la Vega’s mansion. They start to fight and Soraya throws Maria to the floor, causes her to lose consciousness. When Maria wakes up, she remembers everything and fights with Soraya again. When the police and Luis Fernando arrives, Soraya decides that if she can't live happily, then no one can. She set the house on fire, but her dress catches on fire and thus begins to burn her alive. Maria and Luis Fernando manages to escape from the flames and they celebrating their anniversary with grand reunion with their family and friends.
